Wdym by 'bid for them'? Won't the MGA want to get rid of their contracts in an area that's about to be hit by a hurricane ASAP?


You need a large workforce of adjusters to handle big events like a hurricane, but you don’t need them all the time. So catastrophe adjusters are often independent contractors.

Pay is good but hours are long, and you are often deployed far away from home.

swoole makes websockets extremely easy and fast.

webRTC is a beast with the STUN server needs better handled elsewhere.
