Re: leaving the US?
03/29I hear you can find a remedy for that if you move to Canada and take part in their healthcare system.
I also hear the culture in the US is abhorrent.
I like to talk to the old ladies who hang out in the town square.

Re: leaving the US?
03/30This bothers me. I think that everyone here would have to agree with me that losing a finger is a big deal. When your finger is ripped off by some grinding machine wouldn't you be like "Holy shit! My finger! That machine that's making the Wendy's chili meat ripped my fucking finger off!!" This is when the alarm should be raised that there is a finger in a compromising situation.
How does it get past that point? Do you think that the company that's making the meat just thought it wouldn't get noticed? Or is it like one of those FDA rules that says you're allowed to have a certain amount of rat feces and insect parts in food, just as long as it stays below the designated levels? -

Re: leaving the US?
03/30I think it's because if anyone loses a body part in the chili plant, they're forced to stand in the corner and be ridiculed by the rest of the workers, who are more agile and dextrous than their clumsy coworker.
I think it's shame on the part of the chili plant employee who lost his/her finger that allowed this detached digit to wiggle past quality control...Not the supposed lax standards of some megaconglomerate food service corporation. Why, who would ever suspect the third largest fast food company in the world to succeed by ignoring the injuries of its thousands of employees?!?!
"The Jungle" happened decades ago! Now is the time of the kinder, gentler corporations! Just ask Dubya!
(...yes, I'm in a pissy mood today) -

Re: leaving the US?
03/30I think the worker was on PCP and didn't realize they lost the digit until later when they were having a beer after work. -

Re: leaving the US?
03/30Do they have one of those signs in the plant that says:
"128 Days Without (Reported) Injury" -

Re: leaving the US?

Re: leaving the US?
04/01Leaving the country is a good idea.. if your past retirement age. for those of us that are still involved in the system we must stay and fight for a return to an America we (ok I) respect and believe in..
The current state of the Nation is THE sign of the coming Apocalypse.

Re: leaving the US?
04/01Okay, what did that have to do with Slaves? I was thinking stereotypical trailer trash.
My neighbor speaks that way, and he's white, as a matter of fact, the only time I hear anyone speak that way, is when they are some lowlife hick on Cops, or that redneck on the Simpsons.......
Why do people who claim to not be racist are always bringing up race? -

Re: leaving the US?
04/01Hell yeah I am fucking racist. Someday my race, the Bavarian Race, will purge this planet of its tainted spawn, so that the Bavarians may once again feel free to walk the planet without pants. Fleur Tile! Fleur Tile!
