  • Was it not her in the truck then? I thought the family had positively identified her by her tattoos.Though, you really can't see much of them in the video that went viral.

  • Linkypoo for those of us who might want one too?

  • Killing people is apparently 100% legal in the US as long as you use a car to do it are politically connected. Same as 90% of other countries, unfortunately.

  • Yeah, because making gun ownership harder/illegal is going to stop the fucking American Taliban from continuing terror attacks...
    They'd barely even notice and half the cops would be with them.

  • Ours trips it's breaker occasionally while mixing dough. It's kind of annoying, but not enough to replace it.

  • Figures. I knew something had to be going on with employee treatment. Every time I go in there it's nearly an entire different crew.

  • That's kind of a false equivalency though. Most laborers are not given any stock-based compensation, and those that are rarely given enough for it to make much of a difference in lives, if they're even employed there long enough to accrue much. If motivation and alignment of interests between shareholders and employees is actually their argument, shouldn't all employees be given similar stock-based compensation then? I don't believe that businesses should be based on shareholder value at all (let alone the fact that the stock and debt markets seem to run our entire economy now), but based on actual, delivered value of services or products to customers. The argument that shareholder value is more important than employee pay and benefits (or human/environmental/legal rights, as it actually plays out) just creates more ways for people to be exploited and held down.

  • We don't have either of those in my area, unfortunately. Trader Joe's is pretty awesome, but even they have some fucky sourcing and, at least at the one here, a really high turnover rate for employees.

  • They also fought against tighter regulation and labeling of organic and GMO products.

  • It's Amazon/Whole Foods' policies that lead to charging such ridiculous prices for their items. You are the same, even if you don't realize it.

  • What does all of this mean?

  • At least in the US, funeral directors are often also embalmers.

  • Came here to say deathcare. Especially those without a degree or license.

  • Why the fuck would you hang out at WinCo foods in the middle of the night. Just get a fucking graveyard shift job.
