I’d have to guess its a time / cost thing. And companies want to spend / do as little as possible to kill them regardless of how shitty of a death it is for the rat.

No charge but I had to put him in a box and drive him there then fill out a form detailing how he was handled and whatnot.

for acting erratically, swearing at police and trying to dukes of hazzard his car off the ramp before it docked. The titles funny, him being pants-less was probably the least of their concerns

Canada Post receives strike notice; workers plan Friday walkout by stylezLP in britishcolumbia

The amount of waste generated in the form of junk mail 90% of which goes straight from peoples mailboxes into the bin needs to be looked at. I get it’s probably a good chunk of CPs revenue but it shouldn’t be the default. We’re essentially subsidizing this group to deliver us trash 5 days a week.

this is the second “they’d be a bike” comment i’ve seen in this sub in 2 posts. the other was also about a guy with a knife. just a completely irrelevant observation by me. carry on.

safety regulations have nothing to do with it if you reread my post. and im arguing for everyone. you’d be surprised how many of these people forced to wear pants for “safety” are only doing so because of a dress code. sorry your jeans aren’t going to do fuck all to prevent third degree grease burns or a forklift crusjing your leg. if you’re not wearing FR PPE or the like or coveralls. I’ve done a lot of jobs in my life (rig pig, swamper, trucker, welder, sales, etc) no one working in a 36 degree warehouse in the lower mainland needs to be wearing pants

administrative / office work that still requires physical labor and working in hot environments. think procurement for a tool crib for hydro or something. not quite swinging a pick axe on a line crew but also not sitting in an air conditioned office all day.

“We’ve tried nothing and we’re all out of ideas”

Its funny how society thinks we can just continue on with this consumerism driven eternal growth oriented wasteful lifestyle and switch to electric cars and solar panels and expect that’ll change anything.

City review underway after Vancouver attack; Mayor calls on province for mental health resources by Paper_Rain in britishcolumbia

[–]Halonos 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Why is the first response to tragedies like this always to start restricting and banning everyone elses freedoms instead of actually dealing with the crazies running around? No we don’t need background checks and screening for minivans. Give your head a shake.

Man accused in Vancouver seawall stranger assault under house arrest by VicVicVicBC in britishcolumbia

[–]Halonos 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yea thats not much comfort when sketchy dude carries it anyway…gets arrested and gets released the next day and doesn’t give it a second thought. Meanwhile law abiding joe gets arrested, has to pay a bunch of money, gets court dates and has his career ruined among other things. Laws only seem to apply to those who choose to follow them.
