# I'm a corporate whore
so yes they do... And my soul for good measure.

I lost my soul in South Africa after working at a refinery where thirteen people were killed in a gas pipeline explosion. It took all of about three days to fix the pipeline and get production up again. It didn't matter about the workers (apparently) as they were black.

# I have heard stories of this nature
of this _exact_ nature

"that needs welding"
"I'm not going up there, it's still full of gas, dropping a pin could set it off"
"get one of them then" "You weld that up there and I'll give you a bonus" *bang* "looks like we'll have to get another one"

I think this is the standard MO for the oil/mineral business

it's fucking sick, but hey, think of those lovely 4x4's that do 3 mpg that is a damn right to own!

meh :(

# ah well
if it wasn't for the managed hegemony we'd all be driving around in cars that required no maintenance for 80,000 miles and ran on ambient power

plus the world would be largely at peace and we'd be developing as a species learning new things from each other every day!

man, that's so gay!

loads up the DU's

SOMEONE'S GOTTA PAY FOR MY 4X4!!!

hooooooooyaaaah!
