I think the government should be required to give you a receipt when you pay taxes detailing what everything will be spend on.

I worked in retail and there was this one idiot that ended up getting fired because he couldn't get over his racism. He was moaning about immigrants on Facebook afterwards. He didn't lose his job to immigrants, he lost his job because he was being rude to Asian people who definitely weren't interested in his job, as they almost certainly already had better paying once.

These people are their own worst enemies.

I'm convinced that's exactly what they want. Or at least, they think that's what they want, I am ll doubtful that a great deal of thought has actually being put into it.

If it actually happened they would be complaining within about 3 days about the lack of food on the shelves and the lack of fuel in gas stations.

I feel like this is already been litigated. Anyone can refuse to do anything due to their personal beliefs, but they can't actually stop people from getting the service from someone else.

And I do believe you actually have to have already made the objection prior to your employment, otherwise you're now refusing to do part of your job.

Except that it's all cars that do this why would the car being powered by electricity have any bearing. All cars have computers these days.

Except I didn't actually say that. I said that going to a physical location and getting a physical disk and then driving all the way back home is considerably less convenient than streaming content.

I'm happy to favour things they are just not giving me a convenient way to give them money.

I've got no way to play DVDs though I'd have to go and buy a DVD player. Streaming content is much more convenient I would like to be able to do it legally and without hassle. But the content creating companies don't seem to be interested in providing me an option to do that.

Anyway my local library isn't really that local it's a 25-minute drive and probably an hour plus walk up a really steep hill.

Seriously? You think the UK banking sector is competitive?

You must be smoking some powerful stuff.

Clearly you haven't been paying attention over the last couple of weeks because that's exactly what they're doing.

If you're eating the salad more than once a week you're a psychopath and I don't want you working here anyway.

Should have said, yeah but they're your opioids.

You should get bonus points for supporting the business drug dealing operation.
