Next on the firing line: overweight workers.

"We have to work on eating habits and getting people to exercise. But if you're obese, you're (legally) protected," Weyers said.

He has brought in an eating disorder therapist to speak to workers, provided eating coaches, created a point system for employees to earn health-related $100 bonuses and plans to offer $45 vouchers for health club memberships.

The 71-year-old Weyers, who said he has never smoked and pronounced himself in good shape thanks to daily runs, said employees' health as well as saving money on the company's own insurance claims led him to first bar smokers from being hired in 2003.

Uh, huh. Now you see. What do the nay-sayers have to say for themselves now? "Oh, eating at McDonald's and being fat is different" they said. I told you all so. Stand by and sacrifice your rights if you want to but it only gives them more leverage. If you give them an inch they will take a mile.

But, hey, you don't smoke so let employers only hire non-smokers. It only benefits you right?
Hey, you're not overweight so let employers only hire skinny people. It only benefits you right?
What's next? No jobs for persons who have more than one child at home? Maybe they'll next say that multiple children at home cause un-due stress that is directly linked to diminished job performance. Oops, you've got two kids. No job for you. What's that? It's not fair? Oh, but I thought you said they're a privately owned company and can do whatever they want?

If I owned a company I would fire all the lesbians.

I would make all my employees put tracking devices in their cars and if they drive over 40 mph, they're fired.

Also, they're not allowed to have electricity in their house, and must call me "Massa" at all times.

At the same time it should be at the restaurants' disgression as to whether or not they allow thier employees to smoke on the premises.

They should not, however, have the right to fire employees for what takes place off the clock, off company property, and in the employees' home.


Well said. I agree with you on this, 100%.

Haha I'm sure before the place wasn't a wall of smoke as soon as you opened the front doors. Many places, at least here, have their smoking employees smoke outside. Hell most people I know who smoke go outside even at home to smoke.

Also.. you're wrong.. NOT wearing your seatbelt DOES increase premiums a bit. Thats the only reason we have seatbelt laws. People that don't wear their seatbelts generally get worse injuries in a car accident.. causing your hospital bill to be tens of thousands of dollars more... which the insurance companies have to pay...



My mother works for State Farm as a representative running an office. I called her and she said that it's ot possible to edit the options to show that you don't wear a safety belt. It's illegal in every state to NOT wear a safety belt if you are the operator, thats like saying that you want to get insurance for your frequent drunk driving. They can't insure you knowing that you are intending to break the law. What a 'tard
Quote:
Don't believe me? Call your insurance company right now and tell them to modify your coverage to reflect that you don't wear a seatbelt... and then get a quote.



Ok, I did. Your turn. Name the company that you use and the change in the premiums and I"ll call them to confirm that they have an option like that.
Quote:
Hell.. your premiums go up just on the COLOR of your car. :P fucked up, huh?


No, it's not. It's not fucked up because it's not true.
