I think my son has a FaceTime dentist appointment today. I might have to hold the phone so the dentist can check something. 
Hate to break it to ya, but that's better than 90 percent of Americans

I’ve been on this forum a while, odds are good I’ll need a ball removed sooner or later.

Life with one ball is pretty much the same.
I lean left tho. Otherwise no difference.
they could make an exception, but a lot of places will only do what is legally required of them - partially bc they don't care, and partially bc it opens them up to accusations of favoritism (you let HIM do it but not ME?!), which outweighs the other will depend on the employer.
things need to change, it's not like these assholes can't do with a slightly lower profit share..
When I was 22, I was gainfully employed at a small company, and had a family consisting of a wife and one kid. I got hired at a company (the HUGE frozen food factory) and the first year, I had 12 paid sick days and one paid week of vacation. I worked there for six years, and after two years, I had two weeks vacation and still 12 sick days, paid. After five years, 3 weeks of vacation. I made enough money that my other half working was an option, not a necessity. We had the ability to have a parent home
Health insurance for me was no charge at all. I paid one copay, prescriptions. $5. To insure my family was $50 a month. My son had his tonsils out. I paid $5 for his prescriptions.
Thanks, unions!
Granted, that was the ‘80s, but you can clearly see how greed combined with unions going away have changed things. I know not too many here are working physical labor jobs, but without unions, those jobs would pay even less than they do now. Unions dictated what ALL jobs paid back then, union or not.
