    I knoooooooow. We're doing the same thing. But fuck me did we get eyes opened to DOT regs today. Completely insane nonsense.
    I do not disagree.

    I may not be the biggest fan of my job, but being good at hunting makes me really good at this job.

    The truth is...to be completely in compliance in my industry, we would never work a single day. We would spend every hour of every day in training, filling out and filing paperwork. By the time we would get to the jobsite, it would be time to go home. Which we also couldn't do, because of time restrictions on driving in a workday.

    Thoughts, prayers, good vibes, whatever you believe in for old-time Match Cutter, K Fan. He's quite sick at the moment for those who aren't connected with him on facebook.

    I work in grocery. I have not gotten sick. My fellow employees have not gotten sick. If the virus were even remotely as contagious as its being presented as, why haven’t entire store staffs who come into contact with hundreds of people per day, thousands per week, all falling ill in mass nationwide?

    He's been in the ICU for the last few weeks with a very fast-growing cancer. His wife has been updating, and he's in some serious pain right now.

    There hasn't been anything on his FB unil forty min ago. I'm not friends with his wife so I hadn't seen any of those updates. It sounds really bad.

    Does anybody have KF's home address? Cuz his entire family is going through hell right now, and perhaps a gift card for some food delivery service will take a bit of the load off, at least for an hour or two.
