That guy rocks!

I can see how he could get away with firing workers who smoke, but i'm not sure about fat people...

Either way... if I ever turn nxor.org into a real company I am SO not gonna hire smokers Very Happy

How about you hire them, give them a really nice pay - then a few days/weeks later you tell them you'll fire them unless they quit Twisted Evil

hehehe

comes to think of it - if fat people were to loose their jobs, they would have to eat less. Thinking

So not only do they become healthier - there will be more food for the others Laughing

although we shouldn't be firing all these people, we shold be making them do hard manual labour; like digging mines, or being medical research subjects...
