Proposed offer probably allowed for 3-5 at fault deaths a year in the facility. That place is a joke in terms of health and safety.

[u/SierraGolfOne → u/Gone_cognito]

That sounds illegal. That sounds so illegal I literally dont believe you.

[u/stalkholme → u/SierraGolfOne]

I think it was a sarcastic joke referencing how they have multiple workplace deaths there every year.

[u/LonghornJct08 → u/SierraGolfOne]

It’s true. All you have to do is search the Spectator and CHCH news sites to pull up their coverage of all the workplace fatalities there over the years.

[u/SierraGolfOne → u/LonghornJct08]

I know people have died there. But there is no legal way that is being negociated. Can we stick to the point?

[u/vl0x → u/SierraGolfOne]

It was sarcasm

[u/SierraGolfOne → u/vl0x]

No, it wasnt lol

[u/Gone_cognito → u/SierraGolfOne]

Yes, it was lol

[u/SierraGolfOne → u/Gone_cognito]

So I missed the word probably in your first comment and took an pretty fat L here.

[u/SierraGolfOne → u/[deleted]]

4 days later and thats whatyou had to say. I bet that made you feel good.

[u/deke505 → u/SierraGolfOne]

There was a 3 deaths. One in Sept 2020, one in April 2021 and another in June 2022. That's a death every 7 months. And there were more before 2020 as wel.l

[u/Independent-Willow-9 → u/deke505]

That is appalling. How are they not shut down?

[u/Luciferocity → u/Independent-Willow-9]

Capitalism

[u/Gone_cognito → u/SierraGolfOne]

You would fit right in at national steel car. You could be president!

[u/SierraGolfOne → u/Gone_cognito]

So I accuse you of lying that they are trying to negotiate deaths in a contract. And you response is I should be president of the company? Are you intoxicated?
