After trying multiple insurers and brokers, Romundt began to realise that the cruise ship industry was, as he put it, “plagued by over-regulation”. (Along with airlines and nuclear power, according to Harris, it’s in “the top three”.)

Airlines are loving "over regulated?" Are you loving kidding me?
Motherfucker, this vehicle is holding 300+ people and is careening through the sky and if ANYTHING goes wrong up there they all die 100%. Of loving course there's regulations to hell and back. Airplanes are always paperwork hell because PEOPLE DIE if anyone so much as glances at a shortcut.

My dad worked as an airline mechanic for 30 years. He was an amazing mechanic, rule follower and all, and he described his work as 50% paperwork. That paperwork would then get transferred to a massive office building with hundreds of office workers that sort the rest of the poo poo from there.

In recent years, though, the airline industry has been relying more and more on cheap 3rd party mechanic work. The process goes like this; airline gets a cheap deal for maintanance work, it gets "done," the plane comes back to the real in-house mechanics to check the work, and they find a whole bunch of botched work that needs comepletely redone which makes the plane massively behind schedule. Stuff like misaligned rivit holes and straight up missing bolts, mismeasurements and the like. Real horrific poo poo.

Oh, and does the airline save money in the end? Nope. The planes coming back routinely need things redone, needing basically taking apart the whole plane and resulting in the whole 3rd party being a massive waste of time and money. But for whatever reason, the executives up high love it enough to continue doing it for a decade+.

What states are these 3rd party maintenance repairs happening from? Texas and Alabama, from what I've heard.

(This is all poo poo I hear from my dad. He's retired now.)

When we were younger you needed black dress shoes to get into any decent pub for some idiot reason, so if someone forgot we'd have to smuggle the same pair out and back in a few times to get everyone in.

You know I am not really your father.





this reminded me of an incident from last year so i went to look up what happened...

last year in Aug 2020, a woman, debra hunter, was caught on video coughing on another woman, heather sprague, who at the time was being treated for brain cancer. video went viral, the woman with cancer filed charges and the woman was arrested and was taken to court.

https://www.firstcoastnews.com/arti...37-e88a68a1871b

quote:

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — "My kids should not have to pay the price for my mistake."

Citing thousands of text messages, emails, social media postings and "even hand-delivered letters," the woman now widely known as "the Pier 1 cougher" asked a judge to consider the backlash she has endured since the June incident.

Debra Hunter said her children "continue to suffer indignities caused by my mistake [...] embarrassed, chastised and mocked by both their peers as well as adults. Each of my three children have lost nearly every friend they had."

first off. it is hosed up to harass the kids. you can't really do anything about their peers shunning them but if you're an adult and you went to harass her kids.. yeah you're not any better.

but i have no sympathy for the mother.

quote:

In a three-page letter to Duval County Judge Ruth, Hunter said she was not seeking "mercy" but instead wanted him to understand what led up to the incident and the intensity of the backlash she and her family endured.

She said the family underwent a series of traumatic events in the months prior, including a near fatal boat accident and a house fire that destroyed their home and most of their belongings.

"My daughter was alarmed when she noticed a stranger recording the three of us with her phone. Admittedly I was immediately infuriated and demanded this customer to stop filming my kids. In the heat of the moment, I over reacted in an over protective manner which ultimately led to my retaliation on this stranger, the victim. And that highly regrettable, split second, knee jerk reaction has cost my family dearly."

quote:

Hunter, though contrite, alluded to this in her own letter to the judge, saying, "I often wonder what it would be like if every one of us, as the flawed human beings we are, had their worst moments reduced to a short video for all the world to see and judge."

Hunter's next sentence hearing is scheduled next month.
i have done some stupid things probably.. but i don't think any that mounted to simple assault. like it's one thing if you just yelled at the woman or whatever.. but you purposely coughed on her.

keep in mind she was caught on camera because she was screaming at employees at pier 1, which is why the woman started filming. like in her statement she doesn't explain why a woman was recording her.. (because you were being an rear end in a top hat).

the victim, the one with brain cancer, testified in the virtual court hearing that the woman debra hunter, was yelling/bullying employees at pier 1 for at least 15 minutes before she started recording... it had been going on longer because when she was walking in the woman was already yelling.

why was she yelling at pier 1 employees? because she had come to the store to return an item... except she didn't have the item she only had a photo of the item on her phone. apparently all that stress made her forget how "ITEM RETURNS" work. the woman yelling also said that her daughter told her about the woman filming.. while the filmer testified that she became the target when the woman noticed her filming.

anyways. she got 30 days in jail. $500 fine, 1 year probation and was ordered to pay the other woman's covid-19 test.

Everyone into it is either old as gently caress and already has kids who are crushingly embarrassed by them, or are so utterly unfuckable their own crusty gym socks tell them "not tonight honey, I have a headache" so it doesn't affect their reproductive success anyway.

Granted, I didn’t read the whole study but a lot of things can damage sperm production and then a month or two later be fine. So I wonder how long the effects of horse paste last but I’d be shocked if it was for life.

There are tons more chuds raised in Fox News than I’m comfortable with. Was at an out door wedding party last weekend and the brides family had a ton of chuds talking about how to counterfeit vaccine cards and that vaccine receivers really spread the Covid, and they were all mid 30s with 4-5 kids already.

He’s outraged that someone would denigrate his service as one of are troops, and he’s also a reserve Noble who is a loving “public affairs officer”

I tots followed up on the last case itt because the aftermath was really funny too and you could watch the whole thing on zoom court.

Some white lady demanding a refund for an item she didn't have by showing employees a picture of the item on her phone while throwing a fit and refusing to wear a mask. Cancer patient who was shopping while listening to this mad woman berate employees got in line behind her, was coughed on by the violently anti-mask karen. As a defendant she could have gotten off with community service and a fine, but she couldn't shut the gently caress up about her, her, HER. So the judge gave her 30 days in jail and she missed her sons graduation as a result. Judge explicitly mentioned her unapologetic appeal as the reason he was recommending that she serve time.

e;f;b but again, she got the jail time because she was an unapologetic oval office that complained about how people hated her now instead of, y'know, apologizing. Judge gave her jail time because of that

I just can't stop thinking about this. It's a level beyond parody. He has to be in the post-horsepaste brain fog at this point.

Double-post, but I don’t give a gently caress.


Kelleyanne Conway and George Conway, who are for all intents and purposes the same person with the exact same loving goals, I predict their next move is a reality TV show.

“Growing up Conway” or “Conway Family Values” or some poo poo, where they try to parley their fake “She’s a radcon, he’s a Republican strategist gone rogue/libtard, and they have teenage children—- how can this possibly work?!?” loving shtick into millions of dollars

I do honestly feel sorry for Claudia the same way I feel sorry for the children of Josef and Magda Goebbels, but it doesn’t change the fact that I think they should all be completely shunned by society for all eternity.

If Claudia is really what she claims to be, she can rise up and avoid the publicity grave they are going to be buried in, that then gets pissed on 24/7.

Those TikTok videos she posted where her mudder screamed at her seem to show that she is a legitimately abused child, but the American Idol bullshit and the buildup to it really makes me wonder. She’s a child either way, so I hope she breaks the right way. She still has that option.

Kellyanne, on the other hand, is all out of options. gently caress this rear end in a top hat, obviously, but ESPECIALLY… gently caress her oval office of a husband who has never been doing anything other than working angles for maximum profit. George was all onboard the Trump Train until he wasn’t chosen for “Reichminister for Court-Friendly Approach to Facism” or some such post.

I’ve been around long enough and seen enough Trumpism that I know this ridiculous idea of Trumper/Trump-Hater couple thing simply doesn’t exist. They have all either divorced, murdered each other, or plan to divorce or murder each other and George’s shtick is now offensive, at best.
