Train Your Own Replacement

An anonymous reader writes "Yahoo reports on how some employers are asking the workers they're laying off to train their foreign replacements - having them dig their own unemployment graves. 'Almost one in five information technology workers has lost a job or knows someone who lost a job after training a foreign worker, according to a new survey by the Washington Alliance of Technology Workers.' It looks like a real dilemma where if you refuse to hire your replacement, you are fired without severance and are ineligible for unemployment benefits, and if you quit, you don't receive severance and are ineligible for unemployment."

    My poop has blood in it and smells funny. It is also sticky when I probe it with a fork. Anyone know why?

    So the Bush bashing post isn't a troll and gets +3 informative, but the parent which in the same tone and lays out many activities that have also contributed to the current situation is a troll? Whatever.

    Dude, wanna hear a fucked up story? So, Im at the usual weekend frat parties and i've been talking to this girl for the majority of the night. Anyway I ended up going back with her to her dorm. About another 8shots later, we end up fooling around on her bed. So about 10 mins into her giving me head, I had to drop the fattest shit in my life. All my meals were followed by 3tsp of metamucil so I could get lots of fiber in me to combat the carbs a litte. Anyway im holdin my #2 in and finally it goes away. We both end up passing out on her bed, she's butt naked and im in my boxers. I wake up to piss and I find myself covered in shit. It was all over the bed,sheets,etc.... Im freakin out so I did the most horrible thing in the world. She's sleeping with her back towards me, so I take my boxers off, scoop up some shit and gently smear it on the inside of her butt, her lower back, and a little on the back of her hammies. I get dressed and leave... This poor girl is gonna think she did it. I didn't know what else to do though. I have no clue what im gonna do when I end up running into her.
