Irony of the day

I am doing some training for work. And it is compliance training and they state failure to do something can result in 10 years in prison, and the company may take action up to termination. Gee I think the prison would be more of a concern than losing your job.....

I think some company's think they're more important than anything else.

Not from experience.

NO, you have it backwards, losing a job would be the worst, no pay, housing, food. Whereas prison, you have three meals a day, a roof over your head, roommates and no bills to speak of, although I have had no experience in this situation, the prison part.

We were joking about this at work, and someone pointed out "If you are married the romancing you want you don't get, but in jail you will get all the romancing you don't want."

Reminds me of Medicare Part G.
Say you are an older senior citizen and can no longer take care of yourself and need Long-Term Care, but the government says there is no Nursing Home care available for you. So, what do you do? You opt for Medicare Part G.
The plan gives anyone 75 or older a gun (Part G) and one bullet. You are allowed to shoot one worthless politician. This means you will be sent to prison for the rest of your life where you will receive three meals a day, a roof over your head, central heating and air conditioning, cable TV, a library, and all the health care you need. Need new teeth? No problem. Need glasses? That's great. Need a hearing aid, new hip, knees, kidney, lungs, sex change, or heart? They are all covered!
As an added bonus, your kids can come and visit you at least as often as they do now!
And, who will be paying for all of this? The same government that just told you they can't afford for you to go into a nursing home.
And you will get rid of a useless politician while you are at it. And now, because you are a prisoner, you don't have to pay any more income taxes!
Is this a great country or what?

They the POLITICIAN's now have only 9 years 3 months, to wait.
