in their fight for a good public option, health care for america now has unleashed a new campaign that addresses the core problem of affordable health insurance coverage - namely, where are you gonna go? there's no competition: “health insurance companies are exempt from antitrust regulations, and as a result, a small number of very large companies have almost total control of the health insurance marketplace. these big insurers aren’t competing for our business by lowering costs. instead, they are driving up prices as high as the market will bear because they know we have nowhere else to turn,” said richard kirsch, national campaign manager, health care for america now.

dress code - it is advised that you come to work dressed according to your salary. if we see you wearing prada shoes and carrying a gucci bag, we assume you are doing well financially and therefore do not need a raise. if you dress poorly, you need to learn to manage your money better, so that you may buy nicer clothes, and therefore you do not need a raise. if you dress just right, you are right where you need to be and therefore you do not need a raise. sick days - we will no longer accept a doctor`s statement as proof of sickness. if you are able to go to the doctor, you are able to come to work. personal days - each employee will receive 104 personal days a year. they are called saturday & sunday. bereavement leave - this is no excuse for missing work. there is nothing you can do for dead friends, relatives or co-workers. every effort should be made to have non-employees attend to the arrangements. in rare cases where employee involvement is necessary, the funeral should be scheduled in the late afternoon. we will be glad to allow you to work through your lunch hour and subsequently leave one hour early. toilet use - entirely too much time is being spent in the toilet. there is now a strict three-minute time limit in the stalls. at the end of three minutes, an alarm will sound, the toilet paper roll will retract, the stall door will open, and a picture will be taken. after your second offense, your picture will be posted on the company bulletin board under the "chronic offenders category". anyone caught smiling in the picture will be sanctioned under the company`s mental health policy. lunch break - skinny people get 30 minutes for lunch, as they need to eat more, so that they can look healthy. normal size people get 15 minutes for lunch to get a balanced meal to maintain their average figure. chubby people get 5 minutes for lunch, because that`s all the time needed to drink a slim-fast. thank you for your loyalty to our company. we are here to provide a positive employment experience. therefore, all questions, comments, concerns, complaints, frustrations, irritations, aggravations, insinuations, allegations, accusations, contemplations, consternation and input should be directed elsewhere.
