There's not that many jobs that pay that much around here. But that doesn't answer the question. If you can't get people to apply for a physically demanding job, despite other benefits like stability, unionization, etc, at

“I’m not sure I want to deal with the can of worms it will open, so I’ll tell you privately,” he wrote back. ... and what was told privately is now public... Can somebody that journalisms tell me what just happened?

Can someone please explain what happened. I've seen the video a few times now, so I saw what happened but I am completely ignorant of either regs or etiquettes that allowed it to happen. It's a race right? I would assume grinding

Maybe I'm the only one, and man would I love some way to confirm or deny this (given that Harold Ramis is dead, and was a primary writer, this isn't likely) but did anyone that happens to be an 80's movie nerd pick up on the
