Meadowmufn Posted September 10, 2006 Report Share Posted September 10, 2006 And if you thought by taking this test, you might actually get to be a moderator on this website or if you actually WANT to be a moderator on this website, I suggest you seek professional psychiatric help.

Brian Coltrane Posted September 10, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 10, 2006 I always knew she was nuts, but I've made a point of not bringing it up. It would be insensitive to remark upon it, ya know.Does our workman's comp policy cover mental deterioration, if the cause can be attributed to our environment?

Meadowmufn Posted September 10, 2006 Report Share Posted September 10, 2006 I don't think so, if you voluntarily enter said environment. And like I said, you'd have to be a few fries short of a Happy Meal to wanna work here. Skipper Duke 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
