That… sounds pretty brutal.

I wonder if they can coach a guy with broken legs to run in a marathon.

People don’t need to be forced to work, they’ll go just to find purpose. I’m super happy with my employment.

I can understand it. They have to turn every stone to get more hands on because there will be a lot more elders in the years to come that needs care, and less people to do all the jobs. Technology is part of the solution, but we still need everyone able to work.

They will never know what it’s like to have to keep starting over after being kicked in the teeth every time you try to do the right thing

I doubt they’ll implement this.

If in hospital, the only outcome is disability money

and nobody is in the right state of mind to be interviewed for work when under section.
