Can confirm the fall danger. My shower has a built in seat and I slipped once and landed on my shin. Thought I broke my leg. There was a bruise there for 6 weeks.

Humans have been around approx. 200k years. What if we continue for another 5 billion years? That's a lot more descendants than ancestors.

Reply to comment by SuperZapper_Recharge in Domino’s Pizza will soon have 800 electric vehicles for delivery drivers by redingerforcongress

The company that owns the dominos in my area cares 0% for their drivers. I was promised a certain wage while driving and after withholding my pay stubs for 2 months I found out they were under paying me. They did this to a bunch of drivers but the lawyer I spoke with said I didn't work there long enough for it to make a difference to sue. So I quit on the spot.

The location I was at went through 4 store managers in the 2 months I worked there because of how poorly they treated their staff.

Their cars will mean nothing to them.
