WTF is going on in Boston?

[sok]

From what I have seen the extra cruiser on the site is the one with the radar gun.
It's the third one a mile down the road that will pull you over.
At least on the Mass pike.
And the contractors have to hire a UNION police detail in MA.
Because it's Massachusetts.
And the UNIONS say so.
Argument for another thread/day.

(Ever have you life threatened because you not in a union? I have. More than once.)

Hey SOK let's not make this a union bashing thread alright.


Nevemind all the cops that had to stay late and cover shifts, but what about the doctors, nurses, and ambulance drivers who were told to wait around for a possible catastrophe.

Yup...

I can't believe an organization would do this without informing local authorities ahead of time. Someone had their air supply cut off by their bum cheeks on this one.

I predict the city lawyers will look for some violated city ordinance and if they find one , Turner will get a huge bill to cover the cost of the response.

Anyone who thinks a cop would not approach this sort of device with caution in 2007 has the same brain oxygen deficiency as the people who put the devices around the Hub. This is not like a waterballoon with the consequences being wet pants. If they were bombs , someone dies. i'd be very cautious if I were sent to investigate.

Also the idea that after finding one was a hoax , they should just ignore the rest is pretty shallow. . Is there a better way to get a real IED past security procedures than to flood the area with dummy decoys?

Anyway , I hope it costs the network 100 million. You want to make money with advertising stunts ...fine. pay the piper if you're too stupid to do it right.

I guarantee that scaled, it'll cost taxpayers more.

Dude they have this awesome concept in hospitals and trauma units.
Its called "shifts".
You can get hurt any time of day and they'll have the proper care waiting for you.
They have another FASCINATING device. Its called a pager. If you need someone to call you you just call this.. "pager" and it beeps at them with the number! I know, revolutionary. You can thank me later.

Likwid having worked at Brigham & Women's hospital I know how it works, and I know a couple of nurses who work 12-8, and were told they had to stay. You see that when you go to the ER, you usually sit around waiting very lengthy amounts of time to be treated,unless you are bleeding to death. Most hospital er's are vastly understaffed for the amount of cases that present themselves at a given time. Hospitals have emergency plans in place for large scale catastrophes which generally entail forcing shifts to stay, calling in personnel that are off. Maybe the old age is showing on this board, but maybe the younger generation is what's wrong with this crappy world. I mean you don't see us running around killing each other , shooting up schools and such, all these damn video games are making them soft, go out and shoot some hoops for godsake...
