Stupid fucking cunt. Smoking is allowed on New Jersey gaming floors and I was the "go to" guy when a trash can was burning. I had five minutes to reach a restaurant or service bar, obtain a five gallon bucket of water, and race across the floor to douse it. Nobody called the fire department or even security. That was my job alone. If I had failed, the fires would have spread to the carpets, the furniture, and the games. So, I have experience dealing with that shit.

André Toulon Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 Holy fucking shit, this can't be real life.

An oil company can hire a PR firm to run a PR campaign for them, or have a PR department of their own. Not everything a company will do is "cost efficient," nor have you demonstrated how any of what you think happens would be more cost efficient in the first place.
