    Where I do my inspection work these days, they're doing weekly COVID tests, for anyone who spends more than 10 minutes in the building. No cost, and I get a weekly reassurance that I'm not going to get my GF (who basically has no immune system, thanks to her RA treatments) sick.
    Bunch of the guys there have been bitching and moaning about the company-provided COVID tests, whining mostly about how sticking the swab up their nose makes them feel funny....

    ....so imagine how much I was rolling my eyes today, when a few of those same people got all sorts of excited, about getting free at-home COVID tests! I'm thinking, "WTF??" :rolleyes:

    $10 per test roughly is what you can buy them for in the store.

    I bought a test kit back around Thanksgiving,, sick as a dog ,, couldn't focus on the words in the directions to figure out how to use it ,, threw the pack in the corner,, paid 20 something bucks for a 2 pack test . Wonder if I could double my money.
    Might need to try putting it on ebay .

    Early pictures of the swab, they were leaving particles behind.
    It pays to own a microscope.

    Well, I don't get it. I mean, WTH? So, let's say I get Covid. What are the doctors going to do about it?
    "Go home and drink plenty of fluids and call us before you die." So, why in the hell do I need a test. I know if I am sick and you won't treat even if I got Covid because you have nothing to treat me with that your Powers say is okay to use so...Why in the hell get tested?

    Maybe I am missing something here, but I don't think so. I was at the doctor Thursday because I have had this cough that won't go away. And, this is exactly what I told my doctor. What is the sense in getting tested? And she didn't say anything... I understand if one must get tested for work but other than that...

    So, if one of you can enlighten me...?

    " Can someone enlighten you "
    Answer ,,, No,, it doesn't make any sense.

    Driving thru a major town the other day ,, and there must have been at least 75 cars I line to be tested for the crud .
    The world's political system has people brainwashed some how . I got tested before Christmas, not because I wanted to ,, but because the doc wouldn't see me until I did get tested ,, then I didn't even get to see the doc . Stupid .
    Had to get tested this past Saturday because I have a surgery tomorrow.

    I'm like you ,, if you get sick ,, stay home and do whatever you did last time you got sick ,,, because if you get tested and are positive,,, they're not going to nothing for you . Go home take adprin , drink lots of water ,, and call mebbefore you die ,, so you can become a statistic .

    Well, there are some employers out there that require you to either be boosted to hell or test negative before coming into work. Or after getting covid, require you to have 2 negative tests a few days apart before returning to work.
    So there is that.
    Heck, I even heard tell of some families requiring neg. test before joining in the holiday festivities.

    But before anyone gets their panties in a bunch (I'm referring to anyone not directed at bandit). If you don't like their rules, you don't have to play their game. One could start their own business and have your own rules. But in most cases, if someone has rules in working for them or transacting with them. You either agree to their rules or take your business elsewhere.

    You are free to have your own rules and I'm free to not accept your social contract.

    If a store segregates against jews, blacks, whites, unvaccinated, yoopers, rednecks, dog owners, gays, straights I'm going to not enter your store.
    Only thing i can get behind is discriminating against idiots. i just wish the world wouldn't keep creating so many new ones.

    Just a tin foil thought
    what if the powers who knot to be have sent tainted swabs loaded with crap they want in you !! AS POST # 7 has listed
    They have LIED , forced there BS etc. If you have a death insurance policy on you and you took the poison jab , and die , you have signed saying that you gave consent for the jab and your no longer covered , because it is know of the side effects , You might not of known , but it is listed.

    Just a Thought of hummmmmmmmmmmmmm !

    Nah, the insurance companies wouldn't pay off, Millions of people dying would kill their ability to pay and bankrupt them.
    Not to mention that if the government kills off the tax payer, how are they going to fight their wars and pay off their bills already owed.
    Thinking that there may be too much tinfoil on that.
    Eventually breathing your last breath will also kill ya in the end.

    No VisuTrac, if one's employer wants you tested then of course that is a legitimate reason in my book and I stated as such in my original post. However, many here are not working. For me, I am retired and lay about eating grapes, fed to me by half-dressed, sweet-faced, singing nymphs and contemplating my navel and the evils of the Biden Administration. I don't need their stinking test to tell me I am sick. Hell, every sickness now I assume is covid.

    @SB21 "and call mebbefore you die ,, so you can become a statistic ."

    Well, I was thinking more to police up the body because the damn ground is too frozen to bury and I got too much snow and ice for pyre but yeah, we certainly want to keep their records correct because we know the CDC (Center for Deception and Control) is all about making sure we get the true and correct information.
