I will make a prediction - that will not happen. Certainly won't happen by 2030.

I've been at my new job for a month now. I'm working through a recruiter for the first 3 months.
The recruiter's accounting department just accidentally CC'd me on an invoice to the company's accounting department here with a copy of their invoice.
Now that I know how much the company is REALLY paying... I can't wait to negotiate when I go full time.
If it's not broken, fix it until it is

Well, you should CC to us(CPian) too. It might help for future
|
|

Might not be an accident.

Do not forget that if the recruiter company is paying the employee tax and benefits the amount will be much hire. When a company I worked for would bid a project they would bid you at three times your hourly amount to cover everything.

“We imported them from a supplier in the UK as we couldn’t find anyone locally." Nooo.  The only, and properly local, delicacy I've ever tried is fried flying ants, and they were sort of good, slightly nutty, if any real taste at all.
No object is so beautiful that, under certain conditions, it will not look ugly. - Oscar Wilde

You cannot (legally) smoke or drink alcohol on California Beaches (apart from Paradise Cove) though that doesn't always stop people. Oddly, you can do either on Florida beaches. Not sure of other places. The Kommunist State of Kalifornia has some really draconian, leftist-inspired and completely dumb laws.

Yes, and it's wonderful.

Of course, you can walk off the beach, perhaps to the car park, smoke a few and chug some beer before returning to your chair.

I remember when they passed the public smoking laws in California. It was so nice to not have to deal with smoke hardly at all anymore. I say to those laws.

Since it causes cancer and other health issues, one could say that everyone is "allergic" to the smoke.

Rather certain that for the average person spending the day on a beach in California is going to have a greater negative potential impact on their health than anything besides fantasy land stories associated with second hand smoke on those same beaches.

What part of the beach and spending the day on it did you not understand in that post and which I specifically pointed out?

You made it clear that you believe second hand smoke in a beach setting will do nothing. Don't expect me to participate in your delusions.

And you made it clear that you have no understanding of all associated risks at a beach nor the relative nature of each.

Sharks. Meteors hitting the earth. Fat guys with no shirt on. Sure, I understand all the risks. What else is there?

It makes more sense than banning public drinking.
