Once upon a time, when someone wanted something at work without the proper paperwork orders, I used the phrase "No tickee, no laundry!" One of our microbiologists just about fell off her chair. Her grandparents had been in the laundry business in San Francisco.
Folks that WORK for a living I have no problem with. My own family from the German side fled here from Weimar Germany and went from being solid middle class German Bankers to dockworkers in NYC.
They served in the Pacific Campaigns in WW2 because of the lack of trust in "Krauts" much like the Japanese American Go for Broke Battalion served in Germany.
The lazy good for but trouble folks need to be recycled into fertilizer. Call in the Moarbark teams!
You couldn’t make an ad like that these days.
ReplyDeleteNot because of the racism angle, but because foreign invaders don’t do any useful work anymore.
