This is actually a great thread.


Canvasing for children's charity, a.k.a.: sponsoring a child:

- The money you give actually doesn't go directly to the child, it goes to the community or charity center the child lives near. So don't believe it when you hear "the money goes straight to the child". The only thing the kid gets is to be allowed to participate in the charity program.

- It actually takes 6 sponserships for one child to live off. Even if the kid has a sponsor, he/she won't live adequately unless the charity finds him/her 5 more sponsors or so.

- Non-for-profit organizations have an overhead as much as 45%, but the best ones have only 20%.

- Charities hire "middlemen" for million dollar contracts. The middlemen are basically private sector companies that have a responsibility to bring the charity certain amount of sponsors/donations in any means, usually canvasing on the street.

- The people on the street who work for the middlemen, who in turn works for the charity, will say and do almost anything to get you to sponsor a child. They have a quota and get bonuses every time they get people to sign up.

- The same thing goes for other non-profit organizations, like for example, greenpeace. They do the exact same thing.

Hardly any independent truck drivers follow the CDL laws. Most will only fill there logbook out to a miniumum and then if they get pulled over (which is very rare) they quickly write in some made up hours.

Wendy's
The chili is made from unused meat the day before. The pieces that break or cant be sold
are tossed in a bin and sit around most of the day and then are used the next morning
for chili. The process is not that bad if the correct steps are followed to cool, handle and store the meat correctly. Many times they are not. Although this may have been changed since its been years since I worked there.

Various restaurants
This goes without saying but do not mess with the people that make or bring out your
food. Restaurant staff does not wash hands nearly enough.

Hospital
If you are a trauma victim you will get a finger far up your ass to check for internal bleeding when the dr's are assessing you in addition to being stripped butt naked in front of 10 to 15 people. Many trauma victims that spend alot of time in intensive care units (ICU's) end up getting some nasty multi drug resistant infections from overworked nurses and ignorant house keepers that dont clean properly.

this thread is unraveling the underlying perverse sickness humans have to make a profit.

... another thing i can add is that political opinion polls mean absolutely nothing. the surveys are paid for by 'sponsors' who have their own agendas and the questions are biased... also i would sometimes randomly fill out samples just to meet my quotas.
