Health Risks

I read an article in the "news"paper today about call center workers. Call center agent or call boy as I like to call it, is a trendy job nowadays. Seems like a long time ago flipping burgers and working retail were seen as opportunities. Now, call centers are the jobs of fashionable hip people who do nothing but speak proper englis with pronun-siation, answer phones and talk to Joe Foreigner. Also, they fuck around a lot while their at it.

According to recent surveys, call boys are most at risk for unprotected sex, STDs, sleep disorders, smoking and drinking. The curious thing about the article is the way it went about phrasing the whole thing. The article implied as if these risks were something external. It's as if that if you work in a call center, you just might get AIDS. Look, stop calling them health risks that call boys "face" and just state the obvious, its just stupid behavior that call boys do. There's nothing risky at all working in a call center but the report rather implies that a lot of call center workers are hedonists.

I don't find anything wrong about it. If you want to have orgies in the break room, hey, its none of my business. But if puss suddenly leaks from your genitals or better yet, get the HIV, it wont stop my from laughing my ass off.
