ARI Firings

Total BS. It's a cheesy movie cliche. A FightingArts.com article answers this directly, calling the assertion "one of the oldest American martial arts legends," even though "there is absolutely no basis (for) or reality in it."

According to FightingArts, this myth's roots can be traced both to the post-World War II period in Japan, when traditional martial arts were made illegal, and to the bygone days of professional boxing, when a "common publicity stunt was to have police on hand during a press conference to 'register' the boxer as a deadly weapon."

The AFU & Urban Legends Archive also debunks the claim, writing, "research has failed to reveal any statutory, regulatory or other requirement that boxers -- or anyone skilled in martial arts -- 'register' their hands or any other body part as 'lethal weapons' in the U.S., UK, Canada, or any other common law nation." What the Archive did find, however, is that some U.S. courts have "concluded that a criminal defendant's boxing or martial arts experience should be considered when deciding whether s/he possessed a required intent to cause harm."

Maybe we should register you in the America's Most Gullable contest.

Sorry, that's your observations. I personally know of a least one person who was registered as a deadly weapon, killed another but was not convicted.

"Head count will be reduced by years end" Someone over heard HR on Monday that 65 jobs
must be eliminated by any methods possible. This is not a scare so just wait and see over the next 5 weeks the dead wood that gets trimmed out.

Nothing left there but dead wood how do you sort that out?
All the talent is gone already.
 


















Awfully quiet don’t tell me the holidays are stopping Amgen from firing people next thing you know people will start thinking they care about their employees.

It's not the company anyways. It is all the backstabbing co workers and that are rotten to the core. Also a Hr dept that has willingly caused wrongful terminations that have happened over the past few years. ARI staff management and HR need to realize it is about people not self survival. Everyone still at the site needs to take a hard at the people they their cost employment. Not all have made out better most have not.

Financially I'm not doing is well HOW EVER

Im Back in school for my masters,
Getting therapy for my PTSD
NOT drinking a 5th of bourbon a night,
I quit smoking 2 1/2 packs a day
not having anxiety attacks
My wife loves me again
My daughter is no longer afraid of me,
and the neighbors no longer think I'm psycho.

So yea, I don't miss that toxic waste dump

As for closing ARI
Me I hope the backstabbing fat bastards and lesbian bitches who got me fired, the managers who made it happen and the two faced HR hags who facilitate stay there FOREVER!
I hope ARI lasts into the next century and they all spend their entire lives cutting each other their throats and wondering who's gonna cut theirs. I hope they all have to retire from ARI, or leave when they get hauled out on a gurney by that fantastic medical team.

However a 30% across the board salary reduction would be cool.

Thank you for the colorful description of your life. You are a tad too heavy on your miseries to make this all feel real. Anyway, why would you want the world to know how miserable your life was/is? Frankly, I would be too embarrassed to make it a public forum.

This is just one of many with destroyed lives because of ARI. Never in my life have i worked with so many ruthless co workers and management staff. They will never understand how it is to lose a job in these times until it happens to them and i hope it happens soon. HR and anyone associated with terminations should be ashamed and take a close look at the type of person they are. KG KARMA SOON.

The numbers say more than that. Hope all you bitches hit the unemployment line soon
ARI is a fungus that breeds assholes and nothing or no one good comes out of it.
