Tales of Bad Bosses

-
There's no end to the horror at www.workingamerica.org, where workers are posting bizarre complaints about supervisors, including: "She made me climb into a Dumpster"; "The boss didn't care workers might be crushed and killed"; and one that seems sure to inspire a movie: "My boss knowingly hired my stalker."

Working America, a group affiliated with the AFL-CIO, is again collecting anonymous tales of woe like this one with its online "My Bad Boss Contest."

And another woman told this tale: "I had been invited to lunch with my boss, along with several of my co-workers. Our boss was known for being, well, cheap. We all prepared ourselves for a fast food lunch at best. We loaded up into his vehicle and he began to drive. He passed several good restaurants - no surprise there - and all of the fast-food options as well. What could possibly be our destination?

"A discount warehouse store! And we were treated to a fabulous lunch of ... free samples!"

Circumcision May Not Impact Sexual Sensation

-
Science Daily — According to a new study published in The Journal of Sexual Medicine, sexual sensation in circumcised and uncircumcised men may not be so different after all. The research, performed in the Department of Psychology of McGill University in Montreal, consisted of genital sensory testing conducted on circumcised and uncircumcised men during states of sexual arousal and non-arousal. Results showed that no difference between the two groups was found in sensitivity to touch or pain. “This study suggests that preconceptions of penile sensory differences between circumcised and uncircumcised men may be unfounded,” says Kimberley Payne, Ph.D, principal author of the study.
