Yes it's back PC Madness

Konovalov · 01-12-07, 02:30 PM

Is it really any surprise with people suing and taking court action sometimes legitimately and sometimes to try and get rich? These days companies and schools try to do everything possible to cover their own behinds and to not expose themselves to possible liability. Over the top? Of course but in these times it is to be expected. A case of occupational health and safety (OH & S) gone mad.

Steed, I would suggest that you begin your own website titled PC Madness Watch.

I agree but that Nadia Eweida really got my goat. They had her on TV and I felt she was one of the ram it down your throat type which I can't stand with any religion.

I think you should start a website STEED, would make lunch times pass more quickly.

Anyway it is mad.

Where's the scandal here, she wasnt allowed wear jewellery, and didnt qualify for the exemption. Endy story

Makes me laugh this PC clap trap have started to use health and safety to hind behind. I think instead of them working folk up and getting there blood boiling we should burst out with non stop laughing at these stupid people.

So I will get the ball rolling. :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

Sorry, but I'm with Tchocky on this one:

Quote:

"The school has a policy of no jewellery to be worn by any students in years seven to 10. All parents and students are aware of this. In this particular instance, the student, and parent, were informed that the wearing of the chain was a health and safety hazard, but that we would allow a lapel badge to be worn."

If no students of said age group are allowed to wear any jewellery, and all parents "are aware of this", then what's the problem?

Funny, if it really was about Safety and Health precautions...why do they allow a lapel badge? that needle is more dangerous then a light chain that breaks of any minute if u just give it a little pull on it.

True. But this is a catholic school, the cross means alot to catholics, i bet if it wasn't for whats happening around the world at the moment, wearing the cross wouldn't be an issue. Catholic schools here aren't allowed to wear jewelry but the cross is accepted its part of their religeon. They have lost the faith!
