Emo Revival Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 BINGO. my wife (nurse) said the exact same thing. they are required...and those that dont are put on leave. Both of my parents work in the pharmaceutical industry so I've been told this stuff my whole life. I think I've only ever gotten one flu shot. I don't see the point in paying someone for their best guess, when even if you get the flu it's really not that bad. jtcohenour 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emo Revival Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 I usually get sick from the shot iteself Yeah that's because its a weakened version of it, the shot gives you the disease and lets your body fight it off and build up immunity to it.

maneatingcow Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 I've never gotten the flu shot, but this year I will have to. As part of my companies changes to the Health Care they now are using a points based system to determine how much of the Health Insurance they pay. the flu shot is 25 points, so fuck it I'll have to get one.

jtcohenour Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 The only inoculation I have not been required to get was smallpox and that is because my wife and son have a skin condition that prevents them from being in contact with someone who has had a smallpox vaccination recently Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's because they culture them in chicken eggs. It allows it to grow fast and cheap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jtcohenour Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 thats a pretty healthy dinner. Egg whites only have about 20 calories per egg. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigbruise Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 I'm in the military so I don't really have a choice in whether or not I want to be vaccinated. I guess I did have the choice of not joining the military in the first place. You like mentioning you're in the military huh? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

futures Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 thats a pretty healthy dinner. Egg whites only have about 20 calories per egg. I did have some of the home fries that came with it. is that a girl thing? my wife and sisters dont eat the yolks. dont even get me started on them not eating meat off the bone/wing argument. Not sure, haha. I don't like egg yolks. I throw them out or donate them to someone who enjoys yolk whenever I eat hard boiled eggs, lol. I normally don't like eating off the bones, but I like buffalo wings given they aren't overly buffalo-y. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

futures Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 YES they're so good. I try so hard not to eat them when I go to the diner, but then I'm stuck thinking about the fact that I'm at a diner and I can't just not eat them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 I like wings. but I would eat them alone. I don't want anyone to see me in the act. so yeah, i think it's a girl thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abovetheearth Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 one of my exes wouldnt eat a banana or ice cream cone next to me. made NO sense... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
futures Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 She could've cut the banana up, I suppose. & Ice cream cones can get messy in the same vein as buffalo wings, so I can understand that. No man would get in between me and my ice cream cones tho. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
