They may not fire you, but I bet they make your life miserable!!
TRUE STORY: I used to work at what is affectionally known as Coca-Cola U--Emory University. The school has a be-jillon buildings named after the founders and former CEOs of Coke. A department was planning a picnic on campus and called Coke to get free coke. Coke said no. They called a Pepsi bottler. The Pepsi Bottler said yes (Emory has an agreement that only Coke will be sold on campus) They sent a HUGE truck over and after they had unloaded it an administrator happened to walk by. He made them load the ENTIRE truck back up and get that "@#*&%^ Pepsi off his *#&$^%(@)*& Campus!!" LOL
Also, I've heard of folks at the big 3 American auto makers keying foreign cars in their parking lots. Not sure if they still do that, seeing how half of the American cars are made in Mexico and half the "foreign cars are made here (BMW, Toyota have plants in US)

Might be true. I do know that at the Ford plant here in VA, you cannot drive certain foreign autos onto the site (most of them). This goes for visitors and employees. My dad used to be a courier. He delivered there once and they made him park his Nissan truck outside because it is on the "banned" list.

1) How can you NOT find "Weapons of Mass Destruction"? Those things are HUGE. And if it is in liquid form, there should be tanks and tanks of it...just my op. (They probably don't have them anyway.)
2) The distance of the thing that you are searching for (usually around the house or office) is directly proportional to how hard you are looking (closer, shorter distance). How come the closer it is to you, you cannot see it, but when you are not looking for it, you find it immediately?
3) How come when you are single, no one pays any attention to you, and you WISH you just had SOMEONE for companionship, but when you are finally in a relationship, a swarm of guys finally show up? Is this one of nature's joke? A test of some sort? lol.
4) How come the news reporters on all the news channels, especially CNN, knew only these words: Bunker Busting Bombs, Tomahawk Missiles, and Regime? (Like if the BBB and TMs were the only weapons used in the war.)
5) How come the most popluar word in ANY sports channel is "upset"? Like, "Ohhhh, what an upset!" They use it about 433 times a day. I hate this word now.
6) How come after exactly ten years of using a "new product/invention/medicine" they bring out a new study that shows it ALSO causes cancer? (I'm starting to believe these studies are all fake and just a way of manipulating consumers habits on what products to use.) I'm surprised just conducting the study doesn't cause cancer.
7) How come no one is paying attention to all the planes that keep falling? Don't they know that with all the radio waves, satellite stuff, cell phone usage, signals, other planes, and who knows what other "waves" are in the sky MAY BE causing all these planes to fall? Hellloooo?
8) Where does all the junk lost in space go? Maybe there's a black hole that sucks it up or a large magnet that holds it there. At this rate, instead of seeing stars in the sky, we'll start seeing pieces of metal.
9) Last but not least...I would appreciate your opinions on this one: For those who believe in reincarnation, what phase are we in now as humans? Do we begin our first phase in our mother's womb and then second phase begins after we die? Or were we something before we became a speck in our mother's womb? If so, how did we get in there?
For those who believe in life after death, do you think we go to heaven or hell, or do you think there may be another level in-between, like stuck on earth but in a different form? How do you explain spirits (or whatever you would like to call it) or unexplainable movement of objects that have no possible scientific explanation? (I experienced the latter when I was 7 and cannot explain it till this day.)
Feel free to send me a pm.
That's all for now.

why do radio stations take commercial breaks all at the same time?
WHY CAN I NOT think of a freaking title? How is it that I can title 100s of threads? 100s of English and Psychology papers? etc etc etc, but NOOOOOOOOOW that I have something worth titling, my brain is like the desert? DRY, EMPTY, etc. etc.

That's hilarious!!! Pepsi haters!!! 
I go to Georgia State and I would kill to have a Pepsi machine on campus. GSU is under the same agreement, so for me to get a Pepsi I have to walk 3 blocks AWAY from campus to get one. That sucks!!!

It's the real thing: US Coke worker sacked for drinking Pepsi
Fri Jun 13, 6:19 PM ET Add U.S. National - AFP to My Yahoo!
LOS ANGELES (AFP) - A US truck driver who worked for the Coca-Cola Bottling Company has been sacked after being spotted glugging down a soft drink made by the rival Pepsi company, union officials said.
Rick Bronson, who worked for the world's biggest soft drink firm for 12 years, was fired after someone reported him for supporting the enemy, the International Brotherhood of Teamsters said.
"Coke is really grasping at straws on this one," said Jim Santangelo, principal officer of Teamsters' branch of which Bronson is a member in El Monte, east of the California hub of Los Angeles.
"This is nothing more than an attempt to get rid of a pro-union employee. The Teamsters will fight every step of the way to get Rick's job back," he vowed.
The Teamsters claim that Coke really sacked the worker because of his work three months ago in organizing Coke merchandising workers under the powerful union's aegis.
The dismissal came after he was allegedly spotted in the back room of a store where he was making a delivery swigging on a Pepsi.
Bronson believes the person who reported him for publicly straying from his home brand had been hired by Coke to follow him and catch him off guard.
The union alleges that Coke fired Bronson under a company rule that bars "slander" of the world famous product after he was seen drinking the rival soft drink, Santangelo said.
"Hey, Rick's a Pepsi drinker, what can he do?" he said. But it's not as if he was seen drinking a Pepsi in Times Square on live TV -- he was in the backroom of a store.
"This wasn't slanderous, they just wanted him because of his union activity and because he is a union leader," he claimed.
A spokesman for the Coca-Cola Bottling Co. in Southern California, Bob Phillips, declined to comment on the allegations and on the case citing California's privacy laws, but said the company would not resort to a pretext to fire an employee active in a union.
"I can tell you that we have at this company a strict policy against retaliation and the company does not retaliate, nor do we tolerate any retaliation against employees," he said.
The Teamsters Local 848 has filed unfair labour practice charges against Coca-Cola over the incident, according to the union.
Coca-Cola in California and the Teamster have been at loggerheads over labour-related disputes, including strikes, involving Coke workers in recent months and negotiations over other contentious issues are still under way.

I had to post a reply...
Why does someone say they are ready to go, and then make you wait forever for them to get ready?
Why does your mouth open when you are surprised or in awe?
How come if you can only fall asleep on your side or your stomach, you wake up on your back?
How come men want to snuggle in the bed when you can only sleep in your own space?
How come my cousin told me she would be here in a couple of hours, and its been three?

How come when I sleep on my stomach I do not dream (or at least do not remember them, because I read somewhere that we always dream), but when I sleep on my back, I have long and crazy dreams?
LOL!

How come the most lustful thoughts usually occur in church?
Oh well, it isn't all of my fault-brother C and brother R no better than to wear WIFE BEATERS at our college ministry gatherings!
