Can you think of a worse job?

Imagine being in the night shift at Fordo. Or the day shift for that matter.

One time at a job I had a meeting where someone was like "this could've just been done over email" and another person said "then how can you see the faces I make when you talk?" and everyone laughed and I thought to myself, "this is just as bad as working a night shift at Fordo". True story.

Lived experiences are not comparable, and one's own truth is the only real truth. 89th, I'm sorry you had to go through that.

As for Fordo night shift workers, I will express my sympathies for them when they begin posting here.

I would have thought that one of the few real benefits to living in Iran is that TNCR is famously blocked.

That brings up a good point for discussion though. Do you think the facility is still fully staffed at this point or would the mullahs have humanely allowed them to stay away? I see no evidence that Khamenei values the lives of his people over his divine death cult fantasies purpose.

If anything he’s probably beefed up security forces there because the Israeli plan B if the US doesn’t help is a special forces operation to breech it.

Two interesting things I heard on the Honestly podcast with Ferguson and Filkins:

1. Israel has been practicing a special forces operation at Fordo

2. The huge 30k lb bunker buster bomb the US has wouldn’t be enough. They’d have to drop a series of them over days.

A blow job in the form of a text message.

Yep. That second point is, IMO, exactly why we should not enter the fray.

So ... the A-Team, Ethan Hunt, or the Expendables?

Not spiking the ball as particularly prescient because it was pretty obvious but yeah it was kind of the worst job.

Maybe some of them were thrown free.

I guess I just hope there aren’t a lot of people trapped underground.

Little sympathy here for folk who are/have been making weapons to kill me; but yes, let's hope death was immediate and painless for everyone working there.
