yep Full Ack

btw. i did an ugly and dangerous job for real low money once: cleaning a huge animal fodder silo inside and outside that only gets cleaned every 5 years and all that whith 30+° Celsius ouside ... i never encountered worse than sweating under a gasmask (btw. a team of 5 guys and i was the only who didn't refuse to do the job on Top and inside)

In this day and age you don't really *need* crabs for protein. And I singled them out because I was thinking about Deadliest Catch, ie these fishermen are taking on ridiculous risks for something that society would do just fine without. I don't think lobster fishing is nearly as dangerous.

you have such a huge crab? it must taste so good if its that dangerous.

[Potjeh]

You seriously haven't seen Deadliest Catch? Anyway, it's not the crabs, it's the fact that they're up in the Bering Sea. Not exactly the calmest waters on Earth.

[Tonkyhonk]

just checked some, yeah those crabs... nomnomnom...
our fishermen usually go to Okhotsk for them though, not Berling. but maybe we are importing those too, our greed for food never stops.

as for deadliest catch, yeah they do look really dangerous, but sounds like rewarding enough money-wise? do prostitutes make even more money than those dangerous fishermen in general? i read they get paid pretty handsomely with their catches.
i do remember reading an article about this korean 'comfort woman' who had 30k+ yen in her bank account when normal monthly salary for men was 100-150 yen per month, an anual salary of chief of army was 6k+ yen. but it was a war time and im sure she never had trouble finding customers at brothels whether she liked it or not. its not like these days you actually have to compete or race for customers.

btw in my country usually tuna fishing is known to be the most dangerous of fishery, as well as Ama diving (women foraging in deep water without gear, traditionally naked)


off-topic,
are you going to try the "love train" in Prague when they start it, potjeh?

Dunno about the rest of the world, but a prostitute in Bosnia costs about 50€ an hour. For comparison, a friend of mine who works in a bauxite mine makes 1.40€ an hour. And he says that he's the only guy in his shift that hasn't broken any bones on the job, but that's just because he only started working two weeks ago. There's also a death or a severe permanent injury (I know a guy who lost 80% of his eyesight in the mine) every couple of years, which is kinda high considering there's only about 150 miners working there. And this is a bauxite mine, which is among the safest ores to mine. Coal is way worse.

Yeah, mining in the Iron Ranges of the US is still one of the worst in the world, and it only gets worse from there, like down in South America, Argentina and areas like that. One of my friends did a little mining work for a while, he's told me plenty of stories. He was doing industrial mining infrastructure for sewers around Atlanta, pretty rough stuff, but still, relatively safe, and he got paid around $16 US/Hour.

too sad that mining can be only fun in game

[painhertz]

We need robot miners.

[Tonkyhonk]

i think china and india are using mining robots, and i think i saw an article before about NASA using mining robots on moon or something?
(all mines in my area are closed and no miners exist here any more, i believe most mines are closed in japan, except for maybe lime and such.)

we have a robot restaurant (with huge robot waitresses) in Kabuki-cho, Shinjuku. i hear there is or will be? a robot prostitute brothel in netherland. i wonder if anti-prostitution people object against robot prostitution or just accept them since its not about human rights. (i hope nobody would start arguing about robot rights.)

A study in Social Science and Medicine concerning the criminalization of sex work makes similar conclusions: when women sold sex independently, it was more difficult to refuse clients who didn’t want condoms. Conversely, in the Netherlands, in which prostitution has been legal since 2000 and decriminalized since the 1970s, allowing the creation of established red-light districts, the spread of HIV is the lowest across all developed countries.
