Sickening... just... sickening....
Well in the midst of budget concerns, over-crowded prisons, violent felons being accidently released from prison, and other such problems, it's good to see that the legislature is tackling the issues that are really important to their constituents.

And don't forget the 100 or so state committees, sub-committes, and boards that are a complete waste of money. And air.
Of all the things I'm looking forward to about moving to California, the government isn't one of 'em.
The state gov't is the second biggest reason I moved away from California. Cost of living was the first.
I will always maintain that it's a great place to visit, but a horrible place to live for the poor and uneducated. Unless they can't speak English; then they'll be just fine,

You're coming to California? For God's sake, why? And what part?
So government protecting workers is a bad thing?
Goodbye ventilation in places were toxic gases are used.
A) If fitted sheets were that good, they would already be in use, especially if, as the union says, the lack of them is increasing workers' comp claims.
B) It's more a matter (for us) of California's bass-ackwards governmental priorities. They are running a $20B deficit that they can only "close" through accounting gimmicks, they can't afford to fund schools, they're cutting services, etc. while (as an example) still having ~100 redundant and/or useless boards, commitees, and sub-commitees. And that's just by the state's own admission.
C) It's also a good illustration of the inordinate lobbying power unions hold over the government of the state of California.
Believe it or not, they can pretend to fix several problems at once.
Alright, Optimus, you win.
It's that whole skipping steps on the chain of command/authority that really bothers me.
For a job, and the edge of the Mojave desert.
Ahh, the land of wind and sand. Grats on the new job!
Maybe if I lived in a desert I wouldn't be so pale.
... you have seen pictures of me, right? If you don't tan where you're at, you'll just burn even more here.
As for air quality... with those fires in Arizona we've been having a great haze over most of the state the last few weeks. It's so bad up in 'burque that you can hardly see the mountains from the river on some days.
For me it's that legislating something like this is probably a ham-fisted way that'll end up causing problems in the long-run. If it's really a safety/health concern, it seems that they should have had OSHA or something institute the rule. But as a law... that means that even if something comes out later that's better, or later studies show something else, that they have to legislate a new change, not just have people that actually know what the frack is going on institute the change.

That is how they can justify their positions somehow don't they?
