thumb-drive control

Thumb-drive control - gets to the source of terrorism and prevents their use of guns as well..

Thumb drives cause terrorism (like guns cause killings). But we can reduce terrorism - by thumb-drive control - with regulations that take away the key device that terrorists use to promote killing. Raising taxes on thumb-drive sales could escalate the impact of this control.

Selling "thumbs-down" ribbons and bumper stickers will rally the supporters (- but you can expect some "sore-thumb" ideologues... to oppose it).
HE: Did you hear that terrorists are using thumb-drives to communicate?

SHE: We need thumb-drive control to put a stop to terrorism

HE: I wonder if brain control is needed here..?

SHE: What does that have to do with terrorism - or guns?

Under-Time

Under-Time is the shortage of hours given to an employee to do the same scope of work but in less time.

In the down economy, hourly workers are "expected" to "work smarter" and do added work and still get their regular work done as if they were "professionals" who owe the employer more-than-hourly performance.

It is often associated with a new RUSH assignment - or managers who get a BONUS for reduced labor costs.
Q) Are you working overnight with us to re-arrange the cereal shelves and move old stock to the front..we're even getting Over-Time..?

A) No, I've been given Under-Time for hanging up all the new signs to promote the changed pricing..and wasn't even given enough hours to get the regular store signs installed..
