How come when your employer takes out a policy on you it's "wishing you were dead" but if it's your wife then you don't (normally) expect to find razor blades in your packed lunch?
Why shouldn't a company insure their most valuable assets... having to replace/train a key person could cost many £thousands, and losing someone critical to a project at the wrong time could end up much more expensive.Originally posted by MaryPoppinsI'd still not breastfeed a naziOriginally posted by vetranUrine is quite nourishing -

Companies were doing this for non-valuable employees.
Companies were continuing to do this for ex-employees.
Companies were not obtaining permission from the employees beforehand.Comment
