Reply to L&I Complaint Questions, OSHA by International-Cook62

Please file an osha complaint and a wage theft complaint. Asap!

Most states have a wage theft form you can fill out and submit. The u.s. gov should have one as well.

Osha, start documenting what is wrong and file a complaint. Let they be ligeit and valid enough for them to come out. I called the 800# and asked about a few minor issues and they said they were questionable unless they turned into a larger issue. Your issue is valid enough.

Thanks to Grays Harbor, I don’t think there needed to be much settlement on Washington’s coast to link the Puget Sound to California.

Being like the largest harbor between here and San Francisco, it also had Chehalis River providing a direct route into the prairies of the South Sound.

The Olympic Mountains limit the available land on the WA coast to a pretty narrow strip, and Puget Sound's qualities make it a far better spot to build major ports.

Reply to driver's license renewal question regarding renewing 1 year early vs renewing on time by jason200911

I just happened to show up to the DOL 362 days before my licensed expired. There was a snow storm and no one else there. They let me know I could renew now if I wanted to, so I did. License showed up in the mail days later and it was like getting an extra year. The expiration date has nothing to do with the renewal date, it's based on the expiration date.

Reply to comment by Gwtheyrn in Gorge Shows Outrageously Expensive Now? by SkepticalForAReason

You couldn’t pay me to attend another gorge show. Gas. $80. Camping? Fuck, who knows? Maybe $100? Tickets for two? $250-500 per person. Bottle of water in 100° heat? $15. Food? Fuck you, bud. Enjoy your drive to Moses Lake and forfeit your tickets and camping spot. Oh, wait enjoy your DUI inspection from WSP and Grant County Sheriff.

It’s called Point Defiance because the US military set up cannons on both sides, making the waterway a death zone for any British or Spanish ships coming in to fuck around. Later, forts were built up along the Strait of Juan de Fuca. Not even the Japanese could get through with submarines. Oh and occasionally old forgotten sea mines rust out their chains and come bobbing up like corks.
