Joke of the Week
A magician accidentally turned his wife into a couch and his two kids into
armchairs.
He started to panic and thought to himself, "What on earth have I done?"
Then he wor ried, "How am I going to bring back my beloved family?"
He thought and thought but couldn't come up with any magic to undo
the trick. So he decided his only hope was to take them to a hospital
emergency room and see if the trauma docs could bring them ba ck. He
loaded them into his van and off he rushed to the local hospital.
Upon arrival his family was whisked away with medical personnel rushing
in to save them. The magician paced up and down the hospital hall and
after a long time the head ER doctor cam e out to talk to him. The
magician immediately asked, "Doc, how are they? Have you brought
them back?"
The doctor shook his head sadly and said, "I'm afraid there's nothing we
can do - but don't worry. They are quite comfortable."

Long Story Short on the Gender Signage Situation
How some companies will handle gender n eutrality in their signage even when their state requires separate
restrooms for separate genders
The Fair Employment and Housing Council
has created a plan to resolve the conflict
between their new regulations and those of
OSHA's concerning single - use to ilets and
their signage. Their new regulation states
that all single - user toilets must now have a
sign indicating that they are "gender -
neutral". However, OSHA's rules under title 8
states that a company must provide separate
toilets for men and women base d on the number of each employed at the time. The FEHC has proposed
a change to the language, which will omit certain work sites with "non - water carriage disposal facilities"
from the regulation. They voted to submit this proposal to the Office of Administ rative Law for
emergency lawmaking authorization.
