Today's
Update mentions that the city of Rhome is considering requiring all new employees to undergo a polygraph.
Say what? There certainly is no widespread acceptance as to whether the machines are scientically reliable. (They still aren't admissible in court). And the cost would be insane. Respected polygraphers (sounds dirty, huh?) wil charge about $500 a pop. I'm sure a better package deal could be cut than that, but you always get what to you pay for.
And who in the world would want to work for Rhome that badly?
(But now I can't get the
Seinfeld episode out of my head when Jerry was hooked up to one to determine if he really didn't watch
Melrose Place.)
