Upon investigating the corporation Aramark, I found that there are much bigger problems than those at the college.  Among the problems we have complaints pertaining to food quality, abuse toward students and fellow Aramark employees, and barring specific people entry to eating facilities (even if those people have health issues that require them to eat.)  While there are many complaints pertaining to Aramark at the University, I found that this is not the only place where this company has upheld its horrid reputation.  The company not only has a bad reputation locally, the reputation even goes internationally. 

        Before I go into the international complaints against Aramark, let us start here in America. Among the most popular complaints against the company was poor food quality, employees bullied from supervisors, and of course harassment. To quote the site “Aramark is Evil,” “Aramark is a horrible, abusive company that has a well-documented history of mistreating employees, lowering industry standards, and using public dollars to kill other businesses; especially mom-n-pop food establishments near campuses with their wicked "Dining Dollars" system. This blog was created to cry out against Aramark and request a Congressional investigation of their unseemly practices.” Of course, you do not have to take my word for it; you can simply look for yourself as I have cited all my sources.

First, let us look into the most popular complaint against Aramark; let us review the food quality. When we evaluate the food, there is usually the same problem: the food is either burned, undercooked, or simply tastes horrid. In fact, these three elements alone have sparked an international war against the Aramark Corporation. When evaluating the food for myself, what I observed made me gag. First off, the food was very poorly prepared. For example, the chicken was very dry and obviously not cooked that day; in fact, I would have been amazed if it had been cooked that week. Secondly, regarding the chicken, I had even found some pieces that had not even cooked thoroughly; can you say food poisoning?  However, the problems seemed to go on.

               Putting the food quality aside, there have also been complaints regarding harassment, stealing, and abuse. First, let us review the harassment. Even at the university I attend, it is not rare to see employee abuse. Rather it is toward fellow employees or students the abuse thrives in Aramark. I recall an incident that involved two female students. They had come in shortly prior to closing (according to the clocks in the cafeteria) and met with screams from an Aramark employee. The confrontation, however, did not start out as a scream match. At first, she rudely informed the students that they were closed and they had to leave. When that failed, she then resorted into screaming at the students who could do nothing more than stand and listen. While a complaint was filed against the employee, I was amazed to find that the employee had not been terminated. In fact, she was simply relocated into the kitchen area.

               When we evaluate the ethics of Aramark, we find that trait simply does not exist. In recent years, Aramark was placed under the gun for stealing from its employees. Aramark had apparently been taking Union dues while at the same time pocketing the cash. It was, at this time, the Union filed a criminal complaint against them. To make the situation worst it is unknown as to which Union actually represents Aramark. Regardless, it is known that 1,700 employees were affected by the theft. “Aramark does not have the right to take money out of workers’ paychecks and then do whatever it wants to do with it,” Bruce Raynor, president of Workers United, told one source.

               Finally, due to time, we have the claim of Harassment; something I have seen first-hand from Aramark supervisors. In Milwaukee Wi., a chef had a habit of stating things that were highly inappropriate. Like the Aramark in other locations, complaints to the management were left unheard. To directly quote the article, “he acuse(d) workers of using drugs when they don’t do drugs, he call(ed) us stupid, he talk(ed) badly about a workers sexual orientation.” This type of abuse is common among Aramark employees. Furthermore, it’s not uncommon for the management to partake in this behavior.

               There are many cases more that I can go into. In fact, if you Google “Aramark complaints,” You will be amazed as to what you find from other people. Though some of the people are/were employees of Aramark, you’ll learn that most of them are simply customers. When you run a company, you are expected to uphold certain ethics and morals. However, if you run Aramark, it is almost expected to toss that out the window. While I write this one article against the Aramark Corporation, be aware that there is a war being waged against them. The corruption within the company, the abuse, and the food quality are only minor reasons for this war. If you search online, you will find that there are countless other reasons for this war.

Good morning robots, another fine day in paradise. You're probably wondering about the title; well, fact is The Commies have approved the Healthcare reform plan in both H.O.R and the senate. What does this mean for us? Bye bye America. In other news:

A Nigerian banker believes his son may have been the one carrying a bomb in a recent terrorist attack. Apparently the retard couldn't do the job correctly as not only was nobody hurt, he was found to only have "minor" injuries. The lesson is: If you're going to blow up an airplane, don't use a condom to do the job. However, not suprsing enough, the United States had placed him as being a possible terrorist. This is lesson 2: Apparently the United States Government can actually guess something right. I think they deserve cookies for that.

Below is an article I found on a news site:

Family Pleads for Return of Captured Soldier
by Jason Ditz, December 25, 2009
Email This | Print This | Share This | Comment | Antiwar Forum

The Taliban released a video today showing an apparently unharmed Pfc. Bowe Bergdahl, the Sun Valley, Idaho soldier captured in Afghanistan in late June.

In the video, the soldier sharply criticized the Afghan War, likening it to Vietnam and urging the American public to “stand up and stop all this nonsense.” The video is the first sign of Bergdahl since a mid-July video.

Bergdahl’s family issued a statement by way of the Idaho National Guard, calling for the release of their only son and urging him to “stay strong” while he remains the only US soldier currently in captivity in Afghanistan.

Bergdahl’s capture was something of a news story in early July, and the soldier was condemned as a traitor by some pundits, who accused him of deserting his post and aiding the enemy.

US officials condemned the release of the video as an outrage, declaring that it was an affront to Islam to do so. Still, while the release of the video was doubtless for the Taliban’s own benefit by way of propaganda, it at the very least gives Pfc. Bergdahl’s family a measure of assurance that he is apparently alive and unharmed.

Let's hope he gets out of there.

Alright robots, that's just some of the stuff going down recently. Until next time, this is the Raven signing off.

Good morning Robots. Another fine day in Paradise. Seems we had some issues with the fucking blog recently, and as a result, I lost a lot of my stuff. Luckily my actual articles were saved from the hands of death. During the past thirty-six hours, however, a lot of shit has gone down. I recently contacted a new Militia in hopes of doing an interview, which I will post here at a later time. This group consists of police officers, military personal, and robots such as yourself. This group has but one goal: Protect the United States and the ORIGINAL Constitution. Go group go! It's about fucking time somebody started up a group that told our Fascist Government where to cram that dildo they bought last week.

Anyways in Pakistan, their troops killed six civilians yesterday. If this were the United States, they would have bitched and moped about it. But nope, these mother fuckers went to protesting these actions. Several citizens staged a sit in place protest in front of the district coordination officers' office. As part of this protest, they were kind enough to lay the dead bodies at his door step as a way of telling him to "Stop killing innocent people, you basterd!" Okay, I added the you basterd part... but the point stands.

Meanwhile in the United States, your Socialist leader has decided to implicate a new policy: "Prolonged incarsiration" What better way to play politics than to falsly arrest people. Below is a link to a video I found regarding this topic.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EkcUIBvImWI

How do you refer to a man as being Hitler without actually calling him Hitler? Simply call him Obama.
Not to suprsingly, Obama has failed yet another goal of his: Close Guantanamo by January 2010. He admitted yesterday, that the facility of doom would remain open for what he called a "Forseeable" future. He also hoped to close it down in 2010.... Meanwhile, we all hold onto our private parts not expecting much more to be done from the Obama Administration.
Obama also announced that Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, the ring leader of the 9/11 attacks would NOT stand trial but instead will stand execution. Though I'm all for it, I think this is a direct violation of what America stands for: In my opinion he has the right to stand trial among his own peers... well in this case, among the people he helped murder. And to think, I doubted the United States as being a "capitalist" nation.....

Another little tidbit, I recently heard from a very trusted source is this: Apparently some type of Concentration camp has been built in the United States. The exact location of this camp is apparently somewhere near Las Vegas. I will be doing more updates on this as I get them, I am also trying to recover pictures of this facility.

Meanwhile, below are some videos that you must see:

Oh, you know when FEMA is involved it's always shit

Okay robots, there you have it... Another smack in the face that just screams "WAKE THE FUCK UP!" And with that said, this is the Raven signing out.

Hello robots, another wonderful day in Paradise. Just when things seem to be at a standstill, our Government decides to wack another man who's a bit a nut job. So, what the fuck are you talking about, Raven? Well, here's the big cookie behind what I'm referring to.

John Allen Muhammad, commonly known as the DC Sniper has finally been put to death. Why the fuck they allowed him to live so much longer than that of his victims, however, is beyond me. Several family members of the fallen victims attended this beautful death party in hopes of gaining that closure they so longed for; I can only hope they got it. Speaking of death, I want to thank a commenter for giving me the stats on soldiers killed overseas. If you wish to see these stats, check out my article "THIS IS SPARTA!" and read the posts.

In other news, Rupert Murdoch has decided that he will be blocking Google searches as an attempt to charge people for reading his stories. What the fucking idiot doesn't realize, is these stories can be found on ANY NEWS SITE! As though this isn't sad enough, I found a short article talking about people being sent to Uzbekistan to be raped with broken bottles. Naturally, this was all during the Bush administration. You can watch the video at the following link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0MQoG5wfx5g

And finally, this is a story I found on OpenEd.

Mohmmad Ali Abtahi, a leading blogger and former reformist vice president, was among dozens to protest the 12th June presidential election's result. A trial of the protestors is now underway in a Tehran court.

In the court Abtahi, who appeared wearing prisoner's pyjamas, looked weak and seemed to have lost weight. Abtahi, who had been jailed for several weeks and had no contact with the outside world, said in the court, “I say to all my friends and all friends who hear us, that the issue of fraud in Iran was a lie and was brought up to create riots so Iran becomes like Afghanistan and Iraq and suffers damage and hardship… and if this happened, there would be no name and trace of the revolution left.”

Abtahi has been accused of taking part in a “velvet coup” against regime.

Several bloggers reacted to Abtahi's so-called confession and his physical presence. Several have published photos of him before and after the arrest. (ABOVE: L, before arrest; R, in today's trial).

Kaveh Ahangar says [fa] that we could see evidence of torture and threats behind each word coming out of Abtahi's mouth. The blogger adds that on seeing Abtahi on TV, he became emotional and cried.

Alfba writes [fa]: “Dear Abtahi, we know you were under pressure and you family suffered a lot. You should know what you confess, we still love you. We support you.”

Forever696 tweeted with irony that if we believe in Ahmadinejad's 24 million votes, we will believe in these trials.

Saharlar writes [fa] “today it's Abtahi, whose turn will be tommorow? The blogger asks readers not to be discouraged and not to take these kinds of “shows” seriously.”

There we go robots. Feel free to leave your comments, opinions, and email me whatever articles you find on this lovely basterd we call the net. Until next time, this is The Raven signing off.

Hello Robots, another fine day in Paradise. Today, it would appear that our Government will be passing that fucking Health Care reform bill afterall. Thank yous' go out to all the bots who made this possible. In other news, Obama seems to be getting mixed messages from two of his bitches. U.S General Casey, believes we need to send more troops over to Afghanistan, while one of Obama's avisors believe that doing so isn't the correct route. Either way, we all know which bitch he'll be listening to. Speaking of Afghanistan, apparently Afghan troops were being targetted by NATO while attempting a massive search for two US paratroopers who had gone missing. What better way to thank them than to blow their fucking asses to kingdom come (Remember kids, if it's being done correctly, you know it's not being done by NATO.) On another topic, below is an article I found that I thought you would find rather interesting.

Dennis Kucinich - Writer
Washington D.C. (November 6, 2009) – Following a statement on the Floor of the House of Representative, Congressman Dennis Kucinich (D-OH) today made the following statement:

“Why is it we have finite resources for health care but unlimited money for war?

“The inequities in our economy are piling up: trillions for war, trillions for Wall Street and tens of billions for the insurance companies. Banks and other corporations are sitting on piles of cash of taxpayer's money while firing workers, cutting pay and denying small businesses money to survive.


“People are losing their homes, their jobs, their health, their investments, their retirement security; yet there is unlimited money for war, Wall Street and insurance companies, but very little money for jobs on Main Street.

“Unlimited money to blow up things in Iraq and Afghanistan, and relatively little money to build things in the US.

“The Administration may soon bring to Congress a request for an additional $50 billion for war. I can tell you that a Democratic version of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan is no more acceptable than a Republican version of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.

“Trillions for war and Wall Street, billions for insurance companies... When we were promised change, we weren't thinking that we give a dollar and get back two cents.”

Oh the joy of knowing somebody else isn't a bot.... That is one joy I don't feel all that often. For those who haven't been watching Obama, it does seem like he's money happy. Always finding another way to blow our fucking money.. What a good socialist he is. Which brings me to my next point. How the fuck is it that this moron is able to blow so much fucking money on two wars, but doesn't seem to have enough money to blow on the American people? Think about that one for a while.
Okay bots, that's the shit that's filling the handbasket today. Read, comment, think, and be sure to keep me up to date as to what's going down.
