I feel like a netting system along the sides, like what they do with some bridges and tall building, would prevent accidental deaths and possibly most suicides.

There’s two entirely separate disgraceful things here…

  • no MOB system despite knowing it works and saying they would install it
  • refusing to return personal effects, not paying monies owed, theft of cash etc

… and both speak to the same ‘fuck the drones we employ, there’s always more of them (and frankly fuck the dumbasses who are our customers)’ corporate culture. Does it need a rich, white passenger to be lost overboard and the company get sued, to make them install these systems?
