Let’s all join ice and not work

It's certainly tempting.

If I wasn't already employed, in sure there's a way to get hired as an ICE agent for a full blown do-nothing position.

Hell, game the system right and you can be hired three or four times. I doubt their HR is worth a shit.

Good idea in theory, but you'd be facing a shitload of pressure from your fascist thug "colleagues" to commit all sorts of heinous acts and it's not unlikely that they'd go to great and violent lengths to force you to comply just like they do with their other victims.

Might be worth it to get their names

Just be careful not to be seen writing them down. Literacy skills are a dead giveaways

Join ICE, spray tan your coworkers and work harder.
