I guess the next step will be to fire and repatriate the [south] pole dancers.

I wonder if distiller’s yeast is available. If I was there, I would certainly make some alcohol. You don’t even need a still. You can freeze the wort and pull the ice from the top, thus increasing the alcohol concentration. Antarctica has outdoor facilities to do that rather quickly. Lol. The only problem is there’s no way to get rid of the fusel oils. That results in wicked hangovers.

I see a big part of the problem on the left.

.

I guess doing fag is ok, better watch out for the females.

I see accusations but no facts so it's leg lickers and butt bangers for the duration.

Lots of OTHER places for women to work if they cannot handle Antarctica, or maybe just go home and take care of the kids that miss them.

I would want to see actual data not just the usual he said/she said. I have experience with women who misuse harassment policies and outright lie. OTOH if some guy actually commits an assault he needs to be fired. And any manager that covers up real harassment needs to be fired also. Don’t forget to can the women who make up harassment claims.

Well, the ice cap is melting ‘cause globull warming...err...I mean climate change.
I wonder if the fag flag in the photo means homo sex only and, now, they restrict your booze intake.
Sounds like they’re trying to get rid of those evil SWM (Straight White Males).

I heard that the Penguins Gone Wild are pretty wicked down there. The Climate Changelings love them.
