"Non-homosexual only hiring? Non-religeous people only hiring? Non-alcohol consuming people only? Non-fast food eating people only? Non-fat people only? Non-perfume/cologne using people only? My tag line probably applies to you."

So for 20+ years I had a "profile" that said I couldn't be assigned any work that required squatting or certain other movements or positions, even though *that* knee healed up fine within a few weeks. The other knee OTOH ....
