Shabbos Goys Need Not Apply
Leave it to the chosen people to find the loophole. The good people at the Zomet Institute are hard at work creating new Rube Goldberg worthy gadgets to help cheat the Sabbath, and are making a pretty penny doing it.
My favorite device has to be the pen with ink that vanishes after a few days. Supposedly this is to help keep a Jewish law that forbids parchment writing during Shabbos. Why do I get I the feeling it will get more use as a creative alternative to the rejection hotline by bratty Orthodox girls who don’t want to give me their number.

Apparently most of the products are made in China…thank goodness slave labour (or labor for you Americans) is permitted…but G-d forbid I should flick a switch!

Puck is exactly right. This is just another form of “outsourcing” afflicting all western nations.

The Puck is wise nods
And also confused as to how righteous it is to try and skirt around the edges of the sabbath restrictions, if one has so little respect for them, why bother pretending at all?
