What was that old 3M ethics test saying - don't do anything that you wouldn't want on the front page of the newspaper? But, by all means...continue to blame the fall of 3M on DEI efforts.

All the old timers, who are so bitter about their shares being below water, so quickly post to say pfas aint that bad.
These self centered boomers make me cringe.
So MaNy UnQuaLiFiEd DEI CaNdiDates!!!! OMG SOOOOOOO MANY...all 3 of them. Get a life. @1oet+1wbVlm6Q
Well, 3M’s DEI initiatives didn’t help. So many unqualified JG 14+ “victims” put into leadership roles here, it’s laughable.
I believe the entire population of the USA has elevated levels of multiple PFOS chemicals. The question is how elevated are your levels. you can get tested at Quest (pay out of pocket) to see your blood level of multiple chemicals including PFOA (the topic of Dark Waters movie). I worked with fluorochemicals in the 90s for a couple of years and my Quest test put my levels off the charts, so it doesn't take much exposure to see increased concentration in your blood. I believe it is worth paying the $300 to have the test results just in case.
You know, I didn't think it's super great that this stuff is in my blood, but if it's a forever chemical because it never breaks down then it's pretty stable in my blood, too, which means it's not reacting and not doing much to me.
Still don't want it in my blood, though.
Anyone who has been exposed to PFOS must get an electrocardiogram, blood, and ur--e tests every 48 hours to see if there's any change in your physical condition.
