According to common sense, the outsource companies to contract US institutions canteens, and I am afraid that their commitment to work for people with intellectual disabilities, because the federal government is to encourage the contractor to hire the disabled. I commute to work every day, there will be a special minibus shuttle these people with intellectual disabilities, in view of our these "normal" staff, some quite jealous.
