JD Lud Posted July 13 Share Posted July 13 Try experiencing it from inside a Fortune 50 company. It is not about what you have accomplished or your character and work ethic, it’s about your gender and color for every job opportunity and filling the quotas. Oh and meetings about how quotas are a good thing and not driven by trying to meet a quota….yep you read that right. we have a pension plan and a nice 401k where I work and 15 year people are leaving in very high numbers as because they are white males they are suddenly toxic.

bgavin Posted July 13 Share Posted July 13 Yep. Been there, worked in that, and retired from it. We had posters in the restrooms... Don't stand on the toilet seat and dive bomb the bowl. Sinks are not for feet washing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caladisi kid Posted July 13 Share Posted July 13 Newspaper reporter and essayist H. L. Mencken once wrote, “Freedom of the press is limited to those who own one.” In other words, it is ultimately those who own the newspapers and media outlets who determine what information gets published. It is the responsibility of those that read/see it to determine how they interpret/comprehend the material and how one should act, if at all. Just my 2 cents.

JD Lud Posted July 13 Share Posted July 13 fitting for todays topic. I almost ordered a rainbow flag for the backdrop of my home office just to be left alone and be able to be considered for promotions.

Waxahachie Kid #17017 L Posted July 14 Share Posted July 14 The media can't even give you a definition of what a female is, so we should not be too surprised at what they do. They think everyone is a dumb as they are, and they put warnings on everything, including some of the old Warner Brothers cartoons!!! If anyone looks at movies, or cartoons, and thinks that is way it was, back then, then they need to go lie down and have a piece of fruit. Since when does holly-weird ever get anything accurate about anything? This is just a crummy way that they can C.Y.A., so they won't be liable, in case some nut-job out there may sue them for some reason, using the lame excuse that they were not informed beforehand.
