(I paraphrase)

why do we do all that? the history of slavery and Jim Crow!

so, basically, the whole country has to forever pay for the sins of the Democrat party!

listening to the working mother commentary reminded me of a job I had, years ago... until they had to lay off a lot of people.

There were something like 10 of us working out of that office. I was one of the most billable employees they had (I think, at the time, there were 3 of us that were billable ALL the time).

but when the cuts came, I was one of those that got the boot (and the other two, as well).

I was BAFFLED. until I saw who the others were. by the time I got down to my car I'd realized that all the single people had been laid off.

of course. the office manager was trying to protect the people with families.

that's all I've ever thought about it.... until today!

looking back, I remember that the office was shut down a few months later. now, I realize... they laid off the most productive staff they had and kept the ones who had to be home by a certain time every day.
