So there is now a big 15-20 min speel about diversity BS capped off with a "defining" unconcious bias.

Explain that to me- does it mean I am a racist / homophobic bigoted hateful white male even tho I treat everyone the same in or out of bidness sitiations? Thank the Heavens I have big bro to set me straight...

What say u?

One good thing about being old without kids is that we won't have to deal with this crap much longer. I feel sorry for people that have to worry about the future for their kids and grandkids.

We need some really hard times to get people back on the right track about what's important in life.

Where is it? Cable? If so I won't be able to see it till it's uploaded to something on the Internet.

It is really upsetting as a woman with 4 white males who I love dearly.

I'm not backing down on it and I'm doing my best to raise my 3 boys to be as waxed in spirit as I can. Teaching my daughter to be an encouragement and tough as nails, too.

Amen, Paul.

That's a good way to think about it. COVID did that to a point. Got a lot of people to pull their kids from public schools. Forced them to realize they could do it because they were forced to with the shut down.

You're sure right Paul. Before anyone can help your neighbors they have to take this POC. This BS is the only thing we haven't seen- most of us a dozen times or more.

Mrs L this is a certification for experienced insurance adjusters so it's a webinar by invitation only.

Thankfully it's almost over. I have skipped gettin this cert a few yrs here and there, but beings my flood cert # is from 2005. This is 20 yrs that NOTHING has changed. Nothing- not even any coverage limits.

Who wants to bet all the NFIP / FEMA ppl and the political types have all gotten substantial raises and much bigger houses in the last 20 yrs?

Oh, gotcha.

Yeah, my job tried throwing that garbage at me. Told them it was indoctrination and told them I wasn't going to do it. They had some pushback but I threatened to sue them. Still working there. They figured it out and I didn't have to take it.

Threatening to sue an employer would most likely get some males fired. But, when the "I'm a girl card" gets played, it sometimes changes an employer's outlook on things. Sometimes.

My job wasn't a huge loss. I have religious exemption and I could prove it. That was the difference. Please don't think I'm judging anyone for not pulling the trigger. You can however be encouraged some are pushing back on it.

Haha, when my wife was working for the SSA, they had a zoom meeting about “white privilege.” I was home at the time and listening. They wanted all the white people on the call to take turns and apologize for being white and having an advantage over people of color. I could see my wife getting madder by the minute as folks were actually doing it. She muted herself and asked “Think I’m gonna quit, you good with that?” I told her you do it or I’ll do it for you.
When it got to her turn, she said “Well, it’s like this, I ain’t privileged and anyone who thinks that way can KMA, all I want to know is where to send this computer because I’m not bowing down to anyone.” You could’ve heard a pin drop, lol. The supervisor asked, “Are you resigning?” She said “Nope, that’s too official, I’m quitting and by the way I’ve recorded this BS and will be sending it to every person I know up the chain.”
Not sure what happened after that, but they call her monthly trying to get her to come back to work. She told them she’s content being a stay at home mom and Granny.
