Pat Flood (@rebarcock) passed away 9/21/25. Pat played a huge role in encouraging the devolopmemt of this site and donated the very first dollar to get it started. Check the thread at the top of the board for the obituary and please feel free to pay your respects there. I am going to get all the content from that thread over to his family so they can see how many people really cared for Pat outside of what they ever knew. Pat loved to tell stories and always wanted everyone else to tell stories. I think a great way we can honor Pat is to tell a story in his thread (also pinned at the top of the board).

Apologize
I attended. When the speaker said we have to find a way to
change the way 50 plus year old white men think I sighed loudly and kicked back in my chair and folded my arms.
My white, female 30 year old boss looked at me and shook
her head. After the call she told me not to get fired. She said she agreed it was bullshit but they aren’t playing.
She also said if they enforce the clot shot we all need to walk
out together.
I like her.

Should've walked out as soon as the speaker told you what to think.

I can ride out the bullshit.
Wonderful not working for a racist company that tells me I am evil because of my skin color, God Speed OP

What a CUNT
Same. 16 years in and hopefully a lifetime to go. I can click thru an online training. Work from home made me love the job even more

Thats good then.
I have so little self control that if I worked from home I'd have a jag on by 1:00pm every day and my food bill would triple.

Tell them you believe in equality, not equity.
Where do you work, so I know never to use their service or product?
That’s because corporate America is full of pussies.
Record it, brother.

Report her anonymously and tell HR that it makes you and the entire team feel unsafe. At minimum you will have your HR team wasting time interviewing everyone.
This seems like a good opportunity lost. I am not sure I could have held back.
