My spouse is pretty leftist and works at an “institution of higher learning”. Told me they had a “Mexican Food Party” the other day. ALL WHITE COOKS AND ATTENDEES. I said that was “cultural mis-appropriation”. Silence.
Gawd, I love being a conservative troll!!!!!
Ha, same spouse here. But we love them ; )
I was called on the carpet of an HR director gal today of the “new liberal” persuasion. Seems her job is to dash cold water on anything too conservative. Like talk about caring about sick people (eek, HIPAA!), about faith (eek, EEO!), about being a hick and proud of it (eek, more EEO!), etc. A multifecta of red flags. But they didn’t want to fire me. Oh no... because the client loves me. Which they didn’t want to SAY but they jolly well know!! Part of which love happened due to all this controversial stuff!
Well she’s all gung ho about Halloween. “Don’t Forget!!” she said in email to the whole bloomin’ company. Every office is going to have a decoration contest!
Well I shot her a note asking how considerate this was of traditional Christians. Don’t know how she’s going to sputter back, but yeah. Conservative troll.
How can you guys handle having lefty spouses? I would be too turned off. I do have some apolitical liberal friends who are really more ill informed than dogmatic communists. Maybe that is the situation in your homes.
