It’s wild that we live in a society where feeding children is a political topic. I completely agree - I hope this passes! We’ve been tracking behavioral data over the last 10 years or so - just like where it happened, the month it happened, the consequence etc. You can clearly see in the data the year we started our free breakfast/lunch program. The behaviors decrease by 50%!

No, I was wrong, the price is $4.85.

Sometimes you really can't get away from the famous line from writer Adam Serwer: "The cruelty is the point." There are people, some holding political power, who believe the poor should live in misery and should be shamed at every opportunity. And the idea that a hungry kid might get a meal will always be a stone in their shoe.

We have people in our community who think that we shouldn't have kids on free or reduced lunches. I know how difficult it was with just one child, and I cannot imagine how the families feel who have 4 or 5 kids in school.

There are students who actually sit at a table and don't eat because they do not have money on their account, or they don't have food to bring from home. I hope it passed.

I agree with this. I dont' think that children should have any sort of meal debt.

I don’t know it’s just everything in this country has to become a political issue. Why fight over this just feed kids lunch at school. Should be free for everybody. You know whether kids can afford it or not if everybody’s provided a free hot meal for lunch and breakfast. no one feels targeted everybody’s full and happy and healthier and better able to learn. Why is this controversial?

A teacher told me today that our school lunches have now gone up to $4.85, unless the student is on free or reduced lunches

Trying to give this company a chance but see an opportunity at PWC I think I would be a great fit for. Any advice?

UPDATE (RE: SoCal Assistant Controller Interview)

So after two weeks of waiting (and giving up on the idea of getting the job really), the recruiter got back to me.

They said due to month-end and quarter-end close they were busy and couldn’t get back to me as quickly for a “good update”.

The recruiter said the CFO enjoyed our call, she, the CFO, will call me next week directly to “discuss some final things”.

Not sure if Im hired or not, but are there any questions about the job, comp (cont.)
