How would you respond to the following perspective, “The United States is a nation founded on both an ideal and a lie.”

"The United States is a nation founded on both an ideal and a lie" seems like a reasonable summary to me.

I know it doesn't go with the original question, but, I feel that our government has far more lies associated with it today than our founding fathers time.

Hi Wisconsin, what do you mean? Could you give an example to help me understand your perspective?

I was in the final stages of an interview with Microsoft two weeks ago, in partner marketing. Then the recruiter told me they were putting the hiring process on hold to assess the need for the role. Well, then we heard about Microsoft layoffs last week. Seems like most were in Xbox and Project Alpha but there’s not a lot of information out there. Should I hold out any hope that I’m going to get this job? Any insights on how much these layoffs have impacted the marketing org and/or new hiring?

A new analyst has joined our team and we often give them models/ slides but don’t always ask them if they know all of the accounting principles to be able to make minute adjustments to EBITDA or free cash flow. We are a FIG platform, so the knowledge required is relatively unique as well and not as easy to google as corporate transactions. Is there a better way to coach the analyst short of just throwing them in the deep end to figure it out or should we wait for them to ask us for help?

I’m struggling with an issue with a student right now. I teach in a suburban school outside of NYC that has a very large majority of white students.

This was a kid that my Black student thought was his friend. He’s heartbroken, and so am I. I want to know how I can best support my student.
