It annoys me that everyone is *only*talking about reparations for slavery. I think the Jim Crow era was more detrimental. These are two separate events to me.

Who are “they” supposed to pay? Because last I checked we aren’t beholden to anyone but ourselves nowadays. Reparations are a straw man argument that masks actual issues

Reparations can come in many forms other than a check to individuals

EY1 I'm confused 3/5 was during slavery.

Also, how involved are you REs? I’ve been through 2 retrievals now, but feel kinda in the dark still on a lot of things. Some of the nurses are hit or miss and if I want to talk to my doctor I have to schedule a consultation and its typically a 2 week wait.

Asking for a friend:
My friend received two job offers for Account Executive roles: a Mid-Market role with Confluent and an Enterprise role with ThoughtSpot. He’s conflicted because Confluent is a more established company, ThoughtSpot is Pre-IPO. Confluent is a lucrative product to sell and has established SDR reps so there’s a good blend of inbound and outbound sales. Thoughtspot is more of a startup culture where most of the sales comes from outbound and it’s a tougher sell.
