^ if that sentiment applies to DEI panty wadding full stop, I bow to your wisdom. But if your panty-wad-o-meter only works in one direction you have quite a few blind spots around who the whiny losers really are

I have family members who grew up under Jim Crow…not talking about it doesn’t make it any less true how little removed we are from that reality, or how it is still effecting communities today. But i suppose it’s much more comfortable to pretend the pain and triumphs in adversity never happened.

BCG2 if you do not care to talk about them or what they went through, that is your choice. But when the history of my family’s existence looks like this, I think it’s fair to acknowledge how recent this all is and the massive impacts it still has today.

I think celebrating historically marginalized people is great. I do think it’s a balance though when you’ve got a whole month…like, keep things at a low boil for the month vs. maxed up the whole time …otherwise a month is a long time and it kind of loses peoples attention if it’s over the top the whole time.

You are right. I don’t remember seeing anything. May be they did send something but it was obviously way less than usual.

Will it hurt our business? If yes, don’t do it. If no, do it. With either decision, someone’s going to be offended - placate whoever has the power these days.

Hi all,
I’m currently working for a small technical consulting start-up firm. I make good money, have great benefits, and they seem very happy with the work I’m doing, so I know I could move up quickly. However, tech consulting is definitely not my dream job. I want to get into data analytics, and I have an offer from a big company to do just that. I’ve only been at my current company for about 8 months, but I don’t ever see myself loving this job. How do I know when it’s time to make a change?
