How appropriate a thread. A post that honors a commander and chief with a checkered past when it comes to diversity and inclusion and replies that throw American Indians under the bus during American Indian Heritage Month.

Your remarks are trying to explain a situation where there are too many bosses but no one doing any work.

Many times “taking care of yourself” particularly for women translates into covering-acting like a man. 61% of all workers cover in the workplace including 45% of white men.

As new research on covering comes forward on how 61% of all workers hide their full selves at work because their differences are not being embraced, the pressure recovering alcoholics face to participate in happy hour is part of that trend. Happy hour can trigger relapses into addiction. This post is full of craving triggers that can be deadly to…[Read more]
