I received a letter from my employer today that partially addressed the election....

[Horse with no Name]

excerpted:

"In recent weeks, I have heard a number of staff express anxiety and concern, uncertain of their inclusion and acceptance as full members of American society. I want to assure everyone that [we] will remain inclusive as an institution, as a reflection both of our inherent values and our recognition that diversity makes us stronger and is essential to our success."


I'm not sure if this makes me laugh or makes me cry.

1. You are lucky to work where you do.

[Horse with no Name]

2. Yes I am

However, you would be very shocked at who my employer is.

3. Perhaps, but it would be a pleasnat shock.

It's more usual to hear that some employer is worse than thought.

4. heard from a friend

that when the company president addressed the employees and had a Q&A, a woman asked if as a result of the election their code of conduct requirements would change. He said - that's a good question.

5. I got a similar letter as well.

On Nov. 9th, the company I work for in NC sent a similar letter pledging their commitment to equal treatment and rights for all employees no matter sex, gender, race.... They have also added gender neutral bathrooms in response to the "bathroom bill". This was quite astonishing to me since this company tends to be conservative.
