“There is nothing wrong with that woman’s body”

Your boss isn’t owed any information on your family planning desires! Keep up the good work at work and good luck with baby. 

The article doesn’t detail any of the work schedule suggestions put forth by either party so I don’t know how you would know they didn’t attempt at all to be flexible?

But they knew she was having a baby and said they were going to be flexible.  My best guess from what we know is that she wanted a more flexible schedule than they had in mind. 

“She continued to have face-to-face meetings with her future employers, right up until eight days prior to her delivery.”

This definition of racism has been pushed by undergrad social warriors for at least a decade now and, fortunately, it doesn’t seem to be making as much ground as they want it to because there are just so many holes in its logic. This new definition is just describing what has been referred to as “institutionalized…

“Umm racism is prejudice + power.”

It doesn’t help opening people’s minds to change. Insulting and belittling someone isn’t going to encourage them to listen to you and engage in introspection so that they may change. They’ll shut down and dig in their heels. However, I suspect you know this.

I know your comment was a joke... a rude and dismissive joke that doesn’t help.

Probably not, but presumably the test can be taken out of the packaging when not in the home/office/wherever and thrown away somewhere else. Maybe in that store itself? Street trash can?

“you assume this man knows what words like “precisely” and “routinely” and “seminar” and “aware” mean...”

“Lactose-intolerant people, nutritionists, skeptics...”

I finally did Accutane in my mid-20s and it was a miracle. About 6 years later, I still get some cysts but they are much smaller and go away after 2 or 3 days, rather than WEEKS.

I think the “right to be forgotten” stuff is all sorts of tricky and I don’t necessarily think it’s a good idea for the United States. However, I would support more restriction on what can be published about minors, even if the report is coming from the parent. I don’t think the parents in this article were being…

Well, no. The other very obvious reason is to possibly find fame or a large payout.

I remember that hand exfoliator/serum set and it was amazing! A few years ago, I attempted to buy another set from a Mary Kay girl I felt kinda bad for but the kit was $80 something bucks. Sorry girl and hands.

“In general however I would say white people should not be dressing up as people of color for Halloween, even if they’re not doing it in an overtly racist way simply because white people already have everything”

LW1 needs to find a real problem and mind her own business. She has already put way too much mental energy in thinking about something that doesn’t have to affect her.

The only documentation that 10 year old me had was my social security card and birth certificate, both of which were safely stored at home. There has to be more to this story than reported here.

This does seem likely, but don’t some school districts have rules about adults being in the locker room when the students are changing? It is possible that they didn’t know about it.
