redpepper replied to Brian Wheeler's discussion 'Have you suffered discrimination at work?'"I'm sure the original intent of this post is long past deadline, but the topic is still interesting.

Michelob replied to Brian Wheeler's discussion 'Have you suffered discrimination at work?'"Is it anything like the albino black bear? I don't think I will buy it from you. I would just turn it into a very expensive steak!"
William C. Walker replied to Brian Wheeler's discussion 'Have you suffered discrimination at work?'"Hi Michelob, I happen to own an albino black sheep that I would let you have for, say $5,000.00."
Michelob replied to Brian Wheeler's discussion 'Have you suffered discrimination at work?'"Why is also not putting any responsibility on the employer without a backbone? I agree, the relative is a troll, but Niall currently works for a company who does not stand behind their people. It is one thing for a person to rock the…"
Michelob replied to Brian Wheeler's discussion 'Have you suffered discrimination at work?'"I am aware of the pagan origins of Christmas, Easter, Lent, Pentacost...

Niall replied to Brian Wheeler's discussion 'Have you suffered discrimination at work?'"It's fine really. My new location is slightly easier and the staff are nice. No one there knows my beliefs- and before this job I was a Christian so no one really cared. It's fine I guess- I wish I had a better response than "Hello,…"

Welles Ph.D.The Story of Stupidity"subtitled,A History of Western Idiocy from the days of Greece to the Moment You Saw this Book. Both he and the book have my unqualified endorsement and it's a…"
William C. Walker replied to Brian Wheeler's discussion 'Have you suffered discrimination at work?'"Niali, You are the victim of a Xianut troll. You have my sympathy. I have been 'defriended' by people I've known for forty plus years when they learned that I do not worship the late J.C. - if he did indeed ever exist."
William C. Walker replied to Brian Wheeler's discussion 'Have you suffered discrimination at work?'"NO, Michelob, just continue to drink the figurative kool aid of religion - whichever of the 1.000sc of brands suits you. OR, read some history books on the pagan origins of Xianity. Up to especially the 4th century."
