    What do you do when a boss you like...and who likes you...says in private at work something totally sexist and racist about a co-worker?? Oi Vey. :confused:

    Can you say...nothing?
    It was once...but I don't want it to become a pattern...nor associated with it. (guilty by listening)

    The woman he's talking about...very intelligent, very capable...but just mean & brutal when she gets on a rant & roll. However, that's no excuse for him to rationalize her behavior as due to her sex or race.

    I need him on my side...it's a politically volatile place.
    But that's not what I'm comfortable with...or agree with...or want to be close to.

    Being in confidence...it can be a two-edged sword.

    When I see some of the things that dog fanciers do to poodles it helps me understand why dog bites man. Or woman.

    I have a good friend here, my attorney actually. His Dr. told him three years ago he had to stop drinking all alcohol. Well all alcohol except vodka. He could drink all that he wanted. That lasted about 3 weeks and resulted in a lengthily ICU stay.

    Who knew vodka was alcohol? News to me.

    I think we got golden retriever because we probably answered positively to all the sporty, adventuresome questions. Plus, we're very social.

    I saw the celebrity episode of Jeopardy featuring Aaron Rodgers, Kevin O'Leary (Shark Tank), & astronaut Mark Kelly as the contestants. Rodgers won, earning $50,000.00 for his charity, Midwest Athletes Against Childhood Cancer. O'Leary actually finished in the red/negative numbers, but under Celebrity Jeopardy rules he was allowed to participate in Final Joopardy.

    The questions for Celebrity Jeopardy were definitely dummied down. I watch Jeopardy often enough to notice it, and more telling is the fact that I was actually able to correctly answer quite a few of the questions.

    Kevin O'Leary is the Canadian answer to Donald Trump. The man's a troll. As far as I can tell he's just managed to continuously fail upward.

    So him being bad at Jeopardy isn't really very surprising at all.

    Funny how his wikipedia article doesn't mention him being sued by shareholders.
