    Okay fine, "the long string of nonsensical circumstances called 'opportunities' that allow one to pay for both one's own existence, and the daily booze regimen to cope."

      I was only joking

              I imperil my career just fine on my own, thank you. (And seriously, the woke shit has caused me legitimate problems at work. I only find it so funny.)

                Working from home insulates one from the need to address, care in any way, about wokeness in the workplace. That matters, because break room conversations can sometimes be opportunities for the woke to sniff out Others or to confirm their speculation about potential Others. Ever been asked to emote on the spot about how disgusted you are about some right wing political thing? I have. But not anymore.

                  What's wrong with the bluntly indifferent response? "I don't care about any of that stuff. I need you to help me with XYZ project." You do that often enough and they'll dismiss you as a potential Other and stop asking.

                  No?

                      Sometimes our Vice Presidents who give quarterly results presentations to the company are called upon to publicly address diversity and inclusion topics. They even have to answer unscripted questions about it. Good luck having ambition to rise up the corporate ranks if you can’t at least pretend convincingly that you’re on board with all things woke.

                            My biggest concern is the dismantling of equality for equity… That scares the ever loving crap out of me.

                                  DEI Statements are becoming de rigueur for company websites. I honestly don’t believe that 70% of the people out there understand that there is a difference between equality and equity and what that difference truly means.
