It's all fun and games until someone loses an....election!  |
I know what you mean. I work in a big corporate office and until Nov. 5th, all anyone could talk about was the election. I walked in on Nov. 5th and it was the day after the O.J. trial all over again. Nothing but silence except for lots of whispering and side conversations going on. Some people who usually speak to me weren't speaking. It was ridiculous!!! A Black colleague of mine even told me she heard racial slurs in her department and I heard someone speak of assassination and then laugh. Even though they didn't vote for Obama (obviously), they could still be proud of how far the country has come. Sometimes I think that there are some people (maybe many) that could care less how far the country has come. If it were up to them, we might still be picking cotton...
