Sigh. I don't think we've made much progress but that's okay.

I don't support discrimination. If you have been a victim of discrimination (I have) it sucks, and I feel badly for you.

There are thousands of companies, some work hard all day and night, some have more family values, some see computer code as art, some see it as a means to an end, some aspire to operate as smoothly as possible, some as quickly as possible. Those with corrosive or illegal cultures, fade away. Sometimes not as quickly as we would like but they don't survive. There are many different ports in the world as sailors might say.

I wasn't being dismissive of shanley's article, I felt badly for her as it seems like there is a lot of emotional hurt around this issue for her. You, harryh, are also pretty invested in this issue as well it seems. I hope that you find a company that is a great 'fit' for you and have a really great experience of a solid company culture.

LOL, no we didn't get very far. You continue to make wrong assumptions and now you're being patronizing again.

It was nice talking to you though!

Not every critique is based on "emotional hurt."
