Twenty years ago, I was recruited by a company.  They praised me to the skies, offered me less money than I was currently making, and told me that since they were Scientologists, the working environment that created made up for the lower pay... and  there was a bonus structure, too: if I did a good job I would be sent ...more

There are race specific and gender specific scholarships awarded at colleges around the country every year.  Why should this one be singled out as racist?  If this scholarship is legally changed to be all-inclusive, then the courts should also rule that there can be no race or gender specific scholarships allowed anywh...more

"Gray hair could be cured scientifically using science, say some scientists."  Wow.  Please tell me this sentence was intentionally written that badly.  If not, there's a J-school somewhere that is hoping the author of this article never, ever mentions his or her alma mater.

Once in awhile, big business get it right.  Good job, Delta.

Unless there's a video of what happened, it's a classic he said / she said as to whether the two guys were told why they were being made to change clothes.  If you fly on a buddy pass, you have to adhere to the airlines' dress code for employees traveling on their flights.  If you want to dress however you feel like, t...more
