“I’m going to reveal the truth of the biggest conspiracy in political history right now. Hillary Clinton asked me to run because she thought I could help her undermine the Republican Party. But she didn’t know I was a winner and now I’m going to win!” “America needs to elect someone who has balls.” “Blah, […]
I’m always interested in the concept of generational differences which has come up a couple times recently – after Shea attended a workshop on reaching out to young people in the workplace and then during a conversation in my workplace where a few of us “oldies” had fun explaining what life was like in the time of cassette […]
