The title of today's entry may be a little misleading. I'm not talking about not getting angry at something. Instead, I'm talking about someone posting something political (and offensive) at work on office equipment and not planning on doing anything about it.
As I've noted before, my office is a model of diversity. Somehow, we have people of all political persuasions working together. Yet, one incident could set off a series of falling dominoes - and I do not plan on pushing that first domino. For me, it is a female Trump supporter who has posted a "Brandon" sticker (a Trumpster's way of saying "Fuck You Biden") that bothers me. No, it's not the idea that this seemingly sane person is a Trump supporter that bothers me. Instead, it's the fact that she has affixed a political bumper sticker to her office equipment.
People will have very different views on life and yet work well together. For the purpose of maintaining peace, I plan to let this defacing of office equipment slide - especially when I do not have to see it on a regular basis. I just wonder what will happen to many of these Trump supporters if he is indicted, tried, and convicted. How will these people keep their cool in the office when people like me start cheering? Someone will push the first domino, and I don't want to be there when it happens....
