WHITE HOUSE
— RESTORING EQUALITY OF OPPORTUNITY AND MERITOCRACY  To promote Affirmative Action (AA) and DEI is to destroy equal opportunity and meritocracy. Since the 1960s, those above me have used AA and DEI to ever-increasing give more preference to Democrats and to RINOs who are minority, female, and or younger. That rendered worthless my job-related a) bachelor’s degree (1970), b) three master’s degrees (1976, 1980, and 1997), c) six professional certifications (1979, 1981, 1990, 1994, 1996, and 1997), and d) professional license (1981).

— Social Security Breaks Records: Retirees’ Checks Hit $2K for the First Time. My critics/opponents remain furious that I get Social Security.

— According to my critics/opponents, all the problems that those who are liberal/moderate, non-Republican, minority, female, younger, unmarried, LGHTQ, non-Protestant, non-German American, and/or have ancestors who have not been in America for a long time are caused by those who are conservative, Republican, White, male, older, married, heterosexual, Protestant, German American, and/or have ancestors who been in America for a long time.

FAST COMPANY
— 6 necessary skills that every leader should have. My coworkers who my superiors promoted over me a) were manipulated/dominated by my superiors, b) glorified and praised my superiors, c) pandered to my superiors, d) served as operatives and as dupes for my superiors, and/or e) covered up my superiors’ wrong doing. My coworkers who were promoted the fastest/highest a) excelled at the aforesaid and/or b) excelled at destroying employees who shared my demographics.

BUSINESS BECAUSE
— Career Success. According to my critics/opponents, federal employees are not successful unless they make GS-13 ($117,807) by age 25, GS-14 ($139,211) by age 30, GS-15 ($163,749) by age 35, and Senior Executive Service ($195,200) by age 40. Since 1973, my critics/opponents have stressed that I did not make GS-13 until I was 38 and that I never made GS-14. In my defense, extremely few federal employees make the aforesaid promotion deadlines. The following frustrated my making the aforesaid promotion deadlines: a) I avoided the Vietnam Warr draft, b) I did not become a Democrat, c) I did not major in accounting at UIC 1966-1968 and NIU 1969-1970, d) I was not a minority, female, or veteran, e) I complained about political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination, f) I became an active member in a class action lawsuit that charged my superiors with reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation when I was 40, g) I did not earn an MBA until I was 27, h) I did not take and pass the CPA examination until I was 30, i) I did not earn a master’s degree in accounting until I was 31, j) I did not take and pass the Certified Internal Auditor examination util I was 32, and k) I did not become a licensed CPA until I was 32.
