Never heard of him or Joyent till now, but I tried watching that video, skipping along and had a hard time not finding him being offensive. He even goes on to make light of nazis and mock a past co-workers "galactic butt", so then I just skipped even faster.

What's sad is that he seems to be talking about introducing 'drag' within the company and yet I doubt he realizes the irony given 90% of his talking content is just that.

> Same project as viewed by two peoeple having different roles

I know... It's niggly!

Sure, but probably not in the form of a traditional job with an employer where he would likely endure mental trauma over mistakes being made at a job that he depends on for money.

The sad part that most people do not understand is that if he's on 'assisted living' and gets a job he may no longer be eligible for it ever again, even if it doesn't work out.

So the idea to push a job on him could actually be the death of him and what's worse: chances are good that he might even do it to his own detriment.

Edit: reduced unintended tone. ;)

I have no doubt there are children today that are not growing up to become racist because of him. And I have no doubt there is less racism occurring, amongst todays' adults, because of him.

Hence the word "progress" and the reason why relying on decade old social studies is not the best idea.

Not to discredit your point, as I do believe it's still has some validity, but that study is 12 years old and I'd like to think there has been some progress since then... You know like maybe having a president with the name Barack Obama.

> find an open-minded employer who might listen to the situation and be willing to give Terry a shot?

When you strip away the notion, or often the facade, that jobs are not a form of enslavement then you might be asking yourself the question I'm asking: Why would you want to do that to him? It's not like he hasn't been able to find a purpose in life to keep himself happy. Or do you really know anything about him or what his needs are to suggest a 'job' would be of any help?

Neither of part 1 or 2 render on my iPad2... Just a blank white screen. I'm gathering, from the conversation here, there's something more to see😕

A cashless store - no, but that wasn't the point. The notion of an entire country going cashless is worth contemplation and certainly affects this community.
