The Cynical Girl: Monday Morning HR Humor: Gay Llama Farmer

Monday Morning HR Humor: Gay Llama Farmer Posted: 25 Feb 2013 03:45 AM PST Actually, this is not funny. From Buzzfeed: Meet Kevin, The Gay Llama Farmer From Kentucky. His animal sanctuary — home to 51 llamas and more than 300 animals total — is in jeopardy because just over a year ago, Kevin was fired for being gay. Kentucky is one of 38 states in which employees can legally be fired for being LGBT. When you allow discrimination against gay llama farmers, you are inviting discrimination towards all. Trust me: One day, they will come for your job. And they’ll come for the llamas!

The Week Ahead: February 24, 2013 Posted: 24 Feb 2013 03:45 AM PST By the time you read this, I will have completed a busy week. And depending on the time of day, I may have finished my hustle. Check the tweets below. Tweets about “LFRHustle” So what’s my week ahead like? Well, obviously I failed to write my novel on feminism, coal miners and abortion set in 1960s Appalachia. I also failed to complete my book of short stories that highlight love, alcoholism and political unrest in Prague. And I gave up on my screenplay about a Chief Marine Veterinarian at an aquarium. And you can guess that I never wrote last week’s book called 100 Essential Modern Poems About Work. That’s okay. This week I am working on a sweet little novella about a 40-year-old woman who is starting over. We don’t know the back story but we do know this: she has never had to sign a lease, call for cable installation or hook up utilities in a new apartment. The reader knows how the mundane can be infuriating. The central character has no clue. She’s about to get a lesson in life skills. And it’s tough. That will be 1000 words. Max. What’s up with your week? Anything new and exciting?
