    Oh, you mean you get a preference? Unlike disabled people who can only get hired by companies like Goodwill?

    Also, all of this vociferous defense of Goodwill paying disabled people less than minimum wage seems to ignore the fact that a whole bunch of disabled people are saying that they’re being underpaid by Goodwill and I’m not sure why you’re not taking that into account.

        You wanna chat like an adult I’m here for it

        You started your post with “listen up, dick” even though I never insulted you, so I can’t agree with that claim.

              It was until someone got report happy. So I’ll repeat my comment in a more civil manner:

              Do I detest Goodwill as a corporation? Absolutely.

              Do I think disabled people deserve better pay? Absolutely.

              Do I think you’ve acknowledged that your local goodwill supports your neighbors? Nope.

              Do I think you’ve acknowledged your local Goodwill maybe the only community support organization helping your queer neighbors & non Christian neighbors? Nope.

              Do I think you’ve tried to boil an incredibly complex socio-economic support organization into a rage bait headline? Absolutely.

              Do I think you’re unable to actually comprehend how complex your neighborhood truly is & what good that local Goodwill might be willing to bring to the table? Absolutely.

              Do I think you’ll reply with a miseducated reconstitution of my words to support your narrative? You betcha!

                I got “report happy” because you kept breaking incivility rule.

                Do I think you’ve acknowledged that your local goodwill supports your neighbors? Nope.

                Because it was irrelevant to both my point and the links I posted.

                Do I think you’ve acknowledged your local Goodwill maybe the only community support organization helping your queer neighbors & non Christian neighbors? Nope.

                Because it was irrelevant to both my point and the links I posted.

                Do I think you’ve tried to boil an incredibly complex socio-economic support organization into a rage bait headline? Absolutely.

                I posted two links to support my point, you apparently didn’t notice.

                Do I think you’re unable to actually comprehend how complex your neighborhood truly is & what good that local Goodwill might be willing to bring to the table? Absolutely.

                Also not relevant to my point, but again uncivil, so I will again get “report happy.”

                Do I think you’ll reply with a miseducated reconstitution of my words to support your narrative? You betcha!

                “Miseducated” isn’t a word.

                My only point this entire time is that Goodwill doesn’t pay disabled people enough. You apparently agree, so I’m not sure why you’ve been so hostile.

                    You almost managed to be civil the entire time and then you got to the last sentence. I have not insulted you, I have not been aggressive with you, I have been nothing but cordial. If you want to have an adult conversation, one would think the least you could do would be to not reciprocate with anger, aggression and insults.
