Diversity Training

Yesterday I took a class on diversity training during my morning job. A lot of the people I work with seem really nice, but since I only work there part time, I don’t get to talk to them much, so I was hoping that by going to this class I’d get to meet some new people. That didn’t happen, but here are some things I learned during Diversity Training:

1. Women control 80 percent of the spending in most households.
2. The Hispanic population in western North Carolina has increased by 129 percent in the past five years.
3. Never, no matter how hungry you are, should you gulp down a huge bowl of chili 10 minutes before attending an hour-long Diversity Training class, during which there are no bathroom breaks.
