About slavery and employment, have you ever seen the program called “Diamond Road” that documents the so-called underground world of diamond trading and showing where they come from and the people who are basically forced into “diamond hunting” because there aren’t any other jobs in their area (Sierra Leone) and make less than $3 a day?

No, but unfortunately, the world seems to exhaust the extremes of human behavior, and so horrors still abound. There are innumerable ways that my predicament is sweeter than theirs, and those of millions of others.

The daily cognitive experience is one of relativity, though, so I’m still going to be pissed tomorrow when the 666 layers of managment can’t find the will to shut up and think for more than an elapsed commercial break. If I’m still thankful that this is the worst of it, will that save anyone?
