It sounds to me like you are saying no one should question ANY way of making a living, as long as it is in the name of feeding one's family. That's a slippery slope. I'd like to point out too, I'm the only one who lost my job. Sorry if I ruffled a few feathers - dancing. <br />William Hunter Duncanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03659156353754825272noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1160895395634617774.post-17134139077450838212012-12-28T12:19:59.842-06:002012-12-28T12:19:59.842-06:00Sorry to be the only one to disagree.

Welcome. And thanks for saying so. And so...monsta,<br /><br />Welcome. And thanks for saying so. And some people at big bank did think it was cool, too. They were a lot louder than the traumatized ones, in the moment at least, spontaneously. How much they will let themselves be influenced by the traumatized mood, I can't say.<br /><br /><br />unca bob,<br /><br />Welcome to you too! And "bitchboss" didn't seem like much of a bitch, standing there, me with my underwear in my hand ;) In fact, she seemed rather soft. <br /><br />Another opportunity, yes, I hope too. <br /><br /><br />Hepp,<br /><br />Thanks. Haven't yet checked in on your blog, for your Announcement. Headed there next.<br /><br />Funny, I've been thinking lately, dancing across Europe in the wig would be fun. Soon as I figure out this house. <br /><br /> <br /><br />William Hunter Duncanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03659156353754825272noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1160895395634617774.post-48847003552726832542012-12-25T07:57:06.884-06:002012-12-25T07:57:06.884-06:00Whoa.

How pitiful pathetic, threatening security and police, treating it like a critical incident, some other zombies pretending to be traumatized to cover the banks ass and their own.<br /><br />Youre far too freespirited for that, another opportunity will present.unca bobnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1160895395634617774.post-52144480115825147442012-12-23T20:10:27.333-06:002012-12-23T20:10:27.333-06:00Quality stuff, takes a lot of guts to do what you ...Quality stuff, takes a lot of guts to do what you just did. Although I am rather perplexed at how so many people can be traumatised by something like this. People need to lighten up! To me the site of some dude in a bank suddenly dancing with a orange wig sounds pretty comical I can't see how they couldn't see the funny side of things...monstahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14455539416895222751noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1160895395634617774.post-58659701746108670732012-12-23T13:22:06.314-06:002012-12-23T13:22:06.314-06:00RE

Another called in sick Friday, too afraid she said, to come to work. Had I displayed even a shred of anger, that whole time, the trajectory of this thing would lead to a visitation by the FBI. Still not certain that won't happen, from what I heard about the aftermath. LOL. Hi Guys!<br /><br />Not that I don't sympathize with those who were disturbed by what I did; I merely sympathize more with those who might wonder why the hammer would come down on a white guy dancing, but not on say, the white guys who set up the housing market that imploded the global economy, enriching themselves betting against the thing they propagated, kicking out all the foreclosures I have been working on for barely enough to get by?William Hunter Duncanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03659156353754825272noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1160895395634617774.post-52005478965330722072012-12-22T22:20:17.186-06:002012-12-22T22:20:17.186-06:00"Some were crying.

I can see the serious looks on their faces- "we had to call in counselors- people actually saw a white man dancing "<br /><br />Not being there, it's hard to read the mood of the crowd, but knowing you, I'm sure it was in good fun. It's a statement though about how on edge and brittle a lot of workplaces are right now. People keep their heads down, trying to hold on the job at any price.<br /><br />Except the price is your soul. When that's gone, why do they keep working? <br /><br />Therefore the fear, the people fleeing, crying, unsure of what to do. Any compass- the sense of what is right or what is good is gone when you're a zombie- so of course any stimulus that's out of the ordinary is frightening. Like a baby hearing a loud noise.<br /><br />I live this every day and it's increasingly unbearable. Kudos to you for dancing your way out of there. I can only do that vicariously.Jeff Zhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06285239745975791484noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1160895395634617774.post-23310479124428549012012-12-22T11:03:58.717-06:002012-12-22T11:03:58.717-06:00John, anon and Phil,
