Wow. The nation is fractured.

If 85% of whites go for Hillary that is not a fracture, that is a mandate.

I noticed something at work today. I work in a call center with approx. 350- 400 people. Breakdown is about 60 percent white/40 percent black. I saw about 20 whites with I Voted stickers and 0 blacks. The blacks I spoke with had the following reasons for not voting:

1. I didn't know where to vote

2. I don't know if I am registered

3. I don't have time

When I offered up the courthouse phone number to the two who weren't sure if they could vote or where, they couldn't be bothered. One white person overheard me and asked for the number, she found out where she could vote and went and did so on her lunch. The rest couldn't be bothered. I don't know what it means, but it just struck me as odd.

I work in a call center

You have my sympathies. I use to work in call/telemarketing center (JC Penny Catalog) and it really sucks. I am not a people person and hate talking. I don't know why I ever did it but I was young then and did a lot of dumb things.

I supervise so I am not on the phones anymore except for escalations. We do customer service for a major cell phone carrier. Not pretty. Not my first choice for a job, I already left once, they talked me in to coming back. Pay is too good for me to pass up right now. But, it's a decent job for alot of the younger kids in this area. I don't think there are too many in this area that haven't worked there. Turnover is horrendous. It's a tough job being on the phones with grouchy people.
