That’s so noble of you not to blame coal minors trying to survive in an economically depressed area or engineers, software developers, or other well-educated individuals that I’m talking about working at Lockheed in one of the wealthiest areas on the planet.

Just two groups of similar people, with so few options available to them, trying to grind it out in the great American experience.

Riiiiight… I hear this all the time living in this area and it cracks me up.

“Yeah, I work for one of the most evil companies on the planet, one whose growth is predicated on endless (and usually illegal) wars and bombings but, hey, a job’s a job right?”

She’ll post about police brutality and gun deaths while working here:

Not to get way off topic but I wouldn’t trust anything written by that blog. It’s run by Jenny Solpietro, who is basically a parrot for her friend local developer lobbyist Tom Coale.

The irony of running a “progressive” blog while working for Lockheed Martin has somehow been completely lost on her too, lol.
