Default Re: Aviations Ugly Secret -Racial, religious & sexual discriminat

Get used to it, my friend.

When I used to pitch advertising to hotels in various small towns, when I showed up sometimes the receptionist would say, oh, who ordered Chinese. The first time, I just laughed. After it happened more than a few times, though, I was like, you have got to kidding me. Want me to bring your dry cleaning with me, too?

But it wasn't too bad. It was one hell of a way to make sure I got some business. People would feel so guilty they'd buy from me.
