I hate to break it to you but 7.5 mil is a rounding error around here. Pocket change. And a 1x donation is much diff on a balance sheet than recurring employee wages and benefits.

@OP Girl, you have a serious case of Trump derangement syndrome. But in all due respect, go get some mental health support. Oh wait, maybe you are just exhausted from commuting into the office 1 day a week.

There was a time when all employees received regular emails about the company’s PAC urging us to contribute. I found that rather off-putting, but at one point took a look at which wheels they were greasing: every one.

Do you even realize how quickly the company spends $7.5 million? Basically as long as I’ve spent typing this.

@OP That’s literally the d-mbest comment I’ve seen posted on here. Get over it, or get mental health treatment.
