127. Guys, It's time to start registering your complaints with the EEOC
and maybe, if we think they care, the AARP. Regardless of whether these complaints are legally actionable, they can start to document a pattern that overtime will form the basis for new legislation and rules.

Even if the complaint doesn't fall within the exact rules of discrimination or time filing requirements, etc. it is important to take that first step so that this situation is on the record with a paper trail. Even if you have some "round heels" and were not the perfect person.

Right now, we have a tiger in the DOL who will back us if she can. She needs evidence and she needs a bit of a push.

Right now, many corporations are running scared of hiring H1Bs. That's why they are sending work out of the country to their overseas subsidiary. They know what's coming.

Rosa Parks was not the first African American to refuse to sit at the back of the bus. After many documented efforts by African Americans to claim their proper place, she was the right person at the right time and the right place for a movement to begin.

When EFCA comes up for consideration, I hope every man Jack here is ringing up their congress critter.
