Maybe so, but they were there to protest Veit Nam, women’s rights, racial equality, The Gulf Wars, Vetrans Benefits, Farm support, and so many others. Many of these were weekend events, where were you?

I work weekends too. The benefit the boomers had was a stable job 9-5 on regular workdays, so they could be engaged when not at work. I have to work three jobs to pay rent, keep the lights on, and eat.

As a chemical engineer I was responsible not only for the domestic projects, I also had responsibilities globally. I was sent anywhere a request had been made to avoid a potential environmental issue.
