Transitioning from a bench research scientist, I once contemplated a shift toward law enforcement. Interestingly, I considered nursing, the military, and law enforcement, with education initially ranking lower due to my aversion to working with middle school teens and teenagers. Surprisingly, I excelled and survived 22 secondary STEM educations, with my humble beginning as a bus driver. I applied for a law enforcement job. Despite not being chosen due to my typing speed—at least, that was what I was told then—I have always valued my career. Moreover, I was overqualified for the job at the time. This led me to pursue a fulfilling career path as an educator. Each career path, law enforcement, healthcare, and military, including teaching, offers fulfillment and stability, provided one is diligent and proficient in one's role. We also need more law enforcement officers. Application may require a college degree. Please check with the jurisdiction before applying. #LawEnforcement #MilitaryService #HearCareIndustries #Teachers #Educator

In #Colorado a federal judge tossed out a lawsuit brought by a former prison employee over #diversity training and anti-racism initiatives. 👉🏾 Here's what happened: The ex-employee sued, claiming that the mandatory diversity training and anti-racism programs at their workplace violated their constitutional rights and amounted to compelled speech. BUT, the judge ruled in favor of the employer, stating that the programs were legitimate efforts to promote diversity and combat discrimination. So, what does this mean for DEI programs in the workplace? I think this decision sends a clear message that DEI programs are not only beneficial but also legally permissible.
