Wiki-what?

This post today is from my husband. An email he received at work:

Celebrate Women’s Equality Day – Friday, August 26!

Women’s Equality Day is a day proclaimed each year by the United States President to commemorate the giving of the vote to women throughout the country on an equal basis to men.

Women in the United States were given the right to vote on August 26, 1920 when the 19^th Amendment to the United States Constitution was certified. The amendment was first introduced many years earlier in 1878.

Please let me know if you have any questions, comments, or concerns.

Thanks,

Ahh, so refreshing to see our state NRCS employees really embracing the mission of keeping the workplace non-discriminatory and publicizing equal rights information WITH INFORMATION TAKEN FROM WIKIPEDIA!!

I hope this woman wasn’t thinking, “A man with this task would have just sent out the first crap that came up on his google search, so that’s what I’ll do too.”
