I travel for work 40-60 days/year. I think last year had me to 7 or 8 states for work (about half in the South or Mid-West) and another 3 for pleasure - not counting New England states. My job has me working with people that cover almost every demographic in the country from Russian Jewish activists supporting Israel to high profile political figures from both parties to the poorest of the poor to Gay Republican Organizations to professional athletes.
One fun part about my job is that I can't have a "Comfort Zone." One day I could be producing an event where Bill Bellichick is the guest speaker and a few days later I'm producing a fundraiser event for wounded veterans.
I'll be the first to say that I don't have nearly the life experiences as most on this forum, but one thing I do have is perspective. I've been fortunate to be forced outside of my little box of comfort regularly.
Every single person on this forum is guilty of being prejudice. I've traveled, I've bumped elbows, I've shared beers with many of people from the region... and I stand by what I said.
