[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Squeaky wheel gets the grease - this saying has always been true, IMO.

We used a fantastic software package at work that everyone loved except for ONE person who was always very vocal and loud about his distaste of it. When it was time for our yearly renewal, our boss remembered all the negative complaints from the ONE person and chose to look for a new software. So then we all got to learn a new software and go about becoming certified users of it. What happens 2 months later? Squeaky wheel transfers to another department and we're all stuck with this terrible software for 10 more months.

I'm sorry you got stuck with a terrible software system, but if you consider that in this case the "squeaky wheels" are parents of children with special needs, this analogy has tinges of ableism. Also, in what universe is a toddler wearing a cloth mask for half the day analogous to a "fantastic software package"? Even experts now recognize the protection offered by cloth masks in ideal conditions is limited. As worn by toddlers in child care settings I don't know how you argue that plays any significant role in preventing transmission.[/quote]
