Really upset right now. I landed this dream job a few years back working as a Data Scientist but the woke cancer has finally infected my once-beloved company.

After I saw videos of 2 senseless acts of violence against Trump supporters/white people this weekend alone, I receive a timely memo regarding training. One of the sentences in the beginning reads: "This year has presented unimaginable challenges, and with recent community tensions following the tragic killing of George Floyd". Our "Diversity & Inclusion" department is making us take a mandatory training with 4 courses:

  1. Knowing Me Knowing You
  2. Micro Messages
  3. Minus The Bias
  4. The In Crowd

.... no thanks! I really don't think this was appropriate at all. I want to find a new dream job!

I'm an award winning Data Scientist with a B.S. in Computer Science and a B.S. in Statistics open to any opportunity! I'm a very motivated person especially when I feel respected and supported (unlike right now). So far, most of my work experience is building predictive models for both commercial and operational business processes with incredible results.

I actually know the new Director heading up Data Science efforts at WMT although he isn't located in Arkansas (Dallas, I believe). Should be pretty similar to HQ?

I've been looking to move to Arkansas, specifically NWA and one of these vendor jobs would be ideal. Any tips on where to look/who to contact?
