the Daily Whale - 2 November 1991

< yesterday -- tomorrow >

Burger King claims in an advertisement to be “An equal opportunity employer—M/F/H/V.” I read that out slowly. Male/Female/Hispanic/Violet? Burger King will give you a job even if you’re purple?

clue:

My assiduous research staff finally discovered that “M/F/H/V” probably means male/female/handicapped/veteran, though I’m still holding out for marginal/frequency/horizontal/vertical.

give me a clue so sweet and true
