She has employees? I thought she was perpetually unemployed.
She's a supervisor at a call center. It's her husband who bounces from job to job.
They live in Colorado, some city north of Denver.
And she's betrayed her real attitudes, in that subconscious Freudian slip.
"
My" employees--as if she owns them, as if these human beings are property of hers.
I've had people work under my supervision, but I've
never considered them "mine;" they were always "the staff" or "the workforce" or "the other people in the office" or somesuch.
A lot of primitives do that; "my employees," "my staff," "my secretary," and so on.
<<<has had secretaries before--although not recently--and always referred to them by their name, not as "
my secretary."
<<<doesn't have the slave-owning mentality primitives do.
