A construction crew was forced to remove their 'Men Working' sign at a community college in Ohio after it was described as 'sexist and non-inclusive.'
The builders were also made to stop working until the sign was removed.
A college administrator complained about the wording at Sinclair Community College in downtown Dayton.
The female employee complained about the sign and, according to Fox News, she also suggested several alternatives to the crew, such as 'Construction Zone.'
While builders complied with the demands, work was stopped until the sign was removed.
With nearly 30,000 students, Sinclair's main site is one of the largest community college campuses in North America.
A statement on diversity on the institution's website states: 'The concept of diversity at Sinclair Community College encompasses the acceptance, inclusiveness, engagement, and mutual respect among students, faculty, staff, administrators, and members of the broader community.'
After this incident, Sinclair's director of public information Adam Murka told Fox News that the college has a 'deep commitment to diversity' and takes it 'quite seriously.'
Murka added: 'While it may not have been necessary to suggest work be stopped, we stand by our commitment to providing an environment that is inclusive and non-discriminatory.'

Why is it that when Miley Cyrus gets naked and licks a hammer it's 'art' and 'edgy' but when I do it I'm 'drunk' and 'banned from the hardware store'?
Re: Stop: Persons at work.
A fucking "personhole cover"?!?!?!?
It's a manhole cover, it's a cover for a hole that a man who works for the sewage company crawls into to work. And that man is up to his waist in shit while he's down there working. When a woman wants to do that job, she can call the cover anything she wants."

I grew up having our mail delivered by a mailman, now it's a letter carrier. Then there was the milkman but I don't know what they are called now. Construction sites now use flaggers instead of flagmen and police and fire personal have somehow been neutered as well.Gob wrote:A fucking "personhole cover"?!?!?!?

Thank goodness for the PC police for saving us from making terrible mistakes that could have long term effects on our society.
