Access is a relative term. If you have the opportunity for advancement at another location but your job doesn't grant you the means to travel to that location how is that access?

Detroit has a shitty public transportation system made worse by the former mayor and the current financial crisis

I would guess that sometime during 15 years of employment that advancement opportunities did arise in the place she does work (and has had access to daily). I can't say with 100% certainty that she didn't try out for those opportunities, but I am guessing she didn't (for whatever reasons).

Correction people with enough money and were the right skin color left years ago.

DETROIT (AP) — The first report by Detroit's emergency manager declares that the city is broke and at risk of running completely out of money — a financial meltdown that could mean no paychecks for workers, no pension benefits and even deeper cuts in services.


If the city cannot avert disaster, the only remaining option appears to be bankruptcy, a threat that looms large over Kevyn Orr's urgent efforts to make deals with creditors and debt holders.

The 41-page report was filed with the state Treasurer's office Monday and shows a city flirting with insolvency.

Detroit area turnaround expert James McTevia says Orr may choose to go before a bankruptcy judge "when he gets his back against the wall and he can't meet payroll and he has to have court protection."
