    My nightmare of a previous boss called my moissanite engagement ring “cheap” and “trashy,” and treated us to a 30-minute speech about how if it’s not “real” diamond, it doesn’t count.

    I hope sucking down those Marlboro blacks takes care of that problem of a woman sooner, rather than later, and in the meantime the gorgeous rainbow sparkle of my pretty ring is made all the more beautiful for the complete lack of child slavery that went into making it!

    … I also just realized that horrible harridan didn’t have an engagement ring, or even a boyfriend, and now some things make sense.

      Average employer. I bet they only see diamonds as legitimate because of the slave labour put into them.
