That seems to be the consensus amongst my Republican coworkers...

... that they all suck.

It's actually a rather interesting mix we have on the weekends/second shift. We all did the political compass test and the most conservative amongst us scored in the dead center of the compass (leading us to suspect some liberal bias to the questions, given he's pro-life, pro-war, and anti-welfare, tho can at least talk about it without frothing at the mouth). We then have a Tea Party/gun-toting/"Don't Tread On Me" sticker having guy who was brought up in the middle of the woods in Arkansas, a California college traditional liberal, and me (slightly to the right of the other True Blue Liberal, I supported Hillary in 2008 tho I gave in to the inevitable with grace).

Our boss walked in while we were having political conversation and I was quick to speak up and say, "But it's friendly, I promise! And we keep the door shut!"
