Hillary got fired!

[ccpup]

I just learned this and found it hilarious! Courageous -- and not what I'd expect from her --, but hilarious:

n 1969, Hillary graduated with departmental honors in political science. Stemming from the demands of some students, she became the first student in Wellesley College history to deliver their commencement address. According to reports by the Associated Press, her speech received a standing ovation lasting seven minutes. She was featured in an article published in Life magazine, due to the response to a part of her speech that criticized Senator Edward Brooke, who had spoken before her at the commencement; she also appeared on Irv Kupcinet's nationally-syndicated television talk show as well as in Illinois and New England newspapers.

(and now the funny part)

That summer, she worked her way across Alaska, washing dishes in Mount McKinley National Park and sliming salmon in a fish processing cannery in Valdez (which FIRED HER and shut down overnight when she COMPLAINED about unhealthy conditions).

for some reason I just find that funny :evilgrin:
