I've known some Zen Buddhists who were jackasses.
I already know what I'm gonna call her. Got a name all picked out...

Hey, my cousin's husband's father founded a big zen center out in the midwest...but he's dead now.
Huh, a picture of Las Cruces was a PoD on that site: [link]

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I'm pretty sure there is no category of employers which is jackass-free as a whole. Sadly.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Did you ask your boss if he was a jackass?

I suppose you could inquire about the percentage of jackasses during the interview.

Hmmm. What about the Amish? Are there Amish jackasses?

Pfft. A nice rare steak, perhaps, with a dollop of pâté fois gras covered in bacon? I'm weak right now.
I’m getting weak. I went out to dinner last night, and there was a “bacon wrapped veal and mushroom meatloaf.” I almost didn’t’ bother to look at the rest of the menu.

In my experience with the Amish, I haven't noticed any Amish jackasses. OTOH, my experience amounts to watching the movie "Witness". I guess I could check their website.

I am afraid that direct inquiry will not provide the data I need. I need to devise better tactics.
Are there Amish jackasses?
Dude, totally. Didn't you see Witness?

There was some show on UPN a while back which lead me to believe that yes, there are.
