Displaced persons camp

[Guest]

I cant believe this term is being used. How is "refugee" non PC? Do you really think it makes all of those people in the camps feel a lot better about their situation? This crap has sunk to a new low. But hey,if it works for flight attendants-cough*stewardess*cough and sanitation engineers-cough*janitors*cough it must be good for these people.

It is getting ridiculous. When I worked at Sainsbury's, and I was put out to collect trollies (best job in the store) we weren't called "trolley lads", we were "car park marshals". We laughed so hard when management told us that job title that they tried to withdraw it from use.

Because most refugees in recent times were third world nationals. Since the tsunami a lot these what ever you want to call them come western countries on holiday to the far east, and do not want that monicker.

I've been displaced the last 22 years. Like the good doctor, it was of my own choosing.

-isnt every camp a displaced persons camp?

[shelbyGT]

unless it's a mobile home park, then your home is always displaced.

Hello,

Hence the term - MOBILE

The only people who wouldnt fit this definition would be counselors and directors but then again very few people live at camp all year.we might have to narrow this more to "caretaker".
