      Exactly.

      It makes perfect sense to leave it off, the absence doesn’t prove she didn’t work there.

      But, as you may have heard:

      The absence of evidence isn’t evidence of absense

      It doesn’t make sense to act like she proved she worked there. We simply don’t know either way.

      I really don’t get what’s hard to understand here:

      It’s just something incredibly easy to prove, so I don’t see the point in saying she did if she didn’t.

          If you haven’t seen it yet, check out Black Jesus.

          I don’t know why, but it took me forever to watch it. It’s made by the guy who made Boondocks and the guy who made trailer park boys. And it’s just a perfect mashup of the two
