This is NOT how to keep your job at a Federal contractor company:
From www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/woman-flips-off-donald-trump-fired_us_59fe0ab4e4b0c9652fffa484:
“Asked what she was thinking when she saw Trump’s motorcade roll up next to her, Briskman said it was a gut reaction to flip him off.
.He was passing by and my blood just started to boil,. she said. .I.m thinking, DACA recipients are getting kicked out. He pulled ads for open enrollment in Obamacare. Only one-third of Puerto Rico has power. I’m thinking, he’s at the damn golf course again..
.I flipped off the motorcade a number of times,. she added.
Briskman, a Democrat, said she plans to look for a new job with an advocacy group that she believes in, like Planned Parenthood or PETA.
Despite getting fired, she said she has no regrets about the attention her public show of displeasure with Trump received. In fact, she said she’s happy to be an image of protest that resonates with many Americans. .In some ways, I’m doing better than ever,. she said. .I.m angry about where our country is right now. I am appalled. This was an opportunity for me to say something..
Social Justice Warriors don’t care about productivity. They don’t care about causing trouble for their employers. It’s all about the narrative, the feelz and the impulsive displays of hate against those they disapprove of.
On the bright side, I want to credit her company, Akima LLC, for making some good calls here. As Mizz Briskman complained in the article, emphasis mine:
“.They said, .We’re separating from you,.. said Briskman. .Basically, you cannot have “lewd” or “obscene” things in your social media. So they were calling flipping him off “obscene.” …
Virginia is an employment-at-will state, meaning employers can fire people anytime and for any reason. But Briskman said what’s been particularly infuriating is that a male colleague kept his job after recently posting lewd comments on his Facebook page that featured Akima LLC as his cover photo. She said this colleague was reprimanded for calling someone .a fucking Libtard asshole. on Facebook, but was allowed to delete the post and keep his job.”
What do you want to bet that the male colleague got to keep his job because he apologized and cooperated instead of doubling down? Or does that count as male privilege?
