I'm late to this story, but this is how I see it.
- Adria should never have done what she did. The best option would have been to turn around, ask the guys to politely stop. If they continued, she should have spoken with a con rep (like she did).
- I'm tired of people saying they're offended by things and not acting on it. Offence in itself is weak and means nothing to someone else. Saying "I'm offended" or "this offends me" while expecting people to stop what they're doing is self-centred and immature.
- Nobody should have gotten fired.
- pekk 14y agoIt is often not reasonable to ask people who feel intimidated or harassed to confront the people intimidating them publicly. She could have spoken to a con rep without making a public stink about it, though. She certainly did act on it. The firing is up to PlayHaven and SendGrid (and the corporate culture which they share)
- darxius 14y ago> It is often not reasonable to ask people who feel intimidated or harassed to confront the people intimidating them publicly. I generally agree, but what Adria did was public and did confront them -- albeit indirectly. I don't think she felt intimidated, I think she saw the situation as an opportunity. > The firing is up to PlayHaven and SendGrid (and the corporate culture which they share) Again, I agree. I just think three people getting fired over "big dongle" is fucking ridiculous.
