This is not equality, it’s a clusterfuck. Two wrongs don’t make a right. In the end the bullies won.

- warmwaffles 14y agoI don't see it as that. There were better ways to handle the situation. She shouldn't have public shamed them without asking them to stop first.
- arrrg 14y agoProbably. Sadly, humans are not perfect. Making dumb jokes and posting a photo of those who made dumb jokes online? Dumb mistakes. Firing people, DDoS attacks, vile threats: Now that’s a shitty clusterfuck. The bullies have driven the conversation.
- warmwaffles 14y agoI think the firing was purely a business decision for both companies. Harboring stuff like this can go down hill fast. It's easier to just let them go and not have to deal with it.
- arrrg 14y agoAn immoral business decision, yes.
- warmwaffles 14y agoIt can be, but it could also be an excuse to get rid of a problem employee. SendGrid could have been waiting for her to slip to let her go.
- mhurron 14y agoNo, it's equality. Now whether or not you agree that an off-colour joke should get you fired, it did and it can. It did so and it can because it can bring very negative attention on your employer. Now, attempting a public shaming will also bring negative attention on your employer. That can get you fired.
- arrrg 14y agoIf our assumptions about the firing are correct, the employers made in my mind immoral decisions, caused by bullies.
