Can Ruin Your Career/Business in 5 Seconds, and it is Not Taught in Schools
- gmantastic 13y agoI agree that one should not use language likely to offend others on the grounds of sex, sexuality, gender identification, race, religion, physical appearance etc. I don't really like the tone of this article though - why must I know and repudiate a short and odd list of derogatory terms? And who decides what the "proper term" for a particular group is? Is each group uniform in their preference? Or is the author stereotyping people? Whilst this article might help raise awareness, there is no substitute for being a decent person, and thinking for yourself before opening your mouth.
- molecule 13y agoIANAL, but I imagine that a manager who tolerates such language or allows it to persist @ the workplace is liable for promoting a hostile work environment.
- abhijitm 13y agoI would recommend you to go through it.
- abhijitm 13y agoIt's a helpful article indeed.

- shiftpgdn 13y agoIs this supposed to be parody?
- ColinWright 13y agoYou can see it? Won't load for me. Or is that what you meant, that having a site that won't load will ruin your business.

- zxcdw 13y agoIt is laughable that matters like this get flagged to oblivion and disappear from the frontpage, especially considering how important they are in many ways. I wish I had more than one upvotes.
- richardofyork 13y agoOhh, so that is why sites disappear from the front page suddenly. Interesting. I agree with you.
- th0br0 13y agoI've got a good number of gay friends so: Queer isn't actually offensive today to "all" gays. There are popular gay/lesbian magazines that use that name in Germany, [1] and [2] Queen: don't forget drag queens which doesn't necessarily have a negative connotation [1] http://inqueery.de http://inqueery.de [2] http://queer.de http://queer.de
