EXCLUSIVE: 'She treated us like we were nothing.' Ellen DeGeneres ran household like boot camp, tormenting workers over misplaced salt shakers, 'taking pleasure' in firings and 'laying traps' like matchsticks to test employees, ex staffer claims

"Many lesbians like to have a mannish appearance. It is common in the lesbian subculture."

Depends on whether they're the "husband" or the "wife".

Here's Madcow and it's "wife".

Oh no, say it ain’t so! Surely lesbians are all gentle souls, spouting cheerful poetry and sweet words, ever smiling, and eager to set out tea and fresh cookies for visitors.

“serving food in the wrong bowl, leaving the salt shaker in the wrong place or failing to ensure DeGeneres’ latte was frothed the way she liked it.”

Those are failings and chastisement is appropriate.

Ellen may not realize it, but unless she had all her employees on video 24/7 and they knew it, she has probably unknowingly ingested all manner of “special” ingredients in her food.

man, she should have skipped the ball game with W Bush!
They are really piling on- I have no doubt this is true. Look how nice Rosie O Donut was, until we found out she wasn’t.
Meh. Portia de Rossi must be waiting for an “accident” to happen....

She was a struggling mediocre comic for years and then somehow hits the jackpot. She should be eternally grateful rather than annoyingly grating.

“Well, quit then. No one forces you to work for Ellen.”

Why are you giving rotten employers a pass? Rotten employers should be called out.

“Makes you wonder why Portia has stayed.”

Money and security.

“ Workers were hit with an itemized daily list of trifling gripes from serving food in the wrong bowl, leaving the salt shaker in the wrong place or failing to ensure DeGeneres’ latte was frothed the way she liked it.”

Ok, I’m not an Ellen fan, but to this I say, so what. She hires people to set her table and froth her latte. They should do it the way she wants it done. That’s how it works when you hire someone. You pay, you say!

My wife, her Mom and I have had long discussions about a niece/grand daughter that is a lesbian. She is a beautiful girl, touch on the big side but not obese. She had been married to men twice, divorced and has a young son from the last marriage and then brings in her husband a butch lesbian at Christmas. You can clearly tell the new husband has female characteristics and could probably be a half way decent looking woman if she tried, but she doesn’t and goes for the man look. We all three so bad want to ask what the deal is, why she tries to look manish and yet is in a lesbian marriage. Even in those weird whatever the hell they are relationships the masculine/feminine presents itself.

I realize this is a gossip tabloid, but probably has an element of truth.
That pic of “him” in the article shows a vacant, disturbed person with empty eyes, IMO.
I’ve watched his show in small snippets leading into the local news, and noticed this is a sadistic person who takes pleasure in scaring people and having games that involve people getting smeared with goo or slime, while Mr. Ellen laughs & enjoys it.

And I can’t help but think you need to see a therapist.

I know lots of people fornicating, which is a perversion, that are just fine.

Or do you pick and choose your perversions?

"One day the staff found around eight of them [matchsticks], all in weird places. The rest of the day became a race to find them all before she got home and fired someone."

If a person is truly responsible for cleaning in the places where the matchsticks were found, then why would that person have to race to find them all? This description suggests that the employee decided that simply removing the matchsticks would satisfy the boss.

I was taught to observe the Golden Rule while on the job: "He who has the gold makes the rules".

f Mariah only had recorded ONE single...

Reminds me of an editorial cartoon last Christmas:

Woman is telling a mechanic that her car keeps making an awful sound.

Mechanic asks "Did you try popping out the Mariah Carey Christmas CD?"

My father told me that if you have to tell people who you are, you are not that. Tough people don’t need to tell people they are tough, you just know it. In Ellen’s case, when you have to continually be reminded that she is nice, it’s highly likely she isn’t. Another example is when the media tried to sell Ryan as a conservative.

Same goes for people who constantly tell you how rich they are or what a genius they are.

Turned me off ever wanting another female supervisor.

Right, because all women or even just all women in power, are carbon copies of your b!tch of a supervisor. It's not like women are individuals or anything.

I wonder if she didn’t kiss BLM butt hard enough, is why this is all coming out now?
