Sounds a lot like a Qanon meeting.
Guilty! Methinks the lady doth protest too much.
Sounds like cult indoctrination.
Hey, Spargifiore idiot: don’t you know how to say NO?
Reminds me of those old EST Seminars only with a heaping helping of abuse added.
General Cho woulda done it; no chicken he.
That’s going to be a big check they have to write.
“Spargifiore was made to strip down to her underwear in front of strangers and coworkers as part of what was billed as a trust-building exercise’”
If she was stupid enough to comply then she’s stupid enough to complain after the fact.
Some Karens In Human Resources are gonna lose their job over this.
Sounds exactly like a scene from the movie “Semi-Tough”, where they had the seminar for a thing called Beat, everyone was locked up for a weekend in a room, either you got it or you didn’t get it. Whatever IT was.
Sounds like a Koch company training /joke
In all seriousness, I have been training my kids to push back on this type of thing.
Though if I was in a seminar and someone told me to strip to my skivvies, I would not be the one traumatized.
If they really want to see my scars, enjoy
This is some crap seminar in California. I hope they get sued into oblivion.
The Panda may have to sell one of its spots to cover this one.
Sounds like the EST seminars of the 70’s.
These godless liberals are really a sorry lot.
And now they run the country.
How does one get forced to strip at a meeting?
I believe her. Some well known companies still do crazy stuff.
Article says she was “made to” or “forced to” do disrobe. Words have meaning, and those imply the employee had no choice in the matter. So what sort of force was used?
In any event, the idiots who ran this program deserve having to pay big damages, no matter how weak the “force”. What in heck were they thinking?
Did she have to apologize for being white? Kneel before anyone?
Something tells me that today a whole bunch of people would NEVER survive a ‘Crossing the Equator’ ceremony or a USN Chiefs initiation even as toned down (comparatively speaking) as they were during during my time— 50s/60s
Would probably sue if sent to look for a left handed monkey wrench, stand a mail buoy watch or fetch a gallon of relative bearing or even elbow grease and many of the other ‘things’ that were done to pass the time...
also, a snipe hunt would never happen, though I do remember ‘grunion hunting’ on the strand while at Imperial Beach CA....or submarine races.....
