Not real sure why this Karen deserved to be fired. Well, let me put it another way.
What in this dog-walking episode made her unfit for her job, etc.?
“What in this dog-walking episode made her unfit for her job, etc.?”
Better to ask “what about being known to employ someone most of NYC thought of as a racist was good for her company’s PR?”
As per http://www.kqed.org/arts/13900749/central-park-karen-amy-cooper-remains-unrepentant-about-central-park-karen-ing , she’s a financial advisor. Now her company has an employee mishandling her struggling dog while obviously stressed out telling a bird-watcher to stop recording her. Her racial bias is also obvious as she repeatedly tells the police that an African-American male is threatening her.
Would you want to keep this train-wreck of an employee when the reputation of your company is at stake?
As to the bird-watcher, he’s apparently made other dog-walkers feel threatened but not enough to call the police. In this part of the park, dogs are supposed to be leashed as per the sign. In the video, the leash is not connected to her dog’s collar.
“Not real sure why this Karen deserved to be fired.”
She worked for Franklin Templeton which is an investment bank that requires honesty of their employees. She proved herself a liar and in doing so she lost her job.
Now it would be nice to see law enforcement start firing every liar who has a badge.
