Boss says employees who agree with Trump's rhetoric should resign [GrubHub]
Fox News ^ | November 10, 2016 | Bryan Llenas

If you voted for Donald Trump, you may not feel welcomed at Grubhub.

The CEO of Grubhub, an online food delivery service, sent a company wide email Wednesday suggesting employees who agree with President-elect Donald Trump’s behaviors and his campaign rhetoric should resign.

“If you do not agree with this statement then please reply to this email with your resignation because you have no place here,” wrote Matt Maloney, Co-Founder of Grubhub. “We do not tolerate hateful attitudes on our team."

Wow, a guy who pays his staff minimum wage wants to push them around for their beliefs?

I dunno. There were some MDs who after 2008 said they were going to fire half of their staffs because Obama would destroy healthcare. Nothing much came of it.

This is liberal tolerance.

They frame any opposing view as hateful so they can then not have to be tolerant of it.

Askmthem if people can have valid reasons for different views than they do, or not.

Ask them whether people can hold the same view on something, for diferent reasons, some valid reasons, and maybe some not so good reasons. Can people come to the same conclusions for different reasons, some reasons beng better than others?

Then ask them to explain why they assume you having an opposing views to them is because you are hateful and have invalid reasons for yur views. That actually says a lot about them.

Matt Mahoney is full of baloney. What a naive, impressionable fool. His business will likely go down the drawn with the other sludge. The man upstairs voted for Trump.

Boss says employees who agree with Trump's rhetoric should resign

And people who voted for Trump should never be Grubhub customers? If that's what the CEO wants!

Years ago, Dennis Miller suggested, if he had a business, checking out the parking lot to see who was sporting candidate bumper stickers whose policies wouldn't be good for business, and putting them on notice that if there's a down turn due to such policies, they were going to be the first to be laid off.

Maloney is blind to who his desirable client base really is.

I'll bet the violent crime against delivery people in Trump-voting areas is miniscule compared to HRC-voting areas.

I'm wondering if this is legal? I do know that if a conservative CEO suggested firing anyone who voted for Hillary then that person and their company would be destroyed in the media and there would certainly be investigations by the justice dept and the AG.

So WTF is this?

My mother was over here for dinner (shepherd’s Pie) when Fox Business commented about this, she thought it was the stupidest thing she’s ever heard...and she’s a democrat...

I don’t have or want facebook so I guess I’ll have to look up their email address and let them know I’m not now and never will be a customer. Haven’t been in Target since they opened up their bathrooms to whatever pervert wants to walk in...never went to Starbucks anyway, too expensive and the coffee tastes like it was filtered through Obama’s socks...

This is what I mean about the prejudiced, oppressive, violent and biased crazy leftists. They harm you or your property. They are communists.

The left and establishment GOPe has oppressed conservative constituencies freedom of speech with political correctness and dismissed issues and denigrated their values that are important to people on the right. The bias and misinformation has been a purposeful strategy to keep the right divided & quiet. They shut people or candidates down by calling the racists, homophobic or are against women. The crazies disregard facts.

Second the Media has supported this agenda. The media is biased, has collaborated with the far left candidates as well to keep Americans and the conservative message oppressed, quiet and separated from other messages. It has also practiced the politics of personal destruction to eliminate candidates, while their candidates are equally if not more corrupt. But the media gives little broadcast time for democrat reports of wrong doing.

Now you have some people that are truly upset at Trump’s winning the election because they foolishly believed all the propaganda, evil campaign tricks the left has promoted through collaboration with the media. Expecting Hillary to win.

Conservative constituencies don’t watch the main stream media. Do not believe or trust them.

But the left’s constituencies have not. Thus their overwhelming and misplaced inane emotionalism. They believed their side’s own propaganda to affect the election.

POLLS: If they want truth in the polls, Media & the crazy left must return to respecting people’s opinions or else folks will give them the answers that they believe the leftist media wants to hear. You can not vilify & oppress people then expect them to answer your surveys honestly. Are you that stupid, that you do not get that?

That is why the media & pollsters got it so wrong. The don’t believe in free speech or thought. And do not respect the rule of law.

What they did was eventually make most staff part time - much to the detriment of Health Care in this country. I’ve been experiencing this horror with my parents, the last couple years. I could practically kill somebody, but all the problems are not really the fault of the staff people, it is the system.
