I think we should give her a raise.
Why would anyone post anything online under their actual identity?
Idiotic post. Double standard.
“Diversity training” Is Orwell newspeak, meaning they get to say anything they want about you and you have to shut up and take it.
Who ought to be shot are those scouring social, media looking for dirt on people.
Sounds like they should’ve been fired.
