So, Goodyear is run 100% by the HR Department. Very good. I thought they made and sold tires. Silly me.

In 2020 it’s rare that any company is NOT run by it’s HR department.

Sad but true. Millenial women from Leftist indoctrination universities imbed themselves in HR and Marketing, where they proceed to lead the CEO around by the nose.

“So, Goodyear is run 100% by the HR Department.”

And plants by the union.

It’s not just an HR thing. All major organizations are now run by cowards. Here’s just one example. A high school near me had an Indian wearing a full headdress as the school symbol. It was a very noble representation.

Well, one person complained about that. Just one person! And she wasn’t even a Native American. She was just a liberal busybody.

All hell broke loose. The school’s symbol was immediately changed. New letterheads were ordered, and new school shirts were ordered. And the big Indian picture on the gym wall was painted over.

That one liberal busybody should have been told to just shut up and go away. But everyone in administration was too cowardly to do that. They all folded.

I see this in many large companies I deal with. The “real” managers deal with day-to-day stuff like manufacturing, sales, logistics. HR, and particularly the affirmative action and social policy stuff, is left in the hands of (increasingly) low IQ non-business social-workers types

The fact that Goodyear addressed this issue immediately at least tells me that upper management was probably surprised by what the SJWs in the HR department were doing. Now they are huddling to figure out the quietest way out of this mess.

We have a firm that we work with, in Portland, OR. The line of business is financial services, insurance, employee benefits, etc.

Until about the last 2 months.

Now it seems that it is more important to be WOKE and support the revolution for BLM, Antifa, and all the rest, at whatever cost. Suddenly this messaging has taken precedence over anything to help the customers. It is just disgusting. I believe it is due to having a minority, “woke” CEO for the time being, who has a higher loyalty to his RACE, than to the thousands of customers and salespeople that have collectively meant excellence for the firm.... until lately. Then the board of directors is apparently too scared to NOT seem sympathetic, so they are just looking the other way while this goes on.
