Interesting read.
The same concept could apply to anyone, who is trying to push some political or social agenda.
Maybe some fields are more prone to this than others? I’ve worked in the accounting and financial area for decades, with many women colleagues over the years. I never had any problems working for or with any of them. Maybe the discipline of an area like finance, precludes pushing the agenda????
I don't know about that. Remember Andrea Dworkin? Remember the SJW prof who needed "some muscle" to stifle free speech on campus? I've seen some homely feminists.
I liked the assessment of the modern HR department - very accurate!
What a pathetic “vanity”.
So you shouldn’t hire a competent woman if she’s attractive because PC HR is out of control?
By that standard, you shouldn’t hire black blacks, Hispanic Hispanics, or gay gays either.
Why don’t you go crawl back into whatever hole you slithered your way out of?
This is almost the exact (though, of course, unspoken) policy my former employer followed. We never had any feminist political outbursts, and men and women got along well at our office.
Woe onto him that has a female boss. I’ve cut job interviews short when I found out the engineering manager was a female. Been down that road a couple of times. Never again.
"If you want to be happy for the rest of your life, never make a pretty woman your wife."
That notion could be applied just as well to the workplace: If you want to be happy for the rest of your life, never let a pretty woman into your life.
In my long life, I've found beautiful women to be spoiled, accustomed to having their way, vindictive, and easily offended if things don't go exactly to their liking.
I know I'm right about beautiful women because I've been married to one for the last forty-eight years.
The exit money will include the $40 million of the parachute plus all of Megyn’s money that will be won in the law suit
I was working for a Fortune 70 when the Clarence Thomas thing blew up. Immediately, we were all sent to sexual harassment re-education camp. Then Bill Clinton got elected and the re-education camp was scrapped.
So now another sexual harassment narrative spins up just in time for Bill Clinton’s wife to get nominated
It has been my experience that some supervisor will want to get rid of a middle-manager, so he will find the biggest train wreck in the office and (presumably) offer to not fire her if she will take down the middle manager, after which he fires her anyway.
While this may or may not be what happened here, my guess is there is a puppet master somewhere. Whether or not that is Megyn? I have my doubts, she makes her living in a fish bowl and can’t seem to restrain herself from doing things like interviewing Malik Shabazz. She’s more of your train wreck type I think.
I'd be curious to see how she would be to work for.
Don’t get married except to an exceptional woman, and for the same reason.
Otherwise, you will have a spiritual and financial vampire in your midst. And you will be blinded to this fact by the emotional bond that is maintained through frequent sexual intercourse.
Absolute garbage. I hope you’re not in charge of hiring anyone.
I gotta go "yes and no" on this article.
What's the difference between Megan and Sarah?
It's not the skirt, it's the soul.
It's not the hair, it's the heart.
You silly person, you should hire on competence. If you hire an incompetent person, male or female, they are going to try to make up the difference in unexpected and ultimately unpleasant ways.
Trump does well enough hiring pretty women, because he hires competent women.
I remember the HR ‘lessons’ we had to endure in management.
Best part of retirement is NEVER having to hold my tongue again.
What used to be proerly labeled Personnel Dept. was morpher into a vaginocracy known as Human Resources. The gynocrats who populate this littel fiefdom revel in their petty torments to an otherwise productive workforce. They generate sensitivity training, sexual harassment policies, and performance review criteria at variance with the real world.
An example of the latter, is a career management program for workers in their late 50’s. The guy is 58 years old looking to ride out the tail end of his career, and retire in 6-7 years. They are typically not interested in advancing their career to any real extent. They want to do their job, and be left alone. Yet I was forced to give that someone a poor performance review because they had not set appropriate goals for their career path. He did fine work, was never a problem, and was dependable and capable. After what the gynocrats in the vaginocracy did to him, he became a toxic employee. He was angry (rightly so) and simply didn’t care anymore. After I left that company for my own sanity, he was terminated on perfomance, and had a hard time finding a job until I had a position open for him and brought him on-board at my new job because of his age.
