People and their freakin dogs. Completely lose all their sense when it comes to their ‘cute buddy’ that in the end, basically satisfies some primal urge to control other living things. A true master and slave relationship.

This must be the 1,000th time in my years here.
At least it’s another Gator.

Now no dog, no job. Looks too old to go back to Mom.
Will she learn anything form this experience?

No, they don’t. They cannot blackmail you into doing things they are not paying you to do. There are also State laws that forbids employers from taking actions against you for things you do off work. It’s part of that pesky US Constitution, 13th amendment about slavery. Just because they pay you to do one thing doesn’t mean they own you and can control every aspect of your life.

This is how the whole “Karen” thing started.

Maybe we can get “Karens’ Arrested, fired, fined, silenced!”

I say we shave their heads a la Nazi collaborators in France circa 1945.

I have no idea if she is a racist or not. I do know that she used racism as a tool to manipulate and control. She’s a nasty, nasty piece of work. I have no doubt that she would use anything, no matter how dirty, to manipulate and control. He also used racism to manipulate.

She’s a manipulative, race card using, self-absorbed New York City leftist. A real nasty piece of work.

He’s also a manipulative, race card using, self-absorbed New York City leftist.

Let them sort out their own troubles.

One day investigation?

I am a Registered Investment Advisor and use Franklin Templeton Investments. This company is involved in Ukraine and has been cited for defrauding shareholders in the past by allowing late trades via international markets.

If anyone gets more details, let me know.

Granted, this woman may be a total Cnut, Karen, whatever..but to be fired for RACISM? Really?

People are getting unhinged...Karen wakes up, takes her dog for a walk in the park..loses her job, her dog, her reputation...Bird watcher pushes her buttons instead of minding his own business..cocker spaniels are not aggressive & was probably having a ball off the leash.. recording someone is ball busting & Karen cracked...I don’t see any winners here...Both are likely Nitwit Biden voters..

Per a post up thread, she’s on administrative leave pending an investigation, not fired.

She has not been blackmailed.

Even Miss Cooper had stated that her action were wrong.

She is done.

She is just another immigrant that failed at the American Dream.

I’m with you, ...sounds like two a$$holes met in the woods and one lost her job.

Bet millions of monopoly money that both are far left extremists.

Nothing you said changes the fact that the man threatened her. I completely agree that she should have had the dog on a leash but the bigger point here is that there’s usually another side to the story and it’s often worth waiting for.

I know with me and I think with most men a certain trigger goes off when you see a woman threatened by a man no matter what kind of a jerk she is.

Why didn’t she just put the dog on the leash? She was being cruel and chocking the dog instead of just putting the dog on a leash.

If someone tried that with me and my dog, a cop and an ambulance would have been required.

She was a total Karen, but the guy trying to bait the dog was acting creepy as hell.

It’s ZERO business of her employer, that is for damn sure.

It was a joke that it seems nobody got.

A play on “black birdwatcher to a blackbird watcher”.

She sure seemed terrified of being recorded.

That said, he had every right to tell her to put a damn leash on. I have two dogs, love em, but dog owners that don’t leash up or pick up are abhorrent.
