Nah, you will just blend in with the crowd of members what already done that.

All you get is a hero cookie, and a no medal.

CEO Sundar Pichai sent a note to employees about the matter on Monday, saying the staffer violated the company’s code of conduct.

The post went over “the line by advancing harmful gender stereotypes in our workplace," Pichai said. “To suggest a group of our colleagues have traits that make them less biologically suited to that work is offensive and not OK,” he added.

Yeah, the truth is harmful to their feelings. They ban the truth from being spoken. It's not a stereotype, it's a biological fact. But these are people that think Male and Female are just the ways you feel, and not based upon your DNA.

Three women go down to Mexico one night to celebrate college graduation. They get drunk and wake up in jail, only to find that they are to be executed in the morning – though none of them can remember what they did the night before.
The first one, a redhead, is strapped in the electric chair and is asked if she has any last words. She says, “I just graduated from Trinity Bible College and believe in the almighty power of God to intervene on the behalf of the innocent.”
They throw the switch and nothing happens. The executioners all immediately fall to the floor on their knees, beg for forgiveness, and release her.
The second one, a brunette, is strapped in and gives her last words. “I just graduated from the Harvard School of Law and I believe in the power of justice to intervene on the part of the innocent.
They throw the switch and again, nothing happens. Again they all immediately fall to their knees, beg for forgiveness and release her.
The last one, a blonde, is strapped in and says, “Well, I’m from the University of Texas and just graduated with a degree in Electrical Engineering, and I’ll tell ya right now, ya’ll ain’t gonna electrocute nobody if you don’t plug this thing in.

If you can articulate your viewpoint and back it up with facts, I'd appreciate it, even if I disagree. Might make you some enemies, but at least you'll know who they are.... Things won't change if everyone keeps saying how great everyone is doing....
I'm just making up a scenario to match the Google situation. I don't have any beef with WAGUNS.

Hobby Lobby never fired anyone for supporting abortion, or any of their political beliefs.

Google DID FIRE a good employee SPECIFICALLY FOR their political beliefs.



See how that works? Hypothetical compared to actual.

blah blah blah. :ROFLMAO:


Really disappointed at this response from Duke.

When he gets in the fray, his points are usually well-reasoned, and well-presented.

Also, to imply that Hobby Lobby has near the influence of Google or the other companies mentioned, is laughable.

How much influence does Hobby Lobby have....zero.

How much influence does Hobby Lobby have on the Internet......also zero.

Just a counterpoint. I know WAGU isn't on your shit list. Just saying thay reasonable and constructive input on an issue that impacts livelihood and work environment shouldn't be met with hostility. This guy did his research and quoted statistics, and actually agreed with the end goal, but disagreed with the implementation.

Firing or having someone banned for wanting to improve a process.. Is.. Well.. Sounds like a shitty manager who doesn't want to change because he implemented the policy...

I like that this is blowing up in Googles face. There are tons of Google employees coming out of the closet and shaming google for their actions.

This guy at google has the right idea though: https://www.reddit.com/r/The_Donald/com ... _lying_to/

And yesterday and today at the office, I saw people who I KNOW agreed with James -- seriously, I have it in writing, these are my friends -- tell their coworkers what a shame it was that people shared "sexist" thoughts like those, and how they "just wanted a diverse work environment."

They are lying with a grimace and nobody outside our chats knows. They blend right in.

And I don't fault them for it. They just want to get paid. They just want to be able to do their jobs without being shamed, fired, and publicly eviscerated in the media.
