Did you actually read the whole thing? There's no way you did if that's your takeaway.

Which is easy to do when it involves a 8,000 word piece that doesn't clearly point out what it's about within the first 1,000 words.
I've had so many ads/"post boosts" rejected because of the absolute dumbest reasons. Their goal is to appease the investors/big advertisers. I thought this was common knowledge.
Unless you have credit card info, social security numbers, etc. in your emails, nobody gives a shit about your Gmail account. Unless mom's pasta salad recipe is an ancient, family secret, consider your account hacker unworthy.
I'm still not finding the point of this article. Fuck Kevin Durant because he's turning himself/his image into a business...like ALL athletes? Or maybe it's "Fuck Kevin Durant, because I've never liked him for whatever reason, so this is the best I can come up with."
Yeah, Power & Light is the second best place to be other than the game itself. Absolute party yesterday, and this is coming from someone who generally despises P&L.
They have a history of questionable (at best) behavior. More accurately, it is immature and insensitive to whoever is being discussed. There is a lot of responsibility when having access to the airwaves and mass media, and they seem to ignore those responsibilities. To say they made a "few mistakes" is disingenuous.
Remember that time they were criticized for giving out all of the information of a teacher ACCUSED of sending nudes to a student? Also remember how no one else in the media reported the name because in journalism this thing called ethics prevents them from releasing such information without any charges filed? OH, and…
Admittedly, I'm a hater, but what a goddamn way to exit the field forever.
That's now how I read into it. I interpreted it as she doesn't have a choice personally. In other words, this is the only way to do what she feels right...or some shit.
They never said she wasn't. As you pointed out, "terminated" is an all-encompassing term. My point was purely hypothetical. My original point of her being unprofessional still stands.
I touched on that aspect in a reply to another comment. Some contracts will include a two week notice. If you sign a contract with such a clause, you are obligated to do so. This detail matters if you plan on collecting unemployment, considering gov't benefits is determined based on who was the one that officially…
You'll be amazed at how quickly people forget about stuff they saw on the Internet. One year from now (probably sooner) her name and face won't ring any bells.
I never said she wasn't awesome for sticking up for what she believes in, but there are better ways to do it, in my opinion.
In this hypothetical contract, yes. She can tell people she quit, but if she uses the company as a reference in the future, they can say she didn't quit and that she was fired. It's all word play with legally binding definitions vs the spirit of the "resignation."
She probably signed a contract requiring that she gives the company two weeks notice. If she just gets up and leaves, they can "terminate" her for either what she did or for breach of contract.
Your last point (time frame for that BAC) is valid. However, witnesses to the wreck can only prove she committed the crime of smashing into things, but that's about it without her BAC taken at the scene.
Your last point (time of response) is key.
I noticed that. If the police didn't stop her in the car, it would take the most incompetent lawyer to not get her off on that charge. Logically, she was definitely drinking and driving, but according to the letter of the law, the police had to bite the bullet on that one.
There was, of course, no "joke" in Gervais's original tweet, and he knows that.
