Were you ever able to get it back? I'd stalk them right back if they took my pet, break in and steal it back, if the cops wouldn't do anything. (which I can't imagine them doing).

Girl you have no idea. The United States is essentially a very large gulag. The unions in this country have been systematically attacked and gutted. And here you see the result.

I just can't even...

At least the company went to bat against her. Usually management sees the abuse happening and just sort of sits on their hands. That's always been my experience anyway...

Not cowardly at all! Call it self preservation! I can't do it either. Let's just say I left my last job after a trip to the hospital and leave it at that :(

I've had good bosses, but I feel like for every good boss there are 10 sociopath bosses. I'm sorry you had that experience, and I'm sorry that workers in this country feel so powerless that they endure this heinous abuse because they think they'll lose their job if they speak up. The failure to protect basic human…

That man needs to go to prison. And the writer doesn't address what the diners did, I mean if your waitress is stumbling toward you with fucking blood and human tissue coming out of her, do you just take your fucking pot pie and leave a 15% tip and be on with the rest of your day????? I'd have fucking called 9-1-1 !!

I think you're right. Likewise, I think for some reason, being an asshole is also mistaken for initiative and smarts in this country.

Here's a question.

Way to go Anna.

Yup. If this woman is plus-sized anything, we're all in trouble. I don't care if you call her a plus sized swashbuckler, skallywag or circus performer. You tack "plus sized" on to a picture of a woman it's gonna affect all women.

No, my reasoning is general assumption, not semantics. Saying "plus sized model" is not the same as "plus sized woman" when there's a picture of a very normal-looking woman, and assuming women in the general public don't react on a visceral level because "We said plus sized MODEL not woman" is the definition of…

Uh... sorry but sounds like some bullshit semantics to me. The model is a woman, right? Model = woman. Model =/= anything in the world. So calling her a "plus-sized model" is going to be read as "plus-sized woman." As it should. Because the general public doesn't know or give a shat about what the modeling industry…

If this woman is considered plus-sized then I fear for all women.

I know! Whhhyyyyyyyy do people do this? I didn't even know Vanity Fair was still in print! LOL. It's like when the Catholic Church tells Catholics to boycott a movie, so everyone and their dog goes to see it.

????

err... only if you're a clean shot!

That's what they want!!! The passive aggressive posts are HELLA attention-seeking.

"I never realized that my husband looks like a pink slug. But he's MY pink slug! ALL MINE!"

I got it, I got it. Lemme do it!
