Right. I am totally on the side of the mistreated employees UNTIL they commit violent crimes. And even then, I might have been able to at least sympathize a tiny bit if she’d attacked her actual employers. It would still be an awful thing to do, but a tiny bit more understandable.

I worked briefly as a bank teller when I was in high school so I could afford college tuition, and some of the clientele treated me like absolute garbage, and it’s clear they often took out their personal frustrations on the staff of the bank.

You are not alone. I can’t quite say why this makes me uncomfortable, but it definitely does. Wishing you peace and health (and hot Earl Grey).

This article is incredibly unfair to the Krims. No, Yoselyn Ortega’s complaints weren’t legitamite. She made bad financial decisions; she sent her son to expensive private schools, she chose to sublet from a someone who kicked her out shortly after she moved in.

Who is proving they can’t read? You are little guy! Here, let me help. It didn’t go to criminal trial. The victim was being maligned and harassed to the point she didn’t want to testify. She filed a civil suit and Kobe paid, which was what he wanted to do to begin with. Because that’s what rich people do, throw money…

Kobe wasn’t found not guilty. He didnt have to face trial because he smeared the victim into submission. Try to keep up.
