I guarantee you they have some blanket policy with enough ambiguity that covers something about company image blah blah. Most businesses do.

Again, I am not defending Honda here but I am just saying she had to have known this was a possibility. Based on her statements on the matter she certainly did know and did it…

I fail to see how pointing out how the world is and not the way we want it to be is victim blaming. She has stated she knew it was a risk and did it anyway. That is not a victim, she is only playing the part of a victim.

I never said there wasn’t a double standard, and there definitely is one at this organization. I’ve already state the men who were making comments and/or harassing her should have been fired. The dude who also makes videos shouldn’t be fired and neither should the woman in the article.

Some have noted she was…

It does matter because we don’t live in an ideal world and we never will. I get it, the “what was she thinking” take isn’t popular....but this isn’t rape and the reality is plenty of people get fired for a lot less nowadays. Lets remember she works in a field that’s traditionally a strong bastion for misogyny. This is…

At least on person understands where I’m coming from.

I do not disagree with you.

I do not disagree with anything you said. However we live in a world where teachers get fired for having bikini pictures on Instagram. It’s fucked up and wrong, but all I’m saying is she should have seen this coming. 

Luckily for her she probably has a good discrimination case. 

I have seen managers fire people because that person was making their favorite look bad. I left that company as soon as I could. 

Agreed. I do hope she gets a nice payday out of this.
1. They should have fired the turds watching porn at work. I have fired a direct report of my own for doing the same.
2. The male tech that’s also doing porn should have been fired if they fire her (but in an ideal world, neither are fired).

There are some comments…

I am pointing to the reality of the situation. She is not a civil rights martyr and her actions + her getting fired is not going to change a damn thing. She can do what she damn well wants and the police aren’t going to come drag her out of her bedroom, but we all know most men are pigs and can’t handle the sight of a…

Do I think this is fair? No.
Do I think this is right? No.

For whatever reason my wife LOVES these things. Been on the lookout for one but would rather get the SRT-6 form of this weirdo. If I’m going to have a weirdo bastard Mercedes in my driveway, may as well be the more entertaining version.

Well Westbrook and Schilling are the two most garbage writers left here. Tracy and Torch are the only reasons I even read anything here anymore. If (when??) they go Jalopnik gets removed from my bookmarks.

When they have a 4 cylinder pushing that much power it kinda kills your argument man. These days a turbo V6 should be pushing 400 reliably, especially in a performance trimmed car.

Nope. This is for the supposed performance spec, 300 is what you find on a Camry. No thanks.

“I’m excited for a new legacy of sporty Acuras, and this engine is expected to make over 300 horsepower, which is probably enough!”

No

Erik: 0% loans are bad despite the fact they are free money!

Also Erik: Buy into a shitty cruise line company with a history of worker rights abuses and tax evasion! They surely won’t go bankrupt anytime soon!

Brands already compete against each other for pricing. You are a fool if you think the manufacturers will lower the price point from existing MSRPs. That’s just extra profit for them.

All that will really mean is people will pay more for cars in general. No haggle pricing means the seller (in this case, direct from manufacturer) sets the price and you take it or leave it. 

Oh, look. A shitty New Yorker having stupid opinions about things that he has no actual knowledge about. What a surprise.
