John Carney considers a picture of a white female dressed in couture with the Statue of Liberty in the background an attack/disquisition about immigration?

Also impressive: that the apology was actually worse than the original statement (which was bad enough).

I can’t believe that he made an apology that was just as offensive as his initial email. I think that we just found Trump’s next Communications Director.

I’m mostly impressed that he managed to offend pretty much every single marginalized group: women, Jews, LGBTQ, etc. While it isn’t here, I’m sure dude has said a few things about POC, too.

Also, according to Reuters, he lied on his LinkedIn page.

Panel 1:

I bet that guy was a peach to work with, even before all this. I’m sure when his female coworkers read his memo they thought, “Of course it’s written by that *******.”

Not sure if this means anything, but there’s a post on Medium by a former Google senior engineer and he makes it sound like this guy was not a senior employee. Not sure how senior you’d have to be to be involved in hiring and peer review.

I don’t get this - also related - the computer your company bought for you to work on is not yours. Tread carefully

In HR/Finance for a nonprofit, and what happened to us is the hiring managers were generally offering male candidates $1k-3k more than the low of the salary range, while we were offering women the low, or a $500-1,000 bump. Then, the men were more likely to negotiate, and were sometimes rewarded another bump.

This is pretty much why you don’t write this shit and post it in the workplace. Outside work and on your own time, whatever. You’re shitty, but it’s unlikely anyone will ever find it. Now, depending on what this guy did or was involved in at work Google could be opened to a host of lawsuits just like this one. I found…

HR people are quite susceptible to being mesmerized by adams apples/thick body hair.

To all the commenters over on giz: see this is why you can’t be writing shit like this at work. Whether you agree with what he said or not, it’s a liability for the company.

I want someone in HR to explain to me why you dole out more money to men just because they ask for it. WHY? Do they cast a spell on you or what?

“Sixty people is a really small sample size.”

My general rule is that if a couple is always posting public statements about how much they love each other and how happy they are that they are just hiding some dark shit from us and probably from themselves as well.

So in my “real life” I have seen a lot of couples separate, then get back together, then fight publicly, then get back together, then fight privately... ad nauseum. Not that it means much, but they all have posted lots of happy looking Instagram photos, etc., whenever they’re having a Together Moment.*

It seems weird to me that someone who is a member of the monarchy would not understand how monarchies work.

So to summarize, ICE is actually ruining the promising futures of young men who came to this country as children, worked hard, and thrived. Meanwhile, the DOJ is busy investigating the tragic plight of the white kids ‘discriminated’ against in college admissions. And over at the Dept of Ed, DeVos is clutching her…
