And you'd think maybe it is because they had a team of PR people drafting perfect responses somewhere but....... nope.

From the linked article:

Fair point.

I know it's gotta be hard for it to come out that your husband's a monster (not that she couldn't have known), and I know some PR/lawyer wrote this, but still:

Hahahaha. That would be hilarious, but no, that is not the law. ;)

I was so irrationally annoyed about this earlier today. I don't even know why. I just love the book so much I'm like nooooooooo don't describe it inaccurately?!?!

Actually, most supervisors (including me!) recognize that a little chit chat, and treating people generally as "humans" in the work place goes a long way toward productivity. Yes, I need to bill hours, and yes, my time is valuable. But I still talk to my assistant about her son's baseball games because she is a person…

Still, here's hoping some of that rhythm rubbed off on Taylor.

The book isn't about a a story about a Nigerian couple's emigration to the U.S. It's about a single woman's journey, dotted by several relationships. It also deals with her college boyfriend's emigration to the UK, briefly, and her ultimate return to Nigeria where they resume their relationship. But they aren't a…

Your second comment to me disappeared for unknown reasons but: yeah, IMO, that's fairly unusual. Not to say it doesn't happen, but I've rarely heard men referred to as secretaries. I'm a lawyer and it is very ingrained in my community that we have legal assistants, not secretaries.

It has nothing to do with the tasks required of the job. Secretary had become an unnecessarily gendered term, and most people have moved to assistant because because it is a gender neutral term. It's not something I go around correcting a lot of people on, but I usually expect women on a so-called feminist website to…

I WILL BE THERE SHORTLY.

#notallwomenintheoffice I prefer fruit desserts thank you very much. :)

You literally suggested that women in the workplace are co-dependent over-sharers who apparently need validation from you. You, apparently, are an enigma among women. Also... secretaries? Really?

He actually defended Donald Sterling in his speech.

I've heard him speak, he was paid probably an obscene amount of money to come talk for a charity function for our local bar association. Let that digest.

It's kind of a worse case scenario. People tend to understand why it exists more in the civil context, but have a greater difficulty understanding why we "let people off" after a certain number of years for crimes. But if you think about it more abstractly it makes sense. For example, we know for a fact that eye…

Oh yeah for sure. For all the same reasons as criminal cases, as well. People forget facts, evidence is hard to come by, you shouldn't have to live your life wondering if your landlord is going to sue you for messing up the dishwasher, etc.

Yes, if her ultimately goal is to present evidence of her rape in a legal setting, she'll certain have the opportunity to do so here, if it makes it to trial...
