I am not a big fan of the whole cancel culture thing, but this girl appears nuts.  Her former employer is probably thinking they dodged a bullet.

Completely agree on this one. She seems unhinged, and a place like Deloitte could probably see a lawsuit coming from a million miles away for her behavior. 

 

One of the things I am very grateful for is being able to work for my dad in the summers. He started me out doing file clerk stuff when I was 16, and almost every summer from that age through the summer after I graduated from college I worked for him. Eventually he got me doing client intake. I learned how to behave in an office -- how to dress, how to answer a phone professionally, how to speak with clients and colleagues, and the importance of being a team player who is willing to do menial tasks in order to learn how to do more complex ones that require discernment, tact and discretion. I understand that not every person is going to have this kind of opportunity, but it is something that jobs corps should focus on. It doesn't need to take a long time, a couple of weeks could be enough. When I got to my first "real" job I was ready to go on day one, and some of the new graduates who joined with me were not. I had to show one how to address and put a stamp on a letter!!!!! I couldn't even believe that -- I was like, have you NEVER sent a piece of mail? No, anything like that mom took care of for me. What?

Oh yes, I'll have some of that please! It will console me for not going to Harvard, and then not getting to brag about going to Harvard for the rest of my life.

And being fired by Deloitte.

Never been fired from a job.

 

Except for the wife job, forgot about that one.

I thought you resigned?

No, I was told that I had essentially started working for another employer while still working for my then-current employer, thus violating the terms of my employment contract not to work for a competitor during the term of my employment. He was wrong about it, but you know, California is an at-will state so......

 

But I got compensated for my termination, so it all worked out in the end. 👸

I was commenting on the marriage.

I was too!

 

I guess you could call it constructive resignation. I kind of noped out by the end of it by being more emotionally attached to someone else than him. He walked out on me and said we were over. It was the opportunity I was waiting for -- I wasn't really brave enough to end it myself, because it felt like failing at something I had tried really, really hard to make work for so long, even though it was a horrible situation. I don't like losing! (Recovering Type A personality.) He tried to reconcile at one point before the dissolution was final and I nearly gave in, but I realized we were completely dunzo and that I was far better off being NOT back with him. When everything is uncertain and up in the air, sometimes the comfort of something that is known is attractive, even when you know objectively it's really not good for you.

 

Back to topic!

If that is how she is on a public platform, imagine what she is like to work with.

The original video:

Another one going after white people in a racist tirade:

Thankfully she posted her overwhelmingly white Harvard class photo where you can visibly see how much "black lives" matter, go Harvard! #BlackLivesMatter!!

 

Maybe the woke people in this photo with their BLM related hashtags on social media can explain why they haven't given their spot to a black person. 🤔

 

Takes no effort whatsoever to see through this trash.

So, I watched the two videos that were posted above. The thing that amazes me is the fact that she blames Trump for the words that come out of her mouth. I am in my mid 30’s and have to say that I am disgusted by the lack of responsibility of some of my generation and younger. Trump didn’t force those words out of her mouth. 
 

On a side note, being a mental health professional here in Florida, if law enforcement got a hold of that video that mentioned her wanting to hurt others she would be investigated or sent to a crisis unit pronto. 
 

Apparently going to an Ivy league school didn’t teach her the ever so necessary skill of reacting versus responding. Clearly She reacted without thinking. Also, if she used critical thinking she would understand the words that came out of her mouth was what got her fired. I know I would not want to hire or retain a person who appears to be as unstable as her.

A fancy sheepskin is one thing, but you never really know about a new hire until you get him/her out in the field.
