I had a co-worker who was fired during Women’s History month. Our company asked everyone to submit one thing they’d do this year to support women. He wrote something along the lines of ‘continuing to treat men and women equally’ and got fired for it. I’ll pass. I need to eat no matter how much I support the cause.
This was 10 years ago. I’m pretty sure they have to tell us this per title ix. The dean of students read that as well as many other things straight of a piece of paper to an auditorium full of freshmen.
In college freshman orientation they told the women to always say yes if they want to say no because men are violent and will hurt you if you say no. Fuck that. It leads to a confusion of consent and the blame always falls on the guy
Wait to you get to the real world. My company hires 100+ engineers every year. Less than 10 female engineers out of 100 every year. ‘Equity’ demands that half promotions are given to women. So if you’re a female your guaranteed to be promoted overtime while the guys are fighting for scraps.
This doesn’t surprise me at all. I’m in tech. Women represent about 10% of non-management technical roles. The company had a “goal” (quota by another name) of having half of all management be women. Well one, if you believe the sexes are equal management gender split should be equal to the percent of non-management gender split. Well what do you know once they blew past 50% to almost 90% because once they were in those positions they only hired other women into management.
I would not engage with either one of them in any shape or form. Get your friends and other witnesses on the record that you did not do this -> start building your alibi.
