[–] Lojcs@lemm.ee 14 points 2 years ago (3 children) Sounds like her immediate manager really hated her. Repeatedly ignored her requests, told her to figure things out on her own then reported her to upper management for doing what he told her to do. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 6 child comments replies: [+] Puzzle_Sluts_4Ever@lemmy.world 21 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 child) [removed by mod] permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] rockSlayer@lemmy.world 1 point 2 years ago This is why I'm so glad that there are open union campaigns occurring at my tech company. It has promoted a speak out culture where people say something when they see a problem. Management won't listen to us, but at least we're there for each other and empathize even if we don't sympathize. Coworkers have told me that the support that we provide makes them feel validated, even if the law does not agree with our assertions. permalink fedilink source parent [–] agent_flounder@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago Her manager was a piece of shit who didn't know how to treat other people properly and who had zero respect for her and (reading between the lines) didn't have the slightest grasp of misogyny in the workplace (or actively perpetuated it) and had no idea how to manage anyone effectively. They should've been fired the second or third time they utterly failed her. But when upper management are also douchebags they see nothing wrong and even encourage that bullshit. Work for a decent place for a few years and you see the stark contrast very clearly... permalink fedilink source parent [–] pascal@lemm.ee 2 points 2 years ago I don't know why, but somehow I can really picture James saying to Madison "calm your tits!" with his annoying smirk. permalink fedilink source parent
