Hey, she made $800K a year, and was just scratching out a living. Her husband makes $30 mil a years as a sports agent, so they could pay the mortgage. Gretchen was Miss America right in the middle of the womens lib era, she was always looking for sexual harassment of any kind. She was a bird dog for the movement. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

Well, I don't want to defend her against the average waitress who has to put up with the same things, but I'm sure she sees some of her coworkers who didn't have to put up with it at all and still make mega-salaries, still working there. Just because he fancied her instead, she paid for it by eventually losing her job. And perhaps if they let her continue on in some other capacity she would have kept silent. If she didn't have any money, she'd basically be unemployable at her age being dismissed from her job. Of course, I'm just speculating at this point. She may have made the whole thing up, for all I know. You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really? |

rxwine Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 188 Posts: 18633 | I wouldn't really make too much of who has spoken out or not. Just 'cause he may have hit on one or more women in the office, doesn't mean he hit on all of them. Sometimes you hear about things in an office environment, but sometimes you don't. You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really? |

Not exactly. Just saying that he and his supporters made sexual harassment at the highest level acceptable so this lawsuit has no merit either because of the precedent has been set. The President is a fink. |
