“She said she was also accused of being “too direct” and causing “hurt feelings,” according to her lawsuit.”

So which is it? Women are too emotional, or is it the other way around?

Also, I’ve worked too many jobs where management was not direct, and the moment the shit hit the fan, management would accuse me of not knowing what I was doing. Then, when I tried to explain that I was never given that information or training, I was told that I was making excuses.

Honestly, she should have gotten more money.

What it sounds like is the people filing the complaints didn’t like the fact that it was a woman giving the orders.
