    Whoa…..look, or rather listen, to the hostile work environment in Ms Lee’s office. If I had talked like that to my techs I’d be out of a job real fast. But I’m sure Lee will tell you it was a mostly peaceful beat down.

    Rough language, lots of F bombs.

    Well you know the old saying, you can take the sweet old lady out the ghetto, but you can't take the ghetto out the sweet old lady ;)

    Granted, I have no room to preach, if the slang word for intercource was removed from my vocabulary I'd be fu#$ed ;(

    Wow. As an owner of a corporation, that's astoundingly incompetent leadership.

    These are the people elected to run our country? We HAVE to have better than this.

    I use the word all the time, but not towards anybody and certainly not in the demeaning vulger name calling she did. There is no excuse for that behavior. I don't care how important she thinks she is.

    Yeah, you can curse, but not at employees when you're angry. There are times when you can drop F bombs and get away with it, and there are times when the employee now has a hostile work environment lawsuit.

    There's massive risk in the public sector that just does not exist in the private sector. That's one major reason government positions are at a shortfall. The second biggest reason pertaining to US political entry is the high cost barrier. Something that didn't exist until the late 1800's and has persisted.

    The combination of these two factors is a major drain on the US Government.

    I get it, in my life, and working environment it was more of just fill word and had a different meaning from tone and attitude;)

    Hard hat, dirt/oil/steel/heavy equipment and grunt work. Them Boyz was gutter mouths and f#@k was hardly the worse thing muttered.

    What risk exists in the public sector?

    Public sector doesn't have to compete.

    Here’s an article about the berating of the staffer along with some other historical fun facts about this fine woman.

    It's his right to criticize the government.

    Since that's straightened out, anyone who would tolerate their employer treating them this way is a ****ing loser. There's no way my boss would do that without me telling him to go **** himself...lol.

    It's incredible, the bullshit that people put up with, nowadays.

    A presidential contender called half the country deplorable, and the current guy called half the country terrorists - but just the white half.

    She's been accused of mistreating her staffers for a long time. There's obviously something wrong with her. And it looks like one staffer had enough and is throwing her under the bus. She should be censured for this. I'm pretty sure she's escaped censure on a lot of her antics which is pretty crazy.

    She's a racist who effectively only hires black people and other people of color. The odds that the person who released this audio is black is exceptionally high, considering they're within her inner circle.

    This Clinton reject, REJECTED!

    BREAKING: Sheila Jackson Lee Loses Race for Houston Mayor. It Wasn't Even Close.

    Hillary Clinton, Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), and Rep. Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) all lined up behind her, and she got trounced by almost 30 points.

    [​IMG]

    She got her ass whupped like WY voters whupped ass on Liz Cheney.

    'the election was scheduled for Dec. 9, but she put out a video encouraging people to come out and vote on the wrong date-- Dec.7. Not only would that potentially confuse voters, but it shows what kind of a leader she would be for the city if she can't even get such a basic thing right on an ad that is presumably heavily vetted.' But she has the right gonad and melanin configuration!

    'Thoughts and prayers to Sheila Jackson Lee's staffers in this dark time.'

    Lol....she interfered with her own election which is a threat to democracy. Garland has a reputation for locking up people who do this.

    Didn't they prosecute someone for a Facebook post when they gave the wrong date for the election?

    What an absolute clown that woman is and how fortunate are the people of Dallas.
