It's like the criminals have taken over the city.

And the PC police/WOKE people will defend them at all costs.

I haven't read all the comments hear but I would bet anything that the publisher wanted out of this contract and is using the tweet as an excuse.

Yeah, it's ridiculous. I'm always picking up other people's trash and throwing it away.

You can do whatever you want so long as you mind your business and don't use your personal social media account to defame others. That is change for the better.

Normal rules don't apply to black employees.

see now you're thinking - so she f*cked up her platform as an ally to POC. she can re-brand as school marm to the masses. if you're going to be a becky, be a f*cking becky!
Exactly she could tweet pics of mail carriers briefly parking in front of hydrants and tweet pics of hundreds of employees outside dozens of offices downtown smoking within 100 feet of entrances. She could single handedly get thousands of people reprimanded or potentially get them fired.
JFC- that 20 mins ISN’T HER MEAL BREAK. Thats not what the union rep says either. The union rep’s job is to make the worker look like that victim NO MATTER WHAT. Don’t get me wrong, I’m sure metro workers are pushing breaks, but there is no way that’s the meal break.

What’s any of that got to do with the Mad Tweeter’s new career?
Oh sorry - making dinner and responding to different post. I’m sure all of the very high class, white collar workers of DCUM can figure it out.
