I think we just have to agree to disagree on this point. I have nothing against somebody stating their position with emotion, but this was vulgar and designed to do nothing but escalate the situation. She didn't use profanity while making a great argument, she used it to directly insult her previous employer. So things didn't work out for her at Yahoo, and she got fired on the phone - yeah, it sucks. It doesn't give her the right to act like a spoiled brat in public. I'd expect better from my children then how this woman acts in public. She should be embarrassed. If she really wanted to get back at them there was much better and more professional ways to go about it. I stand by my reasoning that this kind of vulgarity used in public should be shameful, and I'm no prude. |

It didn't need to, that right is innate. As is your right to voice your disapproval.
She should be embarrassed.
By whose standard? Yours? Why should she care what you (or I, or pg, or Larry Ellison, or the wino standing at the corner of 3rd and Main) thinks about what should embarrass her? Or maybe she should worry about some abstract notion like "society" or (even worse) "polite society?" Feh...
I think we just have to agree to disagree on this point.
Fair enough. Reasonable people disagree all the time.
Anyway, I'll freely admit that I'm biased towards people who do things that go "against the grain" and break the "rules". If throwing a little profanity around and escalating a situation is their thing, I support it (to a point at least). I mean, I think there's a lot to be said for the mindset of "if I think this guy is being a doofus, I'm going to say he's a doofus, and damn political correctness."
