The turnaround is giving me whiplash.
There's no begrudging following of the rules, it's wholeheartedly embracing the new regime.
When it is easy everyone thinks they are Oskar Schindler but when it is hard most people are Hugo Boss.
The quote from the email isn't her words. They were given to her (and all agency heads) to send out to their workforce to implement the EO. It should not be taken as "embracing the new regime".
So... "she's just following orders"?
She sent the email. They're her words now.
They need to give all interviews in with an Inspector Clouseau accent to let us know they are under duress like the US pilot who was put on TV during the first gulf war.
I was told to change gender to sex on the apps I develop. I'm pushing to have it removed all together because it's a field that has no relevance and the order is fucking dumb. My niece is trans saying they don't exist doesn't make them not exist.
This is just another version of pulling the ladder up behind them, no?
DEI is largely about raising the profiles of minority workers in roles and positions that were both vital to mission success and underpaid/underappreciate-for-promotion relative to the whiter career roles.
Petro's following in the grand tradition of Boomer senior leaders by pulling the ladder up behind her now that she's at the top.
You beat me by a minute with that thought! 😆
