Summary
Walmart fired Dani Davis, a 6’4" cisgender woman, after a man who mistook her for transgender verbally threatened her in a women’s restroom at a Florida store.
Davis, visibly shaken, reported the March 14 incident to her immediate supervisor but was fired for not informing salaried management, allegedly creating a “security risk.”
Davis called the firing discriminatory. After viral backlash, Walmart offered to reinstate her with back pay.
Davis, a longtime employee, is uncertain about returning, citing fears of a hostile work environment.
Go investigate and get back to us then. I personally am content with middle aged white Karen/Kalvin in HR fires woman for feeling shame rather than immediately reporting the assault.
corporate finds out and says “now listen we want hr to be inhumane, but you can’t be so inhumane you make news no matter what legal memo you read” and rehires the woman who was assaulted.
Nobody else was punished because the only reason corporate reversed the action was media attention, and the media doesn’t care if some random “I only have enough hands to cover my own ass, I don’t have a spare helping hand” hr person got fired because even if they did we all know that type of hr person is a dime a dozen.

Says the guy insinuating context to justify this attack, and accusing the woman attacked of lying, despite the fact that she was fired for not reporting the attack to a manager quickly enough?
At this point, you’re just embarrassing yourself. Lemmy is still too small for everyone here not to see through this weak ass bait.
The 4 day old article about a Facebook post is the only bait around. I’ll wait for the whole story if there ever is one.
