35. Even Fosado felt that was an overreaction

Thu Oct 16, 2025, 05:37 PM

Oct 16

"I don't think it was like horrible or something that should get her fired. I feel bad for her," Fosado told the outlet. "We cannot be judged on one mistake and a lot of emotions were involved. It was just hurt feelings, nobody physically hurt anybody."

I don't know what was the right response, but perhaps she could have been counseled and put on probation. Her behavior was abhorrent and I'm not making excuses for her, but I agree the whole firing people over things done and said outside of work has gotten out of hand these days. Meanwhile, the public humiliation should really leave a stain on her.
