I wrote that before I saw this. Perhaps getting him out ASAP might be the best for all parties. The last thing we need is a disruptive Bryant or him doing something stupid again. http://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/21122232/martavis-bryant-pittsburgh-steelers-wants-source-affirms

Most complete performance of the year I thought. Offence moved the ball with ease, though struggled in the red zone again. BB looked very good. Defense was elite in the second half. DeCastro and Shazier are having all-pro years atm. A bit worried we are going to run Bell into the ground but I...

That may be a small price to pay for giving others a voice.

I just draw your attention to 'all understand there is no insult,' in Banter 1. Not 'Hastings Gull deems there is no insult.'

He was sharing the story because he lost a good member of staff. I still fail to see what good an arbitrary judgement of her sensitivity is to anyone, she's still left. By saying what you said you evidenced that you had totally missed the point of that story being shared. And also 'Took it the...

Could not agree more with this. I cannot fathom how a man in Sampson’s position would even think of such things, never mind say them, and, while his actions are inexcusable, he shouldn’t be hung out to dry by an institution which in its clumsy, insensitive attempts to cover up the scandal has...

Looking forward to this immensely.

I wouldn't be if my waiver request was higher!

I'm sure our solutions would differ but can I just say that your assessment of the problem is absolutely spot on and well put.

Multiple Births Death of parent(s) Loss of job I don't necessarily disagree but some people need help through no fault of their own. We're not clairvoyant.

I'm mystified why anyone would drop Aaron Rodgers in a dynasty league when they have a reserve Kicker, Defensive Lineman, Linebacker and Defensive Back on their roster! Even if you were determined to get rid of him, he still had decent trade value.

Ah, shit, you're right...

My point was that McT, shared his story for a reason and your FIRST instinct is to doubt the legitimacy of what this person has said. McT's story and your response is a really interesting insight for me. The fact that you are now bringing in Rotherham and ridiculous comparisons with completely...

People can do things with no malice as their intent that adversely impact others. Not intending malice isn't a barrier to considering the consequences of our actions or words.

Which is why a period of self reflection is a far more positive response than seeking to blame the employee.

Isn't the point that good managers adapt their approach according to the individuals they have? Sent from my SM-G920F using Tapatalk

You can't disapprove of giving offence if your first instinct (as in McTavish's example) is to blame the person with the complaint. I've actually read the Jay report and the police failings were more a case of not listening to the victims based on preconceptions regarding their backgrounds...

I'm not really sure what good being in the right according to some arbitrary scale of acceptable sensitivity is in this situation.... This is what makes me laugh when people have a go at PC. PC at its core is trying not to cause offence to people so when I hear people having a go at it it seems...

Aluko didn't 'complain to the FA.' She was asked to contribute to an supposedly confidential, FA initiated, 'culture review.' As it was confidential she was honest about her experiences with the manager. A week later she was dropped.

But that's kind of the point isn't it? Your equivalency with what your mate said taken in isolation isn't helpful. This is about context, personality, relationship and precedent as much as some hard and fast rule that proves definitely what was said was or wasn't racist.
