Must not say women talk a lot

David Bonderman, an Uber board member and partner at private equity firm TPG, resigned from the board of the ride-hailing company after he made a disparaging remark about women at an Uber meeting on Tuesday.

Earlier in the day at an Uber staff meeting to discuss the company’s culture, Arianna Huffington, another board member, talked about how one woman on a board often leads to more women joining a board.

“Actually, what it shows is that it’s much more likely to be more talking,” Mr. Bonderman responded.

Attendees were aghast at the exchange, especially at a time when Uber has been trying to overcome a series of scandals over corporate misbehavior, including sexual harassment claims.

If anyone is whining around here, it is BoP - a sniveling, ignorant, piece of canine fecal matter.

He can think it as much as he likes, he can even say it in certain circles.
However, to say it in a meeting for the specific purpose of trying to show Uber in a pro-woman light is not a smart idea and likely to result in what followed.

BoP,

You keep saying that you voted for Trump as some sort of proof that you are a conservative. How does voting for a person with liberal views and beliefs like Trump help you prove that you are a conservative?

As for living in California, that makes perfect sense as you act and write like prototypical California liberal.

Maybe you should leave your mommy's basement and get out into the real world.
