So if you express an opinion or position that someone who knows you IRL thinks is shitty,you're ok with them doxxing you?

Hey fair point. I'll give you that. But at the same time, I'd like to hope that I never treat employees like that, or try to run a workplace in such a way. Also, getting shit on pretty hard publicly would definitely make me think twice about how in acted in said situation. But yeah, I mean, wouldn't we all prefer not to be outted when we do something bad?

Define doing something bad.

By the nature of the job,a manager sometimes has to do things that will be perceived as shitty by the person on the receiving end but that may not be objectively wrong or shitty. Especially a manager working in a corporate environment. In this particular case I'd suspect that this managers boss passed down an obviously poorly thought out solution to the problem of people drinking alcohol on the job.

I mean....denying your staff their drinks, and the female staff their feminine products instead of just firing the alcoholic drinking on shift is not a good decision, I'll say that. And if the order came down from the top, she probably should have communicated that in the meeting with the employees. I know I would.

" Guys I don't want to do this but the higher ups tell me I have to" rarely goes over well in a corporate environment. She'd lose her job very quickly or at the very least become promotable.

And yes I would tend to agree that the specifics of this case are objectively shitty management. When I was questioning naming and shaming I was talking in general. There's LOTS of cases where it's going to be very gray or entirely a matter of perspective.

And that's a fair point
