Ugh, that idiotic jump to racism really watered down what was a great post otherwise. She started the spreadsheet AND had a meeting with her manager about it. Of course her PBs are going to be more closely scrutinized than random person X. She pissed off her manager, it's that simple.
Then she went full on asshole and hinted that he should name himself. For what? To prove that a white guy indeed does work at Google who has a manager that approved bonuses?
If you swing a bat at a hornets nest and you get stung more than someone observing from 50 yards away, do you instantly assume it's because the hornets are racist/sexist?
You're getting what you want out of that thread and not what was written:
She had a good friend who helped her create the spreadsheet and his PBs weren't rejected. As in, they both shared the same responsibilities for getting this thing going, but he was being treated differently. She doesn't name him out of respect for his privacy, but later in that thread he names himself.
He was brought in as a point of reference for her claim she was being treated differently.
I don't really understand what happened in the end, but my best guess is that she was finally fired for telling off her manager and calling him/her a racist.
> Shit WILL hit the fan if you tell a racist (a well documented racist) to go fuck themselves though. In defense of the racist, obvi.
No, she created the spreadsheet, she said it herself. She is responsible for sharing it. Other people might have helped after that, but it just doesn't matter. It especially doesn't matter if they were white. They didn't create it.
