Was Cain terminated (fired) from the National Restaurant Association?

[Lakhota]

Did "he" sign a confidentiality agreement? I ask these questions in context of all the alleged sexual harassment charges against him.

I'm sure they just BEGGED Cain to stay. They didn't mind paying out all that money.

That's also my thinking...

Let me ask you a question. If you were on the Board of an organization that was forced to pay 2 women a total of $80,000 based on two separate complaints of sexual harassment against the CEO, would you fire that CEO, or would you keep him on knowing that it could happen again and cost you even MORE money?

first, they weren't forced, they chose to pay. they could have litigated if they wished.

it would depend on whether the ceo was making me money, and whether his alleged behavior was going to cost me more money than i was making.

*shrug*

got any more softballs?

I follow your logic, but I would add the following: The NRA is a political lobby, and as such is likely more sensitive to such things as sexual harassment from a PR standpoint.

Word to the wise there Lakhota...never neg rep someone who has exponentially more rep than you do.

I assume your annoying for making annoying threads.
What new and interesting point did you have that is more important than the 1000 other Cain is lying threads?

executives rarely get "fired"........


they are "encouraged" to "seek opportunities elsewhere" or "spend more time with the family".........

I agree, but it all amounts to the same thing...

The NRA isn't a business. It's a lobbying firm which collects money from various restaurant chains for the purpose of pursuing the interests of of restaurant owners when it comes to legislation in Congress. An example of that would be preventing minimum wage laws from applying to waiters and waitresses.

You can argue that the NRA 'chose' to pay. However, they certainly didn't choose to be in a position where they faced either paying a settlement quietly, or taking the chance at a much larger court-ordered payout along with all the accompanying bad publicity which would have displeased all those corporate doners and publicly embarrassed them.

Not much of a choice, is it? What would you have done?

Yeah, they were forced to (quietly) choose the lesser of two evils

Most people no longer get fired. Their position is eliminated.
Legally there is a very big difference....in practice they are one in the same.
Have done it myself numerous times.

The NRA is a trade association. Look it up.

ALL trade associations lobby.

"Terminated"? A Freudian slip perhaps? The fact of the matter is that most career democrat politicians don't have the real world skills to work in Cain"s pizza restaurants much less run a business. The sad truth is that most politicians never met a payroll or made a buck that wasn't confiscated from taxpayers. The Treasury secretary is an admitted tax cheat. What does that tell you about the administration?
