If they work for her, she's not wrong.

If someone that works for me forgets a date I dont spend minutes berating them, and my occupation is notorious for petty tyrants. It is actually a trope.

Damn, that's full ghetto !

I feel like there are brief moments where it seems like she is grappling at proper grammar with brief glimpses of professional language but then hood rat wins out.

Absolutely nothing surprising about that audio given her reputation. Hope she loses the mayoral race badly and fades into oblivion.

To your point, there is nothing more frustrating than an subordinates incompetence.

And as always, this will get zero attention. And as always, if this had been some white congressman, it would be round the clock OMG the bullying, lack-of-safe-space, racist, sexist, white demon man.
All staff members referenced would go on to write books about their "journey", and make six figures on the lib school lecture circuit about courage and awareness stuff.

Such horsesh***.

Am I the only person who don't think this is that big of a deal?

People with power and authority tend to be a-holes. I'm sure SJL is probably a bigger a-hole than most, however.

The white congressmen just pat them on the head and they walk away and then pay them to provide leaked footage

They do it just as bad but will hit you in the pocketbooks much harder with a smile on their faces - some didn't get Rich overnight by being nice

Those guys knew what'll happen when they signed on for SJL - all those folks are different when the cameras go away

Oh yeah, no problem at all with this double-standard being our reality. Just wink and laugh at the ones pointing it out.

Currently on the news and politics pages of the Houston Chronicle app. I've seen it here on TexAgs. I've seen it on Reddit. It's getting attention

Not surprising. SheJack has been consistently rated as one of the worst, most abusive members to work for in Congress for her entire career. She's a garbage human being.

Nothing more than a race-baiting, camera-hogging, corrupt grifter.

There's a reason she can't keep any staff longer than 6 months.

Seems this would be the kind of news/revelation that full time city employees would want to know when they go to the polls.

It's been pretty well publicized for a long time. Her constituents don't care.

Me too. She gets a solid grade for that berating. It was to the point, didn't mince words, used appropriate cussing and degrading insults.

Her opponent should somehow race card this thing -- "This is how SJL treats her BLACK employees and what she thinks about the BLACKS on her staff generally."

I was working out at my neighborhood workout center this morning and they have a number of TVs playing on silent with CC turned on.

I NEVER watch the crazy ladies on The View, but the TV right in front of me had it on.

I noticed the View ladies were denying that was Sheila Jackson Lees voice.

just wow.

KHOU just reported there was a fight at her campaign office with a guy named Womack and someone else.

Guess she has a culture of being hood

Where are these ratings? Would be awesome if they did them quarterly like a Football poll. .
