@FedExHelp Hey Diana - I've not yet heard back from your team since Friday, any chance you'll respond to my message? The Memphis hub won't provide me any updates on my critical document that's now a week and a half late.

[Athena Diaconis @athenadiaco]

.@UPS have you seen what's going on with @FedEx in Memphis (and across the country)? Sounds like they need a logistics expert to help them get out of the bind they're in...

[Athena Diaconis @athenadiaco]

@HrznsRsrrctd This gives me some hope for my package! Glad it’s on it’s way finally.

[Athena Diaconis @athenadiaco]

@FedExHelp Hey Diana - I did DM @FedExHelp and never heard back

[Athena Diaconis @athenadiaco]

@HrznsRsrrctd @mesmith27 @UPS @FedEx @FedExHelp Yep, won’t be using them again anytime soon. Have been shocked at their customer service practices

@CallieSimon @Bachman761 @FedEx @CallieSimon What's the support group? Would love to talk to others who are stuck and see if together, we can do something about it.

[Athena Diaconis @athenadiaco]

YES! Taking all the good news I can get tonight😍

[Sarah McBride @SarahEMcBride]

I hope tonight shows an LGBTQ kid that our democracy is big enough for them, too.

2.2 million were modeled to die if we did absolutely nothing. That's not the baseline of success.

Jargon isn't a sign of expertise but a signal of insecurity.

9 *new* studies show that when people lack status, they use unnecessarily technical language to “look smart”. When they have status, they're prioritize communicating clearly. Via @AdamMGrant

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

Pence demanding that Harris answer *his* own personal questions when he won’t even answer the moderator’s is gross, and exemplary of the gender dynamics so many women have to deal with at work.

[Athena Diaconis @athenadiaco]

Yes and....it’s in women’s, non-binary, LGBTQ, and BIPOC folx faces everyday

[Chris Hayes @chrislhayes]

The gendered dynamics of interruption and the power to interrupt is always so in your face in these settings. My god.

[Dan Rather @DanRather]

I don’t think VP Pence’s mansplaining and over-talking is doing a lot to narrow the gender gap, unless it is also turning off more men as well.
