@schmangee I don’t think those people want your sympathy. People can state that something is stressful/uncomfortable without it being a competition. Anxiety at its core is illogical, so it’s pointless for anyone to try to judge whether someone else’s reason for stressing is “good enough”.
@AllisonLCarter I think this would fall under reasonable accommodations though. Yes, press availability is a job requirement, but there are ways to accommodate her disability: one-on-one media sessions, written statements, an intermediary speaker, etc. Just like accommodating physical issues.

If you think these were secretly undercover left wing protestors meant to make the president look bad... 🤦🏼♀️ you’re too far gone to bring back to reality. These are The Earth is Flat -quality conspiracy theories and there are Congresspeople RTing them. They should be expelled. 🤦🏼♀️
Some of you are really passionate about a team *name*. This is my opinion: no, that company who spent several years profiting from a campaign to keep the old logo should not suddenly get to pivot and design the new logo. 🙄
