Whatever ends up happening, huge thanks to @dame_lillard from all of us in #RipCity for the buzzer-beating playoff thrills & much more on the court — as well as all you did off the court to make our community a better place. Your space in the heart of Blazers fans is secure.
@XylaFoxlin Looks like a fun trip! If you ever make it back up to Oregon KMMV is across the "street" (highway) from the amazing @EvergreenMuseum - home of the Spruce Goose.
@StephOnStrings @24caratviola A few years ago a racist comment was made as the punch line of a “joke” in a board meeting. Those who recognized that it was inappropriate were literally shocked speechless… myself included. I spent the rest of the meeting wondering if I had heard it correctly.
@24caratviola @StephOnStrings “Not in their DNA”… dude. I don’t see myself every attending one of his performances or supporting an organization that chooses to book him. #stopasianhate
@archbyccb I can talk all day about privilege... I doubt they’d ok a blatant abuse of employee discount. Lots of legalese when you add family members... direct manager has to approve additions (admittedly I didn’t do family background checks and trusted my subordinates were truthful).
@archbyccb Do we really want the SEC stepping into the resale market? Who is the victim? Nike got $$ for their product... to be seen if they treat employee discount abuse as theft. Didn’t appear he was selling fakes. Unsavory 4 sure... the guy just happened to have a bankrolled hustle.
@archbyccb Interesting. Sneaker trade isn’t regulated like securities. I doubt he had insider high heat launch information but probably had bots and early launch access via the Beaverton company store.
@archbyccb Will be curious to see what additional details are uncovered. Household members have access to the company store (physical & online). BUT purchasing for resale is a NKE policy violation. Surprised loss prevention didn’t flag likely 6-7 figure worth of discounted sales.
@archbyccb I’m almost never on Twitter man! Just realized I wasn’t following. Hope you and the family are doing well! I’ve been crazy busy w/ work+kiddo distance learning.
@nobleviola Sadly Multnomah Co is still in Phase1 and the Portland 5 closed... as I'm sure you know. Board meeting on the 9th so likely no new info until then. The office has been surveying patrons/subscribers so that feedback will also be considered/compiled before the 9th.
@24caratviola @joshweilerstein @ElenaUrioste Lame. Has the errata been shared publicly so that others who pony up $$ don’t have to do the same thing... at least until corrections have been made by the publisher?
