Sexual Harassment/Carvana

 While I was at a big box store, I heard an assistant manager address a CS person as "Babe." I asked her to make sure. She said he did and often did.  I will call the company and complain. She said she tried to ignore it. I hope he loses his job! All women suffer when one man is allowed to sexually harass one woman. And, this was a black woman. He is a white man, her superior! 

I wonder how many people have witnessed her humiliation and harassment. How many young girls have seen and heard his actions and will accept it as normal. I have a BS in Social and Behavioral Science, so I can talk the talk in defense of people, minorities especially. 

Yes, I do defend men. 

Tomorrow, I will make the call to corporate. 

Mower came by today to look at the Rogue to buy. I had promised it to cleaner. They are friends. So, more car buyers than $500 cars.

Mower said he was waiting for me to get tag and title so he could buy Impala. I started thinking that a car does not need a tag to sell. So, told him I am not going to buy tag, just get a title. He did not try to persuade me. 

Carvana is so easy to use, so I am shopping for cars there. Has anyone ever bought a car from Carvana?

  1. I've not bought a car from Carvana. Sounds like you said, more buyers than cars.

    1. Belinda,
      I have seen the ads, but I know of no one who has bought from Carvana. However, there is a tower near here.

  2. My daughter-in-law bought thru Carvana. She can’t say enough good things about that transaction. Super happy.

      Thanks for that comment! I now have one feedback that is good, none are bad.

  3. Also, it is amazing how many men don’t think language like that is inappropriate. They think it is flattering. I am 74 ears old and my pet peave is people (usually women) that refer to me as “baby”. I think it is a southern thing. A waitress once referred to me and my husband as “baby” several times while serving us. I finally told her that I knew she did not mean anything bad, but it is very condescending to refer to older people like that. I think it had just become part of her language and she never considered how the recipient feels.

    1. Pudge,
      When I told a woman my name and said it was insulting to call me 'sweetie' she said she was doing as her mother taught her to be polite. I told her she is not a child and neither am I, so let's stick with Linda or Ma'am. She still wanted to argue that it was okay in the South. I was done and very begrudgingly ordered a meal! Not anymore, never was.

  4. Go get him, Linda. He knows better than that!

      Just as soon as I put a period on this sentence.

Okay, hoping the annoyances have gone away.
