She had interviewed and met both remotely and in person, this guy was merely an HR drone confirming her documentation. I was a little bent when she told me he had asked her to remove her blur filter “to have a look at her working environment, make sure it’s not cluttered” (something along those lines). No one else at this company requested such. Was he way out of line?

I should note, this is my PC in our living room and not where she will be working from. And this guy wants a look around our home?! Told my wife to bring this up once she’s settled in, ask HR if this is policy. She started today!

She thinks it’s a racism thing. I’m not so sure, but I don’t have any other explanation.

      that’s awesome! also a great way to detect and maybe even argue against bad faith arguments. you can tell people are arguing in bad faith when they’re not cooperating about what you’re telling them (pretending “black lives matter” implies “other lives don’t” is a clear example of a non-cooperative interpretation in order to portray it as a malicious sentiment).
