Hello, Mohinder, thank you for making the time to come see metoday. No, please don’t think of this as a reprimand. We can’t, ofcourse, tell you what to eat – no one is telling you that, obviouslythat would be an overreach. However, in your bio in the org chat,you describe yourself as a "pescetarian" – again, obviously, thediet you choose is up to you. That’s a personal choice. But we areasking you – the company is asking you – if you wouldn’t mindremoving that word from your description.No, no one has complained yet, but we are concerned that it mightbe upsetting to some of our new hires. In the employee code ofconduct, which you signed after you onboarded – oops, when youjoined the company, see, anyone can make a mistake – it statesthat employees should not use any polarizing or divisive language,including language that may have offensive racial, sexual, ableist,or humanist associations. We appreciate your cooperation.Mr. Ward, thank you for coming in. As we indicated toyou in our email, we have received a number ofdistressing calls from some of our customers about youralleged posts on social media. In particular, one callerindicated some very troubling tweets that you seem tohave made in which you refer to “fish people”, and referto “the innsmouth lean.” We were also sent severalscreenshots in which you refer to “bait”, which is aknown human-supremacist dog whistle according theSPLC and the ADL. Moreover, they show you respondingto the accounts of several prominent Thalassians withsingle word replies such as “sushi”, “sashimi”, “ceviche”,and on one occasion, “fish sauce”. I shouldn’t have toexplain that this behavior is unacceptable.MAN'S WORLD 106
