Whatever she was making… Yeah, no. She wasn’t earning it and it wasn’t a job they needed to staff ie it was a complete waste of govt money.
Yeah my character evaluation of who she is, is that she couldn’t have been a very productive employee such that she is… an influencer / model also. And not that it was the matter of these things competing for her attention. IMHO women who think they have model good looks are borderline impossible for a normal person to interact with. To say, you can have a very pretty woman in class / in the office. It aint that she’s pretty that’s a problem, and if it is it aint her problem of course. She can be model pretty. It’s if they think they have model good looks and are into model culture. That’s a problem, if that’s their personality. I’d guess it is for this gal. I’d guess she’s skated a bit her whole life because she’s pretty.
I’ll truth bomb also, "I think" being highly educated Afghan or Pakistani or Iranian in this country, you’re about as disadvantaged as if you were Chinese. Which is to say, you’re not, and "I think" you’re not really credible doing that job as her, as a pretty central asian woman. I briefly checked out her LI. Blake / Hamline. I’m kinda surprised she choose Hamline having gone to Blake, because I take it the right characterization of Hamline is its a value proposition as a private school. BUT. It does have a distinct and spicy cultural / political vibe these days, if the last year there explains anything.
Anywho, to say also… IDK how you are this person who is all sass and noise and not of disadvantaged bg and the people in the dept at the U hire you for this job… except that there’s the pretty and glamorous shiny object thing going on.
Public salary data is somewhat easily available. It should be for her, but she started this job merely last October, so there isn’t a current PDF with her in it on anyone’s website. I’ll take a wild ass guess on her salary: $135k. I’ll say it would be very easy for me to be wrong there $40k in either direction. Sometimes quasi govt jobs don’t pay as well as you think, sometimes they are cray cray.
I’m surprised she didn’t have more job protections at the U. Maybe she was in a probation period. You conjure up this scenario, maybe you foresee a hesitancy for that type org to fire this type person over ‘this issue’ where there’s a very pc prism through which to view the pro-Palestine cause. Meh, I’m not surprised that her department head fired her given the institutional temperamental prerogatives you’d understand govern a place like that.
Oh yeah she’s a glam lsebian as a Muslim woman as well. This has not gone unobserved, the LGBTQs in this country having politically aligned with retrograde Islam in the middle east. That dissonance is a hellova thing.
I’ll tell ya another gd thing, that I sussed out myself in life as a matter of personal presentation and temperamental governance. I learned it as a student of history, the news, and by navigating gun collecting. A person’s got no reason to have swastikas in their life. Don’t have them around, don’t make analyses that draws analogies to them. They’re bad.
