Goodyear gets "woke"

[cvgunman]

In response, I went out and slashed 4 tires (my neighbors...j/k). Was turned off their tires many years ago.

Goodyear to workers: You can promote Black Lives Matter - Not Blue Lives Matter or All Lives Matter

Goodyear is more than happy to sell their tires to police departments across the country, but when it comes to the workplace, Blue Lives do not matter. Black LIves Matter however? Absolutely.

Nothing surprises me these days.

The Goodyear RS-A2's that came factory on my car are the worst tire I've ever driven on.

First crappy tires, now crappy virtue signaling.

I can’t be any less of a customer than I already am...

I just hope in light of this, police departments push back and make sure their vehicles are riding on anything BUT Goodyear.

I have had good service and performance from Eagles.

I will be sending an email to their HQ.

I’m curious the full context of the training material presented. Cherry-picking one slide is cheap.

Of the twelve tires in this household, there’s five factory Goodyear’s. I’m not dropping $1500 to replace them, especially since there’s plenty of tread and warranty left on them.

 

[deemus]

In most instances I would agree. But it seems pretty cut and dry on that one.

"BLM good"

"Blue Lives Matter bad"

 

[toddnjoyce]

Might be, but shit like this pisses me off. Somebody snaps a pic of slide in a deck and pushes it to the internet to get a reaction. Hell it may be a ‘made for TV’ slide

In my day job as an HR guy, that slide would never see the light of day. Too much risk as you’ve just adopted or modified the existing a dress code, and open EEs up to disciplinary action or termination for wearing anything other than what’s under the ‘acceptable’ column.

It seems almost too far to be true.

Most companies would jist stick to a strict uniform dress code.

However, if it is real/ accurate then they jad to really try hard to be this stupid.

It does seem stupid. But look around at how many organizations are doing similar things right now. Common sense is not the norm at the moment.

In the current social environment this is very believable.

It will be very interesting to see the position of these "woke" corporate Ad staffers that "think" this stuff up if Tump's victory is a massive, over-whelming landslide. Yes... interesting indeed!

 

[cvgunman]

In wake of what Red Bull did a few weeks back, this is believable. I'm sure the execs at Goodyear are mulling over how to react to this. Will follow this along and see how it ends.

Doesn’t appear to be corporate approved slide.

Doesn’t appear to be corporate approved slide.

So it was from a consultant's presentation, whom they hired to teach diversity?

Huh, they had a different tune when asked yesterday. The statement says “racial injustice” is fine, “political statements” are not :

Hasn't changed my opinion of Goodyear. There tires have sucked for years.
