The Entitled Zone

Imagine, if you will, a world in which you are fired by your employer for refusing to do the job you were hired to do…

Michael Lopez, who works for Universal Music Group, was evidently so distraught after SCOTUS sent abortion decisions back to the states, that – well here, you can read it for yourselves…

Like many millennials, this fella thinks that the sun comes up just to hear him crow in front of a self-styled straw man.

“Yours in fury?”  The “flood of anti-queer, anti-trans legislation?”  Good Lord, you don’t have to make sh*t up, if you’re that distraught, take a #PDO, but if you show up to work, then work.  Given UMG’s response, it’s a possibility that this wasn’t the only time he struggled with productivity, and bless his heart, who can blame him with all those emotions and all…

You can read some of the responses at the article in the NY Post, but this one stood out:

“Yeah this is pretty pathetic…You’re a grown man pretending to have ‘grief’ so unbelievably unbearable over something that will never affect you in any way that you can’t perform a simple task at work.”

Absolutely spot on, and we can trace this entire bag of BS back to the pervasive “everyone gets a trophy” tripe, and it’s not limited to sports or entertainment. Bet you know someone at work right now, who has gotten far beyond the normal assistance that no one else did, to hit that quota, but I digress…

Regardless, this mindset has never been focused on “equal rights,” rather “special rights,” be it burning down cities with impunity because something didn’t go your way, or refusing to work, even though everyone else around you put on their big-boy pants and lived to fight another day.

Grow up.
