This is the sad truth re:Cuomo

37. The sad truth about Cuomo is that he turns out to be an egotistical idiot.

There is NO EXCUSE for a man in the last 5 years, post Al Franken, post Harvey Weinstein, post Bill Cosby, and on and on and on, to think a young woman working for him is the appropriate target for sexual banter.

NONE.

Andrew Cuomo should have figured this out long ago. It doesn't matter what Trump got away with. That doesn't excuse Cuomo. Democrats actually stand for something, unlike the R's.

A long time ago, I was a new college grad working at a company where I had to do projects for multiple VP's. One of them was a sleaze, who couldn't resist saying gross things to me whenever I brought a report to his office. I'd begun to ask a male co-worker to deliver my work for me, just to avoid this guy. Then I got promoted, and I was working directly for the Exec. VP. Soon after I began, I had a chance to share with him my discomfort with The Sleazy Guy. He asked my permission to share this information with others.

Days later, an older woman supervisor told me the Exec VP had gone around to all the operating departments, asking if anyone else had had my experience. Then he went to the Sleazy Guy and told him his job was on the line. If he ever made another woman uncomfortable like that again, he was out the door.

And that was the end of that. This happened before Anita Hill taught everyone the meaning of the words "Sexual Harassment." All I knew is that the Sleazy Guy at work was saying personal things that made me squirm. And the Exec. VP knew it was wrong, too, and immediately put a stop to it.

Why all people haven't figured this out by now that this kind of behavior at work is wrong is beyond me.
