Transgender employee sues Cubs alleging discrimination, harassment and retaliation – Windy City Times

A damn shame, but not surprising from my time working in various Facilities Depts.
Good. Take the Ricketts for all they have.
They deserve to be called out. Fuck this organization. Hope she wins and Ricketts sells the team to someone capable of cultivating a good workplace and team.
And we have this years excuse for declining payroll
I love wrigley field and the cubs as a team, but holy shit working there was one of the worst jobs I’ve had. Not surprised at all
So much for “Friendly Confines”
Sad to see this from an organization I like. Good luck, Ms. Chris! Discrimination is abhorrent.
Not claiming to know that the Ricketts knew about this, but it just feels fitting that this happens under their ownership.
I feel so bad for her.
Oh come on! Why the downvotes???
Just makes it all the harder for me to love this team, as an enby transfemme
Ricketts needs to sell
Not surprised by this from Tom, but a bit from Laura Ricketts, she’s been very supportive of LGBTQ causes.
The HR department needs to be cleaned out asap. Very unprofessional
Honestly this is terrible to see. I really hope she’s doing okay and she takes them for all they’ve got. Really, really gross to read that her complaints with HR would get out and cause more harassment, definitely a lot of rotten apples to get rid of.
why did i have to be trans AND a cubs fan 😔 why can’t i pick a struggle
Hey, maybe Ricketts will actually use the money on free agents for once lol he’s gonna be like no please don’t sue me for everything I have. I’ll use it on the free agents.
Damn. I hope she gets the compensation she deserves
🙄
Good luck getting any cash out of Ricketts
Shocked this has been up this long. Didn’t think we were allowed to post anything that wasn’t bats and balls
