Many of us have become accustomed to having to be careful what we say at work.
No doubt some have lost jobs because of their inconvenient views.
Also no doubt many have stuck to their views regardless and paid some sort of price, because they believe that life in the absence of truth becomes a party that they don't want to attend.
This is the story of Jennifer Sey, once a competitive gymnast from the USA who rose to become Levi's Brand President (no I don't know either but it sounds pretty prestigious).
This is a tale of our times. She tells how she admired Levi's for what they stood for, and was proud to work for them. How she was offered promotion - with strings attached that she didn't like.
Her judgement and her principles have evidently cost her a great deal, but I have a suspicion that she will be the winner once the future unfolds.
One door closes, another opens - twas ever thus.
