Should a politically active Democrat be fired from a long-term job at a major corporation because she's politically active?
Here's what happened with Viviana Janer this week:
*Viviana is a Puerto Rico-born-female-MBA and long-term internal auditor for Marriott — and a Democrat who has openly worked for social justice in her county
*Viviana decided to run against an incumbent Republican for the Osceola County Commission
*Viviana didn’t notify Marriott about her campaign because she was conducting it in her spare time and was a nearly-unfunded long-shot
* Marriott’s former parent company went and donated $1,000 to her Republican opponent’s campaign
* When Marriott found out that she was running against their Republican choice for the office, they fired Viviana citing “a conflict of interest” for the company
Seriously?
