Thanks Claws

Feeling too sleep deprived to come up with a witty quip for now!

GingerIvy · 01/05/2017 11:50

Thanks Claws This is truly the most amazing thread. All other threads are fake. Sad.

Orlantina · 01/05/2017 11:50

I wonder how many threads that is? I feel the need for a list...

Top thread. Although the BEST will be the Impeachment thread.

Thanks for new thread TheClaws

Ginger that was an interesting read re the Ivanka fairytale.

I really hope that Biden does run in 2020. A decent president again and Across and I can run his fanclub Grin

Gosh Orlantina you are the the most legendary of legends. Thank you for the list and the link to the old thread.

Very interesting article.

From the article :

And as she prepares to release a volume of business advice, sources familiar with her company have suggested that working for Ivanka Trump was not a happy experience for some staff, amid hints about an autocratic corporate culture, and claimed that her brand is falling short of its original grand vision.

The Guardian spoke to a former executive at Ivanka Trump’s brand and two others close to staff who have worked at the company. A number of others who had worked at the fashion brand declined to comment, some having signed non-disclosure agreements.

“I can’t talk,” said one former executive. “They are the most litigious family out there.”

cozietoesie · 01/05/2017 12:38

Thanks, Claws. Smile

GingerIvy · 01/05/2017 12:40

Another bit:

Ivanka Trump’s first book The Trump Card – Playing to Win in Work and Life (2009), portrays her in some ways as a chip off the old block. In it she mentions a passive-aggressive boss tactic she picked up from media mogul Rupert Murdoch, about turning up in the office on the weekend – in this case, at the Trump Organization, not her then-fledgling style brand.

“You’d be surprised by how quickly your employees will fall in line behind you when you set this kind of example,” she wrote.

Friends of those who have worked at the fashion brand said working for Ivanka Trump also meant feeling the constant influence of the rest of the family, especially Donald Trump. There would be weekend invitations to meals with the Trump family and early morning and late night work obligations in ways that meant the boundaries between an employee’s home and work life were often blurred.

Orlantina · 01/05/2017 12:46

Sounds like Goodfellas....

Work with the 'family'. Play and socialise with 'the family'

GingerIvy · 01/05/2017 12:47

There is some really interesting info about her business and her former admin and some pretty fair idea that she is definitely a chip off the old block. Scary.

BiglyBadgers · 01/05/2017 12:50

Lovely new thread. I did enjoy reading back through the old thread titles, ah the memories...Grin
