If it's enough for Geri to kick him to the curb (and personally, I agree it is) then it's not a big assumption to say he crossed the line into a relationship of romantic interest with a subordinate - and that point essentially becomes a fireable offense. These tend to be very explicitly defined in company policies because of the conflict of interest it creates.
At least this would be true in a normal company but ayyee wacky race team - who knows!
I don't necessarily agree that the screenshots shown here would warrant being fireable. Though I'm willing to change my opinion if he does this with all his subordinates or there's some additional information that shows him being more coercive. Or some extra explanation of how my perspective is wrong, which it could be.
A reprimand would be in order though. And ofcourse his wife is entitled to being extremely mad and dissapointed.
Almost all management contracts have a fraternisation clause. If any of these leaks are true (I don't see how they are going to prove it at this point and it all seems a bit funky to me) then it would almost definitely be a fireable offence.
He cheated on his previous pregnant wife to get with Geri, si she probably knows what she signed up for.
Have you seen the other screenshots though?
I just have, so adjusting my opinion accordingly. This clearly is abuse of power and inappropriate behaviour in the workplace that goes beyond an inappropriate but not abusive attempt to have a romantic relationship with a coworker.
It's ridiculous RB thinks he can stay in his position.
