I’ll bet this b**ch was brought up the way George Carlin described in his last HBO special.

The “self-esteem” movement and how these kids were told they were great no matter what answer they gave in class, even if it was the wrong answer, and how they never lost in any competition because “everyone’s a winner”. Then, when they get out into the real world as adults, they don’t know how to handle criticism or being told that they are wrong.

Several newsroom employees heard Anato-Mensah shouting, yelling obscenities and threatening Prenevost, saying, "You don't know where I'm from. I'll mess you up, b ——-."

We can guess ... Highland Park or 5th avenue it ain't.

Get ready? Don’t make me laugh. Corporate America long ago accepted the available employee pool and took in the baby boomers’ spoiled kids as is.

When confronted with a job issue, they either get nasty or cry, or both. I’ve seen it and when it happens everyone is afraid to tell them they are being unprofessional.

It's scenes like this that make working in an office enjoyable.

Unfortunately, you'll probably go your whole career without witnessing a scene like this in your office.

By throwing a police-involving hissy fit in this modern internet age, she has lost not only the internship she had, but many future jobs.

An employer cannot afford to hire a hothead prone to violence. It’s called negligent hiring. Oh, and the prospective employer won’t wonder for a second whether this boss “had it coming to her.”

I think there’s a lesson here for all of us, isn’t there? ;o)

Prenevost is obviously intimidated by strong women.
