I know at least one woman who lied in order to get someone’s job.......twice.........then after the third try she herself got fired................
My wife was fired by a company after another woman told many lies about her.
She actually saw one of her ex-upper management in a Costco a decade later. The guy apologized all over the place. The other woman had been there a long time and they had just believed what she said about my wife, who was new there, but once my wife was gone, the output of the team spoke for itself and the other lady was actually fired.
This is why, as far as all these sexually inapropriate behaviors are concerned, my motto is, “if there is not conviction in a court of law or out of court settlement, it didn’t happen.” And if a new claim is for something more than two years ago, it didn’t happen.
