Summary

Walmart fired Dani Davis, a 6’4" cisgender woman, after a man who mistook her for transgender verbally threatened her in a women’s restroom at a Florida store.

Davis, visibly shaken, reported the March 14 incident to her immediate supervisor but was fired for not informing salaried management, allegedly creating a “security risk.”

Davis called the firing discriminatory. After viral backlash, Walmart offered to reinstate her with back pay.

Davis, a longtime employee, is uncertain about returning, citing fears of a hostile work environment.

            No. That was actually a trap.
            Trying to get you to give out doxxifying information, like the year you married or how many kids you have and stuff like that.

            You sidestepped well.

            Says the guy insinuating context to justify this attack, and accusing the woman attacked of lying, despite the fact that she was fired for not reporting the attack to a manager quickly enough?

            At this point, you’re just embarrassing yourself. Lemmy is still too small for everyone here not to see through this weak ass bait.

              The 4 day old article about a Facebook post is the only bait around. I’ll wait for the whole story if there ever is one.
