Looks like Mavs have another problem going on too. Cuban can't run a NBA team but he sure thinks he could make a great president.
Don't know what to make of this one. Seems a lot lighter on the details than the other articles/accusations.
An employee found a noose in a closet? Was it on display, was it meant to be seen, was it lying on a shelf, was it actually a "noose" or just a rope or maybe a lasso (this is cow town afterall)? It could have had racist intent or it could have been like the
lady who saw a swastika in wrapping paper, seeing something that's not really there.
Sounds like the lady whose trying to bring the suit didn't actually even see the noose, because it was in a closet and Mark Cuban threw it in the trash, which to me sounds like a good thing to do, at least without any more context.
Newsome was hired in 2004 as a premium sales executive. She went on to become a suite sales executive and said she generated $50 million in sales during her 13 years with the company.
Newsome said she complained throughout her time with the management company about racial discrimination, pay inequity, harassment, and bullying and taunting from her co-workers. She was fired in March 2017 in what she said was retaliation for a 2015 complaint she made to human resources.
There's so much that could be going on here.
Another article states she was fired for not meeting sales quota, which is pretty standard in the sales world, especially in leaner years like the Mavs are probably experiencing now. So she could be the type of person that blames her failures on anybody but themselves, or she could have some legit gripes. Need more details/context.
So not sure if this is the tip of the iceberg of some serious problems, or just a bitter ex-employee.
