I get that you can't make comments about big-breasted women in the workplace. That's what is called "inappropriate." But you should be able to make chesticles jokes outside of work when someone compliments your car. You can't at Apple, as now former vice president of procurement Tony Blevins is learning.
Here's the offending clip. Daniel Mac is a content creator that asks people with really nice cars what they do for a living. He was impressed with Blevins' Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren.
I have rich cars, play golf, and fondle big-brested women. But I take weekends and major holidays off.
I am 99.86% sure Blevins was doing Arthur. Or, his version of Arthur. The movie is over forty years old, so he didn't have the quote quite right. But it was a clear joke. He did not mean his literal job was fondling big-breasted women. He didn't make the comment in the office. He was having an enjoyable weekend with a well-endowed lady friend, who also found the joke funny.
But the clip went viral, and you'll totally believe what happens next.
After an internal investigation into the matter, Blevins’s team -- which included about half a dozen direct reports and several hundred employees -- was removed from his command, according to people familiar with the situation.
I thought this was America. Though I'm not surprised about Apple. My guess is there are a lot of flat-chested women there who felt bad.
Tony Blevins should have specified that he meant big-breasted (alleged) trans women. Apple would have given him an award.
