Laurie Ruettimann, sexual harassment and the apocalypse

Laurie Ruettimann ushered in the apocalypse earlier this week by posting an article about sexual harassment on AOL owned Lemondrop.

You and I both know that

  • Laurie is awesome
  • Laurie doesn't need me to defend her
For the record:  I think she's dead on. 

I also think if people calmed down a little bit, read the entire article, and thought about the core message for a minute or two, they would get that what she is saying makes some serious sense:
  • You are responsible for your career.
  • There is no bigger employee advocate than you. Protect your own interests and act accordingly.
And that, my friends, is that.

I agree as well. Get out. Don't run screaming, find a new job first, but get out.
