Former Yahoo CEO Carol Bartz is known for her use of profanity, which raises questions about cursing in the workplace. Ask your readers what they think in an online poll. Here's an example:
What do you think about women using profanity in the workplace?
-
Why single out women? That's a double standard right there.
-
I must say i'm more bothered by women cursing in the workplace than by men doing the same thing.
-
Women and men should both watch their language. It doesn't sound good no matter who uses profanity.
-
If people use profanity occasionally in the workplace, and everyone's an adult where you work, I'm not bothered. Doesn't matter if it's a man or woman.
-
Certain words bother me more than others, but it doesn't matter if a man or woman says them.
