The main takeaway should be a company has one obligation to you: a job to do and money to be paid. You as an adult bring your services to fix the problem in exchange for said compensation. Personal tesponbility is everything and Im glad she was fired. Individuals like her should be fired and removed from any workplace where they act as a menace to their coworkers.

I don't agree that she was acting as a menace to her coworkers. At least, I don't think you can come to that conclusion from her blog post alone. I would be pissed too if I wrote an official blog post for a feature that I cared about, and someone else went behind my back and rewrote it and published it without even telling me.

A better way to put what I wrote is this: these problems can all be avoided by approaching problems from a professionalism point of view, rather than a social justice one. Both Coraline and her coworkers did unprofessional things that could have been avoided with better communication, and perhaps more attentive management.
