    Why is this grounds for resignation? He clearly said he sent it by accident.

    Could happen to anyone.

      Are you also jacking it at work in your lunch break?

        What an inappropiate and sexually charged question.

        At least this guy says he made a mistake. What’s your excuse?

          It’s really not, no.

          He said it could happen to anyone, but it could only happen to people who film themselves jacking it at work.

          Him using the word “anyone” implies that jacking it at work is so normal to him, that the only mistake he sees here is that he sent it to the wrong person.

            I used the word “anyone”. That was me. The intention of my message was humorous, and I’m sorry if you didn’t find it or my later question funny.

      Sure he SAID it was an accident, AFTER she reacted with outrage. Then he tried to shut her up. That’s the behavior of someone who’s gotten away with this behavior before, probably with women who were in a more vulnerable position. She wound up filing for sexual harassment, so this may be the tip of the iceberg for his behavior. It’s what she had evidence for.

      Eh, people regularly get fired for way less than whacking it in the bathroom and accidentally sending the video to coworkers. Besides I’m of the opinion that the mayor should be held to higher standards not lower ones.
