Oh, but you see, it’s okay that Jenn C made those comments because she “grew up celebrating Hanukkah and her brother is a kosher Jew!”*
*from her comments on the Tony Danza show.
Slight hijack. Did anyone else see this show today? Erica, from season one works on the show, and Trump was interviewed today. He kept referring to her as “my little Erica”. It was kind of strange.
From StGermain’s link:
Maybe Stacy could help her out.
I actually feel bad that she got axed…my tv hate doesn’t extend to actually wishing people evil and apparently she is very good at what she does and I don’t think she would be if she were a total Nazi. I would have shipped her off to sensitivity training and put her on probation while things died down. Mostly it seems like her old company feels the fool for promoting her appearance on the Apprentice beforehand.
OTOH, her public persona makes it really, really hard to like her.
I don’t actually feel badly for her for getting fired. She knew she was being filmed, right? And, even though she was presumably on a hiatus from work to do the show, most companies are pretty itchy about the way that their employees may represent them even while not ‘on the clock’. Firing her is one sure way to try to maintain their customers’ confidence that they have a zero-tolerance policy towards bigotry.
I look at it this way—she wants to work for Trump, right? How would he feel about one of his employess making an extremely well-publicized statement like that? That’s the standard she (and all the contestants) should hold themselves to.
I’m not sorry that she lost her job. She seems to think that she’s entitled to say whatever she wants – even if it comes across as bigotted in the worst kinds of ways – without facing any repercussions. She wants pro bono legal help? In a pig’s eye.
Okay, I’m watching the rerun – on Thursday, did they (the editors) show the meeting with the Zagats where they (the Zagats) told them (Apex) to keep it simple?
Oh. My. God.
Stacy and Elizabeth were writing notes to each other while waiting to go into the boardroom? And snickering? That’s sickeningly petty.
Carolyn, in the extended footage, looks so much better. I don’t think Jennifer looked that bad… I think she got railroaded. She’s deluded and a poor leader, but she’s not evil.
And I’m sorry, but I remember Bill from last season too well to think he deserves his arrogance.
Nope. We also didn’t see Jenn C. make the “executive decision” to go with Asian fusion because she’s sick of Italian food. 
No, I remember the executive decision thing.
What an eye-roller that woman is! I thought they were going to spin right out of the sockets.
Loved the shot of the three of them on the sofa – Elizabeth at one end, the other two scribbling notes to each other at the other. How junior high!
Did anyone else catch Stacy R and Elizabeth high-fiving each other in the elevator? Oooh, I want to see the Little Munchkin go down sooo bad. The others are bad, very bad, but she surpasses them exponentially on the scale of incompetent bitchery. She’s so diabolical! She doens’t contribute anything valuable, but she’s so devisive and poisonous. At the same time, she doesn’t ever mess up enough to validly be called to the boardroom. She makes Omorosa look not so bad. It’s awful. It really is.
I honestly don’t get why Stacy is considered so awful. I would have been really pissed off about the Jew comment, just as Stacy was, and I think I would have said something to the other girls, just as she did. The only difference is, when Jen C. got in my face, I’d have gotten right back in hers, not said, “I don’t wanna talk to you!” and run away. Yeah, I’d have whipped the “anti-Semite” word out, why not? Jen was wrong and her comment certainly warranted the response Stacy gave it at the very least.
How is Stacy worse than any of those other witches? Maria screwed up bigtime on Task 2, then deftly shifted blame onto Stacie J’s "split personality, and had the nerve later to go off on Elizabeth for poor leadership and lack of character. Ummm, where are you in all this, Slick? She was just as quick to jump on the Jen C. Hate Train this week. She’ll say anything to avoid being fired. Same goes for Sandy, who “had Jen’s back” and was supposed to blame Elizabeth, but when her feet were to the fire, she decided to go along to get along and pull a Brutus. Or Ivana, who called Stacie J “borderline schizophrenic” and after her epic bad performance in Task 2, had the nerve to jump on Jen C. with both feet a scant week later. They are ALL vile, conniving witches. Only Jen M. has any balls and she seems to hate all of them. How does Stacy stand out to you as the worst?
Also, about the high five? They earned that puppy. Jen called them into the boardroom for transparently personal reasons, thinking she had a shot to get rid of an enemy via scapegoating, regardless of their performance on the task. Hey, it worked with Stacie J, right? They were vindicated after being wrongly vilified, which to my mind warrants a smidge of smugness. Jen certainly had it coming after pulling crap like that. Stacy warned her, if you take me into the boardroom, I’m going to bury you. She made good on that, which is fair play.
From what I recall in regards to Wednesday’s episode, we saw the “executive decision” but not the meeting with Zagats.
Is Sandy the bridal shop owner who did the restaurant “look”? Carolyn and Trump were all over that, saying that was a real issue and Sandy should be in the boardroom, but I didn’t see it. I thought it was pretty neutral and could’ve worked with a lower-concept restaurant. The look was clean and simple from the paintings to the place settings. It didn’t look cookie cutter or cheap, but it didn’t look frou-frou, either. It wasn’t her decison to choose uber-trendy Asian fusion or wear slinky dresses.
StG
I don’t know, I think “stark” covers it fairly well. Unlike the men who had huge windows the women had a lot of wall space to cover and the place looked pretty barren. And while the table settings they chose weren’t ugly they also were not very distinctive. I’d notice it if I was in their resteraunt and I don’t typically notice things like that.
The problem Jenn C had when it came time to pick who to go to the boardroom was that she had already praised the look too much.
She couldn’t have then said it was terrible, because Caroline would have THEN asked why she brought her in when she praised what she did.
There was ZERO doubt about it. Jenn C was going to get fired no matter who she brought in the boardroom. I wouldn’t have been surprised if Trump had fired her without even letting her narrow it down to two or three people.
