“They tried to send her to the Super U [a supermarket] next door to buy makeup remover to take off her lipstick,” one of her lawyers, Gwenola Vaubois, told France Bleu. Syntia refused, and shortly after, she was told not to come to work anymore. Two months later, her doctor put her on medical leave from work.

The lawyer for the McDonald’s franchise argued that there was no intention to discriminate in the manager’s actions and the statements made by Syntia’s colleagues weren’t intended to be harassment.

Your intentions really don’t fucking matter. What matters is your actions. If you drive drunk and kill someone it doesn’t matter if your intentions were to just get home quickly while saving money on not getting a rideshare.

If you bully someone and they kill themselves your intentions don’t fucking matter.
