Hey,Stella Actor | Adult Movies Online it's a day of the week ending in "y;" must be time for yet another Travis Kalanick apology.
After a video of the ride hailing company CEO berating an Uber driver emerged Tuesday, Kalanick sent a note to staff, which was subsequently shared as a blog post.
SEE ALSO: Uber's SVP of engineering is out after Recode surfaces previous sexual harassment allegationSaying he treated the driver, Fawzi Kamel, "disrespectfully," Kalanick apologized to him as well as the wider Uber team and community.
"To say that I am ashamed is an extreme understatement," he wrote. "My job as your leader is to lead … and that starts with behaving in a way that makes us all proud. That is not what I did, and it cannot be explained away."
In the six-minute video, published by Bloomberg, Kamel asks the CEO about falling fare costs, to which Kalanick replies: "bullshit."
After refusing to engage in much discussion with the driver about the reduction in pay, Kalanick finishes with an ugly parting shot: "Some people don't like to take responsibility for their own shit. They blame everything in their life on somebody else. Good luck!"
In his apology note, Kalanick admits the pugnacious attitude on display in the clip is "a reflection of me."
"The criticism we've received is a stark reminder that I must fundamentally change as a leader and grow up," he wrote. "This is the first time I've been willing to admit that I need leadership help and I intend to get it."
It's not clear where he'll get said leadership help, although Arianna Huffington seems poised to lend a hand. The media mogul and Uber board member was parachuted into the company's San Francisco HQ last week after a devastating account of sexual harassment and mismanagement was published by former employee, Susan Fowler Rigetti.
In response, Kalanick announced an "independent" review, helmed by Huffington and the company's chief human resources officer Liane Hornsey, along with former Attorney General under President Obama, Eric Holder.
Since Regetti's revelations, other ex-Uber employees have spoken out about Uber's "baked" culture of sexism -- a company where, as Kalanick has shared, only 15.1 percent of technical positions are filled by women.
That's not the only garbage fire on top of garbage fire Uber is trying to put out. The company is also getting sued by Google for allegedly stealing self-driving car secrets. Although, Uber dropped Kalanick's note just as President Donald Trump began his first address of Congress Tuesday evening, so obviously they haven't lost all sense of humor.
Is this about the time people start talking about finding a new CEO?
