I’m not her mother-in-law,” Qu said. “I’m 10 years, 20 years older than you. I didn’t feel bitter about it or tired, even though I have two children. Who are you to tell me that your husband can’t stand it?”take sth into consideration,考虑到，把什么考虑进去。can’t stand it， 难以忍受，受不了In another clip, Qu shared her personal sacrifices as a working mother. She was working so hard that she forgot her elder son’s birthday and what grade her younger son was in at school. She said she didn’t regret it because she “chose to become a career woman.”“If you work in public relations, don’t expect weekends off,” she said in a third video. “Keep your phone on 24 hours a day, always ready to respond.”Keep your phone on 24 hours a day 手机一天24小时开着，随时待命说到这里，不得不表明下我的观点，网上看到不少人替这女的洗白的，说什么人家说的没错啊，就是应该这样。你是奴才当久了是吗？什么应该这样？你是他的奴才吗？是签了卖身契吗？公司公然违法在先，却要求你按照她所谓的要求做事，这哪里对了？In another video, she also threatened to retaliate against employees who complain about her, saying they wouldn’t get another job in the industry.The American Psychological Association describes “toxic workplace” as an environment filled with infighting, intimidation and other affronts that harm productivity.这里看美国心理协会是怎么定义毒职场的。一个充满内斗、恐吓、侮辱等损害了真正生产力的环境。Following the public outcry, Qu has lost her own job at Baidu, a person familiar with the matter told CNN on condition of anonymity.
