Giftball scandal. Residents of Radom: You can't beat a cunning woman from Radom

Hey Cunning woman from Radom Everyone heard. After Christmas Eve 2012, it made Radom so famous that to this day many Poles probably have such first associations with it. In Radom they still suffer from this.

– It's almost a monument attached to it radome. And every time we laugh, Radom is famous for several things that we remember Cunning woman. Although this is a bad association, maybe we should finally use this symbol in marketing? Book it and promote it to attract tourists? – laughs Robert Kropotovich, Radom consultant.

To some extent, he imagines that they could even build a real monument to her, taking advantage of the hatred that has struck the city because of her, and turning it into an asset.

– Please imagine that we have a group of people fighting for the Nihil Novi Constitution adopted in Radom in 1505, and for the royal castle that was here in the 16th century. But who connects this with radome? A few history buffs. And Cunning woman It is a slogan that everyone relates to. We cannot be offended or ashamed of that, we must distance ourselves and perhaps turn it into success. It's come and gone, and we take it on the chin and turn it into a tourist attraction – that's what he thinks.

But the “cunning woman” is one thing. Radom, like Sosnowicz, has been struggling with her negative image for many years. And now an event has occurred that is famous throughout Poland – Dismissal of an employee by a company from Radomand then The city became famous again.

“The cunning woman has been removed from Radom.”

Incredible publicity, a storm throughout the country, hatred for the company and great feelings it caused in the nation One tweet Woman fired over Skype and then employer's reactions. The issue affected the whole of Poland. Of course, this could have happened anywhere. In every city, in every company. But it wasn't so lucky for Radom.

“Once upon a time there was a cunning woman from Radom. Today Mr. Darius and Radom too”, “The cunning woman from Radom has been dethroned. Now comes Janusz. Also from Radom”, “The cunning woman has strong competition” – these were the associations that immediately arose Online.

So the question is, what does a scandal look like with a company that suddenly, under strange circumstances, is in the context of the city's image? It became the talk of all of Poland?

– without exaggeration. I'm not going to make a big deal out of it. This is the story of one day. Like the primroses and snowdrops of today, they will be gone in two weeks. Who deals with such matters? In my opinion, the behavior of this company does not have the same effect on the image of the city as, for example, a cunning woman – reacts Robert Kropotovich.

He also believes that this topic is being unnecessarily heated.

-There are bigger scandals. There are other issues that make the radome look bad. even if airport, which is always withdrawn. It was built and planes are not flying anywhere. “It is known that Radom is closer to Africa than Warsaw,” Mr. Soski was quoted as saying. It keeps spreading, and it keeps coming back. I never heard anyone say, “Listen, Giftbull, Mr. Darrick…” But the airport and the cunning woman do, he says.

“But what is it? I haven't heard.”

So, if someone thinks that everyone lives in Radom Giftball scandal Like half the Internet, it's probably wrong.

– I think that such events will increase the pressure on the people of Radom for a short period and then disappear. Like everything in virtual space – comments Dr. Maria Gajaca, sociologist from the University of Technology and Human Sciences in Radom.

We find out quickly.

Resident: – But what's going on? I could not hear.

One of our interlocutors, as if after a while, remembers what he was talking about: – Well, I know now. Is this about dismissal?

We also hear:

– Maybe it's being fed by someone? Maybe someone doesn't like radome?

– Maybe someone from the competition wanted this?

– It's stormy. Chives scandal. A scandal out of nothing. You journalists discover some scandals, and sometimes you expose them one-sidedly. Why are you writing about? radome, and not about some nonsense X? There are hundreds of thousands of layoffs of various kinds in Poland – the owner of one of the advertising agencies in this city reacts.

Although he himself admits that he noticed this status on the Internet because the name “a job“.

– My opinion as a business owner is that every coin has two sides. The employee will always stay with the employee and the employer will always stay with the employer. I also hire employees, and I know what they can be like now. I have had both positive and negative experiences. It is known that the business owner must take care of his company. And young man They often say they can do it all, but it turns out they're very green chives—and they react.

He does not hide his support for Mr. Dariush, even though he does not know him personally. Yet he knows the company. -It is very famous in the domestic industry. It has been on the market for some time. This is not the Bosch company that was founded yesterday. Maybe the class format wasn't what it should be. But since he was somewhere on the road, maybe he decided he'd rather say it quickly? “You can draw whatever conclusions you want from everything,” he says.

But not everyone shares this approach.

“This is really an embarrassment.”

Let us remind you, The woman's expulsion caused a torrent of comments. “Please, you have to be kidding. Thank you, bye.” I don't pay tuition fees“- took on a life of its own and It became a huge hit on the Internet. The company owner issued a statement and then apologized It was considered a half-hearted apology. But the company also announced Sell ​​printed t-shirts as part of an exchange of letters with a graphic designer.

Sociologist Dr. Maria Gajaca comments:

-You might as well say that Companies Maybe they are in all cities. And you have to look at it as Unacceptable behavior from the employer. No matter where it happens. I don't think there would be a reasonable person in Poland who would defend this employer or even be able to explain this kind of behavior.

Of course, there are cases when people cannot control their emotions or do something stupid. But the habit is simple. You should apologize, admit your mistake, and try to fix it in some way. I think it's very reprehensible when people try to change its meaning, for example by producing T-shirts. I'll close it briefly: this adds evil to grief.Dr. Maria GajacaSociologist Radom

Robert Kropotovich: – The method of dismissal can only prove that the owner has the class and courage to fire someone via correspondence. So far, I have only heard about the dismissal of judges and prosecutors via fax.

He says about shirts: – This is embarrassing. I wouldn't understand someone wearing such a shirt now, for example, on the beach.

“They don't even know where Radom is on the map.”

However, in our conversations, the year keeps coming back radome image. It doesn't matter if that's the case Sick leave on Skype Whether or not it returns to public space, Radom is aware of the city's image.

– This is a little ignorance of others. Someone somewhere says something about Radom, and everyone laughs, but they don't even know what it is. If you ask young people, some of them don't even know where a job Located on the map. They have never been here before, and they don't know what it's like to live here. Positive things will pass by and only negative things will appear – says the owner of an advertising agency.

– Same thing with airport. It's on someone's fingerprints. Emotions are constantly running high around him, and that there is always something wrong with him. I hear and see it developing. I think Radom has a more negative image. Certainly not positive. If it is neutral, it is towards the negative. There are many wonderful things from Radom that have not been written about. He only adds when something bad happens.

It's been like this for years. Last fall, when PiS defeated Robert Baković in the parliamentary elections, Radom's image also appeared in every conversation.

-We know what our image is. Starting from Cunning woman from Radom Through failed beginnings airport, Radom Sosnovich was in Mazovia. We laughed a little. What can I say now? As a citizen of Radom, this hurts me. As people with democratic and liberal views, we were hit in the face. This is not good for the city. This is a tragedy – Waldemar Pokalski, president of the Radomists for Democracy, told us.

The city is fighting against it.

It is said:This is the peculiarity of radome. Although this is not the case”

Robert Kropotovich: The cunning woman became a symbol. We can find something like this in every city. We are no different from residents of other cities.

Everyone laughs at the airport, but let them come here and see. Allow them to take pictures. I know that an American movie was filmed at our airport. There are arguments for turning this airport into something that could encourage potential tourists to come here for a weekend.Robert Kropotovichradome consultant

This is how the sociologist explains the negative reception and associations that Radom arouses.

-This can be explained from a social standpoint. For many years, Radom has presented stories like this in public Cunning womanwhether airport, which certainly has an undeserved bad reputation. I have traveled with her and I can say that she is exceptionally aesthetic, clean, well located and works efficiently – says Dr. Gajaca.

– This is how perception works. If we already have an image of something, we select – by attraction – all the elements that fit this image. This is the mechanism by which whenever there is a situation with unusual behavior in the radome, there will be a saying: “This is the peculiarity of radome.”. Although this is not specific to this city at all. He explains that public perception selects these types of elements and then propagates, exaggerates, and generalizes them.

Years ago We wrote in naTemat that in 2011 it was only 1.12 percent Radomian They were satisfied with their place of residence.

How do the people of Radom see the image of their city today?

-It's definitely changing for the better. Radomians They see the advantages of this city and it seems to me that a significant part of those who live here are satisfied with this apartment. Naturally, we would like a better job market. Young people want to move away from radome, but this is neither new nor groundbreaking. The big advantage of Radom is that the educational system prepares these people to work in large centers where they do well and make their careers. In general, it is a city where people live peacefully and in a friendly way – answers a sociologist from Radom.
