[sudo-discuss] asked Gwen to leave

Hi everyone, I know we discussed at the last meeting Gwen slamming the door
in someone's face when she asked to use the bathroom. There was another
incident that went down the exact same way a few days ago, and tonight
there was another that prompted me to ask Gwen to leave.

I was sitting in the small classroom and heard Gwen answer the door, and
shouted "it's 50,000 a month, are you going to help pay for this place,
huh, are you" in a very aggressive tone, but she allowed the person in to
use the bathroom. As the person was leaving, Gwen shouted "YOU'RE WELCOME"
repeatedly in an extremely snotty tone. I heard this myself, confirmed I'd
heard correctly with the woman who used the bathroom, and then asked Gwen
to leave. To her credit, she simply said "no problem" and left immediately.

This is a completely unacceptable way to answer the door at Omni. I'm not
sure if Gwen if a sudo member, but I strongly feel whichever collective she
belongs to should call her in and have a conversation about this. At the
same time, I feel we have the responsibility not to pretend this problem is
limited to Gwen and at the next sudo meeting we need to brainstorm ways to
reform the door policy to be more inclusive.
