What happens on S tJohn
Does not stay there...sometimes it ends up on Youtube...and sometimes, if you're really lucky, it shows up at the dinner table in front of your boss, your division VP and your division COO.
One of my coworkers made reference to the video last night at dinner. Another, always ready to come to my aid, whipped out her iphone and showed it to everyone.
So...what started out as "Rob tries to ask pointed questions about how we're planned to move forward in an economy where outsourcing is becoming more and more prevalent" turned into "No...I swear...I was NOT drunk when I put on a bra and skirt and danced in front of a camera"
Can we please get back to how we're positioned in the marketplace? No?
Great...I'm the dancing jackass now.
I regret NOTHING though!
Bosses ain't gonna forget me!

The three employees who got fired were supervisors. They were making inappropriate comments about an employee on other employees' FB walls. The company felt that the supervisors' conduct compromised their ability to act in a supervisory capacity because they were so openly disrespectful to an employee "in front of" (on FB)that employee's co-workers.
The employee who was the subject of the ridicule came to management and complained that the supervisors' comments amounted to harassment. The company investigated and then terminated the three supervisors.
Perfectly legal.

Wisconsin, smell the dairy air
For the 84th time...I was NOT drunk!fatboy wrote:I would like to know what kind of FB post would get you fired. A picture of a drunk person dancing does not seem like grounds for dismisal. A picture of a mid-level manager hitting a crack pipe.........possibly. The point is, if it's not illegal, nobody appears to have been injured, etc., it just "looks bad", how can you get fired for that?
Nor was I on company time.
