Company to Bike Rider: You're Fired!

Juli Briskman has now been fired for her spontanious speech expression that became a viral photograph. After she included the photo on her Facebook page, the company took immediate action, citing the following policy from the employee handbook:

Quote:

"Covered Social Media Activity that contains discriminatory, obscene malicious or threatening content, is knowingly false, create [sic] a hostile work environment, or similar inappropriate or unlawful conduct will not be tolerated and will be subject to discipline up to an [sic] including termination of employment."

Two points: should the post have been 'covered social media activity,' considering that neither the photo nor her facebook page linked her to her employeer, AKIMA LLC?

And second, why wasn't another executive fired a few months ago for saying to another employee, on an account that did identify him with the company, "You're a (expletive) Libtard a------"?

Conservative male not fired, liberal female fired. Got it.

That government contractor is afraid of the wrath of the vindictive Tweeter-in-Chief.

I read about this earlier in the day and she may have a very good case on hand.
On hindsight, she probably should not have identified herself to her employer voluntarily.
"Fuck them if they can't take a joke" I say and hope she wins in court.

I'm very familiar with this company, and unfortunately they probably did this woman a favor.
The place is full of people just as stupid as she is.
It's just another unethical Alaska native corp sucking money out of the set aside gov contracts they are handed.
Hopefully Trump will get around to taking apart this rigged game too, and save us all more tax dollars.

I wouldn't hold my breath on that one, Was.

Trump's busy saving tax dollars for himself and his 1% cronies. Anyone who, at this point, STILL believes Trump is going to do anything for the little guy us a victim of his con.

If this even bothers Trump remotely, the only thing he needs to know is who to blame this one on. Obama or Hillary?

Give this man a medal for he is a true patriot.
And the sign on the back window of his truck says:

“Fuck Trump and Fuck You For Voting For Him,”

:D :D

And now the sheriff of this town wants to bring Disorderly Charges against the driver. The sheriff is also contemplating a run for congress. What a party pooper. As usual, stuff like this only happens in Texas or Florida.

You know, I think the sheriff has a point. I don't think he has a case, but he has a point. There's such a thing as being too provocative. Bad results typically outweigh good.
