- I posted before that I thought a person losing their job over this was
- an overly extreme reaction.
-
- However, I wonder how well the person is doing their job, if it can be
- threatened by such a minor thing.
-
- Before anyone asks - I was not one of those that wrote to his employer. I
- also believe that using the 'n' key is the most appropriate response if you
- do not wish to read a posting.
-
- However, I still stand by what I said. A person should be willing to accept
- the consequences for their actions - even if they are more harsh than they
- expected. When people complained and are ignored - I am not surprised that
- they went further and contacted the employer. The person making the postings
- should be intelligent enough to realize this could happen.
