/I would (*** ** ***) sack (****) her too ! (blankedy blank!)

banshee_bones

ah ffs! if everyone got sacked for making one small negative comment about their jobs everyone would be unemployed. I think they were looking for a reason to lay off staff and found one...

Depends on what she posted tbh.

If it was something company confidential, I'd sack her.

Spore

I'd give her my sack

16yr old.. i don't really care.

She said her job was boring. Hardly a sackable offense.

In all fairness she was probably a demonic employee they couldnt wait to get out of there for the benfit of all involved. People who post stuff on facebook and then accuse those who see it as "nosey" dont deserve a job that involves more than 2 moving parts.It also said "she had begun working" so it was most likely her first few days on the job. If I started a job and told the interweb how boring it was I would fully expect to see my "probation period" terminated on my first day.

Not my office she wouldn't. Wonder if she wants a job

She looks filthy

Seems she was sacked for showing other employees rather than making the comment itself.

Kimberley , as it happens I have a job opening up in 2 years time. Gimme ring then.

According to the BBC report, she invited her new colleagues to view her facebook page... and one of them sent it to the boss!

Naikon

Good enough of her. She should think twice before posting such stuff on the
interwebs. I would fire anyone >=24 who still uses a bebo or myspace page on the spot:pac:

connundrum

Meh, never use own name and never refer to work.

Easy done.

VivGrise

block your page.

done.

16 year olds havent grasped the concept of privacy

Capt'n Midnight

That's a nice bit of marketing of herself you have to admit. Only on the job a few days and it's all over the web.

red_ice

I think she deserves it tbh. The boss made some valid points in that statement. Imagine going into your office and putting it up on the notice board there "works boring". Moral is a very hard thing to build (without using money) and she knocked it down.. in his eyes anyways. He did her a fav.

littletiger

She did have to be disciplined and firing her seems correct to me. If companies turn a blind eye to this kind of thing it just opens the flood gates.

RxQueen

should of putting page on private ... meh 16 she'll get over it

The main lesson she's learned is that work is not like school!

Anyone checked her facebook for hot pics? :pac:

Complaining about losing her job because she complained about her job? That Kimberley certainly takes the biscuit. :P

I don't really think facebook can be compared to the noticeboard at work, maybe the noiceboard at your gym or a shop. It's a social forum, nothing to do with work. If she posted it on one of their internal sites it would be a different story.

A bit harsh imo.

zonEEE

Think about it how many of you here have said "bored in work" while on boards etc, i suppose the company cant really trace it back because of a user name but the IT guy in the company could.

she will be cute when she is 18

Probably some ugly, sweaty old bat with a face like a horse's arse trying to get rid of the "competition".

I was expecting a link to sarahjessicaparkerisahorse.com, but that site's gone.

Open letter to my employer,

Everything I ever said I didn't mean unless it was positive. I love my job.

That is all.

It says in the post that her social circle involved people that she works with. So it directly effects the people in work!

Good example imo

I'd like to sack her!!!

Boo-urns!
repeated joke

Ridiculous if in fact all she posted was that it was boring job. Who cares as long as she gets her work done? Her employer wasn't even named. There must be more to it than the Facebook comment. They must be loving the bad PR.

Heard of kids getting suspended from school because of comments made on bebo.. Teachers are apparently now reading bebo because of bullying etc. What kind of eejit though would openly complain about their boss on facebook, asking for trouble. bet one of the other stafft reported it to HR:D

ejmaztec

All of the idiots who get the sack over their employer revelations should start another Bebo type site called toothickforwork.com.

pablomakaveli

I think the real issue here is that a male boss fired a hot young woman.

What kind of a man fires a hot female employee?

Answer: He's not really a man at all. I think we're dealing with crab-people here. They've done stuff like this before you know.

You already got your coat way back in comment #40. Go back to the house immediately. Chances are you've just stolen somebody else's coat.
