[quote=Allan from Fallbrook]Dan: When you add in the gloating and “inappropriate” Twitters and messages that the author confesses to following the termination of the offending poster, it starts to look like something else entirely.
Especially given that there were other, off-color comments made that were NOT flagged or deleted, nor did those posters find themselves out of work as a result.
As to the author’s assertion, “Well, it was a school…”: I find that utterly disingenuous and self serving, even more given the post-facto, almost mea culpa nature of the writing.
We should all refrain from being jerkwads, no doubt about it, but we all (myself definitely included) find ourselves posting comments that we look back on and cringe over.
That being said, the punishment needs to fit the offense and this was certainly beyond the pale.[/quote]
Yeah.
Well put.
The sheer dickishness of the proprietor was what made the sympathy so lopsided in that situation.
And yeah some comments I put would best be replaced by sharks.
Edit: also, I am not sure that Kurt Greenbaum was the proprietor per se.
