I knew a girl who got sacked from Mothers Pride Bakery for putting too much jam in the donuts. 
It wasn't a one off, she didn't like doing it so figured that if she ran out of jam she wouldn't be able to do it anymore.
Can't of looked good on her CV. |

"I would have given her a bonus I love extra jam in my doughnut."
You'd be gutted if you got one of the packets with no jam in though. I've had a packet with no jam in. Pissed of dot com lol too much jam can get messy as well. |

I would return them and double quick! I usually nibble one in the car park before leaving anyway so I wouldn't have got far.  |

Who said we have freedom of speech eh?
I would never use a social network with it set to public though. |

Slagging off your employer on a social network isn't exactly a demonstration of intelligence therefore the logical conclusion is that such a person is an idiot? |

Is it really I would assume it is a rant due to frustration but if it is are you saying everyone who ever rants online is a idiot? |

Many people have been known to slag off their employer/colleagues on Facebook, only to forget they have some of their colleagues on their friends list. Not a terribly smart move... |

Nobody ever said it was an action done with forethought but there surprisingly many highly intelligent people who do things without for thought but there are many people who make assumptions without forethought too that doesn't make them idiots too. People get frustrated they act with haste that doesn't make them an idiot though. |

I once got sacked for writing down my opinion of my boss for a colleague. Didn't mince my words. Didn't finish my tirade so left the sheet of paper in my desk drawer. When I came in after the weekend I was called into the HR bloke's office. My boss had found the letter. HR bloke tried not to burst out laughing when he read out the letter; he concurred big time, but had to fire me there and then as it had been on company paper, with the letterhead.
Still makes me grin. |

A man walked in to his local butcher to find his regular butcher, John absent so he asks the manager, "Where's John?" The manager tells the man that John was fired because he was found sticking his dick in the meat slicer" Then the man asked, "Where is the meat slicer now?" The butcher then replied, "I fired her too."
Old but still funny |

This exact same thing happened to a friend of mine years ago. Except she had written her thoughts on an email and it got into the wrong hands! |

Sorry, so your argument or point is about the misuse of the word 'idiot'?
As for having a rant online, that's not the same thing as being specifically derogative an individual or group of individuals. On that basis, referring to the self appointed group of individuals who make the 'error without forethought' of slagging of their employer on a social network (and being stupid enough to use their real name) as idiots is probably a bit of an assumption in some cases and for that I unconditionally apologise. But to be fair, its pretty idiotic thing to do |

If he had the sudden need, why not do it in the toilets like a normal person?   |

This happened to me, I had a colleague and who just got right on my tits, so I sent him an email telling him what I thought about him, I was taken to disciplinary, I argued I was allowed an opinion on somebody and was allowed to state my opinion, hr agreed but then sacked me for miss use of media policy a slight technicality lol |

A few years ago, firm I worked for had a departmentmental "awayday" at a hotel, which started the previous evening with a meal, drinks, and a team-based quiz to get us sociable.
Never found out *exactly* what happened, but a fairly new employee (about 3 months) wasn't there the next day, and there was a notice from management they "were no longer employed by the company". One of the (*very* attractive) female members of staff had apparently been "inappropriately approached". |

Oh when I was fighting to see my daughter and put money on the table at all costs I was a janitor for [a very reputable high street supermarket that claims it likes to help a little bit] where I was fired for working too hard at my own job and not working hard enough at the jobs that weren't mine to do.
After I was fired, got the cleaning manager investigated and he quit his job. |

My daughter was made redundant twice - each time because her job went to India.
Stupid - especially since the first company then later brought the jobs back to Britain as it didn't work out in India. |

You rant to your friends or people you trust. You don't rant about your job or your boss in a public forum that they could have access to. So I would say that if you do then yes that makes you a bit of an idiot. |
