>>>>>>>The Scenario:
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>An employee does something unethical, but not illegal, and not on company time.
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>Another person involved with the unethical behaviour, with no previous ties to the employee's company, tells the employer about it.
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>The employer fires the employee based on this information.
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>My thoughts:
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>Unethical behaviour of the employee aside, I believe that the person contacting the employee's company is petty and incredibly immature. Why do people feel the need to "get back" at others? To cause someone to lose their job over something that they could have just ignored? As adults, many people seem to never be far away from who they probably were in 7th grade.
>>>>>>
>>>>>>Are you referring to Andy Kramek and Naomi Nosonovsky?
>>>>>
>>>>>Why does Andy's name show up as a link?
>>>>
>>>>Because his name is on the UT auto link list, like Rick Strahl, Microsoft etc.
>>>>
>>>>Would you mind answering my question?
>>>
>>>Yes.
>>>
>>>I would mind.

>>I'm surprised, and rather disappointed that you appear to lack the courage to answer the simple question I posed above.

>Then you haven't read all the posts. It's not my decision. I would do it in a heartbeat. And find somewhere to display the proof and maybe even find a way to show the Tattlers what they've done. But it's not my call.


You want to play innocent at this point? If you had really wanted to honor the privacy of things you were told in confidence you shouldn't have said anything in the first place. I sure hope you didn't think your coy phrasing was going to fool anyone for long.
