Want to talk about your bad boss on Facebook? Twitter? Anywhere in the public domain where you name names, including your own? You might want to think twice.
A case in Connecticut raises the question. The National Labor Relations Board alleges that a woman was fired by American Medical Response of Connecticut after she dissed her supervisor on her personal Facebook page. American Medical Response is saying that the woman was fired because of complaints about her service levels.
The case was supposed to go to a hearing this past Tuesday but the two sides instead decided to try to hash it out outside of court.
We (obviously) think talking about bad bosses should be America’s next national past-time, but we suggest you do it by using nicknames, pseudonyms, ghost writers and the works, especially if you still work for the company.
If you want more, check out the Fired for Facebook fan page on, you guessed it, Facebook. Apparently it happens to more people than you’d think. Check it out here.
