Facebook hurts

“Medewerkers Virgin Atlantic ontslagen na kritiek via Facebook

LONDEN – Dertien leden van het boordpersoneel van Virgin Atlantic zijn ontslagen omdat ze op de netwerksite Facebook kritiek hadden geuit op de luchtvaartmaatschappij. Dat heeft Virgin meegedeeld.” Source

Auwsj… Let me translate this in short : Virgin fired some employees because they had posted negative comments about Virgin on Facebook. Just to show you how far Facebook can integrate in your life. Even your boss could check your Facebook-profile and read everything you posted. Yeah yeah and I know all about the ‘Privacy’-tools too, but I still think that you can get to it via via anyway, that’s the ‘advantage’ of networking.

Too bad for those employees. A little bright side for them is that they probably got a lot of comments on their new status update : “Fired because of facebook”. LOL.
