Non-profit worker who provoked fury with disrespectful Arlington photo tells how she lost her job, can't date and now lives in fear

For almost a year after Lindsey Stone was fired, she refused to leave the house.

Her former employer, Life (Living Independently Forever) dismissed her in 2012 over a picture that a coworker had taken of her giving the finger at Arlington National Cemetery.

The firing of both women came after an ardent online campaign that had flooded Life, which works with 'pretty high-functioning people with learning difficulties,' according to Stone, with emails.

In addition to the firing, it left a digital trail of bitter anger against Stone, including a now-unavailable Facebook page 'Fire Lindsey Stone,' which had than 19,000 Likes at one point.

We used to make fools of ourselves in front of our families and friends. If we did anything “legendary” the story would be passed around as if we were sitting around the evening fire in ancient times.

Now idiots post whatever comes to mind online, for the entire world to see and judge.

This is progress?

Maybe she can’t date because she is a hideous land whale.

“works with” is fairly vague but I am going to assume that she is not a therapist (occupational, speech, or other) since it would say so. This is most likely a person who staffs a “group home” for the mildly retarded. Cooks, cleans, drives to places, is a public companion to the residents.

Life, which works with 'pretty high-functioning people with learning difficulties,'

What does that mean?

It means that, instead of giving those with learning disabilities a boost up, IAW the place she worked for, she dropped down to their level and below....

I heard they had a long series of photos showing them doing the opposite of many signs in their travels.

So they specialized in acting like jackasses. Now their stupidity had a price.
