WFLA 8 ^

Wait til congress gets involved ...they will screw it up..

Read.My.Fax. :D

[Old Teufel Hunden]

Is relieved of duties mean fired or does that mean he goes on hiatus until this all quiets down and he can go back to teaching there?

[fella]

"Storey has been relieved of his duties" but not fired. In other words the horrible punishment of paid vacation until the news cycle moves on to something else.

Nobody I work with is a facebook friend. There is a reason for that.

Same here...I think it's a very good policy. Mine is not almost exclusively family only but even so I'm thinking of deleting my account.

[Maskot]

Thumbs up! No doubt the university is just reacting to this tool being caught.

[Maskot]

Depends on what day is it is.

Don’t be a hater! /sarc

That is wise. No one is perfect. Someone is always waiting to pounce, no matter where.

Not saying that what he said is OK; just saying that the universities encourage these types of views and people who hold them, and now that many universities are suffering financial downturns because of leftist social media comments and videos, they are starting to throw "offenders" (that their pc social marxism created) to the wolves.

[Maskot]

Deleted mine three days (yes, three) days after signing up. It took me that long to realize what a colossal waste of space fake book is.

Did Hillary voters deserve the hurricane? In Houston she won 53-41 per cent

I called the university this a.m. and told them they pissed off the wrong state.

[robroys woman]

My ex-boss left the company and it appears she may have been fired. She is a mother of three and got a divorce a few months before that.

Shortly after she left I got a facebook friend request from her.

Her lesbian live in lover still works here. There is no way I could accept that request.

[Col Frank Slade]

This jerk looks like a young Michael Moore.

Thinks like him too..

[Albion Wilde]

I understand. I’ve had to explain to my conservative friends who work for the RNC or state/local GOP committees that I can’t friend them on LinkedIn. I’d never work another day in my field.

[robroys woman]

I can friend in Linkedin because I never post anything there. It’s all strictly endorsing skills.

[Albion Wilde]

If some of my colleagues read who my linked people are, and that they are officials with the GOP, I’d be dead to them, and I’m an independent contractor. So I just keep my mouth shut about politics.

[robroys woman]

Gotcha.

I’m a contractor too, but all of my contacts on Linkedin are simply people I’ve worked with, and none of it was political. So I can get away with it.

Interestingly, at my current contract, after about a year the folks here fessed up that they checked out my Facebook page and Linkedin page. But my Facebook page is locked down tight and my linkedin one is pure professional.

[JimRed]

The fact that he is so emotionally and mentally unstable and so filled with hate for those who disagree with his politics that he would make such a post is evidence that he’s unfit to teach students at a Florida State funded university.

Small correction.

[doug from upland]

It didn't take long for him to find another job.

Well, Ann Coulter mentioned Houston being punished for electing a lesbian mayor first.
