9 Virtual March Protesters were just relieved of their jobs here at my company.

Posted on 02/26/2003 1:15:34 PM PST by SirFishalot

LMAO. I just got out of an emergency meeting with the sales manager here at work. He told us that he just fired 9 people in his department because he caught them participating in that farce today using company time and equipment. That is considered theft and thus leads to immediate termination at my company. He is able to monitor all of their keystrokes, pageviews, faxes, and phonecalls and they know it yet the dummies still did it.

Here are some of the highlights he gave us for just todays traffic.

-There were a total of around 1200 phone calls to Washington DC numbers today. We average 5 per day.

-One employee alone was responsible for over 300 of them.

-One lady faxed over 400 faxes to Washington numbers.

-There was over 5000 emails to .gov addresses from just that group.

-2 of them were caught actually running websites from here that are devoted to the protest today.

-3 of them hadn't even made one work related call today.

It was actually pretty funny to watch the guy walk them out because he walked in the office with two guys I've never seen before and asked for the following employees to stand up, then read off there names. He asked them to follow him up to the lunchroom for a meeting. The two guys followed them all up. A little later, one of those guys comes back with a supervisor and our IT guy. They took the personal effects from each of the cubes and put them on a cart. The IT guy took the hard drive from each of their computers also.

He told us in the meeting that the two guys were police officers who basically documented everything and escorted them off of the property with the warning that they would be charged with trespassing if they step foot back on the property.

Looks they will have lots of time to protest now. LOL

Dummies.

What would make this even funnier is if your company is a defense contractor. :-)

I guess that leaves them cardboard signs and crayons, provided they can scrounge them out of the dumpster without getting caught in theft by dump picking.

Hehehe...how gratifying. Some of the numbers you've offered seem suspect but, if these folks were using company time and assets to entertain their fantasies, then good riddance.

Oh please say that your boss wrote washington back to tell them all of those faxes, phone calls etc., were the results of THEFT.

Too bad this wasn't recorded and shown on CNN, MSNBC, FOX and most especially CBS! Greatest thing I've heard all day.

This is how almost all the left's "protests" are done. A few people make a LOT of noise, then they inflate the numbers to make it look big. And they almost always do it on someone else's dime...
