Hitler and Goebbels walk into a bar and order two pints. The bar man, shocked, asks âAre you Hitler?â
âYesâ he responds. âGoebbels and I were cryogenically frozen after the war and now we are back. This time we are going to take over the world, kill 10 million Jews and 2 postmenâ
The barman is reeling, he stammers âwâwwwhy 2 postmen?â
Hitler turns around excitedly âSee Goebbels, I vos right! They still donât give a fuck about the jewsâ

its ok, martin and well known employment lawyer leo varadkar have given us carte blanche
leo said: âUnder Irish employment law, it is not okay to dismiss somebody because of their political views.â
Martin said: âEmployees generally should be allowed their individual viewpoints. We live in a democracy here, we tolerate debate, freedom of speech and freedom of opinionâ.
Nothing to do with at will employment, the only question is did the company have reasonable and legal grounds to dismiss her. Thereâs obviously a reason why 50% of WRC cases do not get a payout, maybe this will be one of them?.
We will see how it pans out and if the company even fight it, but offending 90% of your fellow employees publically using the company logo in your profile would seem reasonable grounds for dismissal.
again, youre missing the point: let me make it simple for you, i could go up to the secretary general of the department and punch her in the face and i was summarily dismissed with any sort of deviation from a disciplinary hearing or with any appearance of lack of fair procedures and an opportunity to put forward my case, then it would be unfair dismissal. what i did was most definitely gross misconduct but you still have to observe the legal requirements or its an unfair dismissal.
same applies in the wix case, even more so when you consider the urgings of the company for staff to have one view of the conflict.

Employees have very little rights in the good old states. You can arrive one morning to find your access badge not working and your belongings waiting for you

Itâs not just have they reasonable grounds to fire her, itâs also have they adhered to the correct dismissal process. Itâs not clear from the article I read if they did or not. If they didnât the WRC would almost certainly rule in her favour regardless of what she did.
you cant blame the poor chap for getting confused, sure he only gets 10 days holidays per year and hes encouraged not to take them.
Works both ways, an employee can decide not to show up tomorrow and give no notice.
Iâm sure heâs an expert on Irish employment law already Art.

Itâs more like twenty eyes for an eye 
If the reporting on the case is correct, she was spoken to by managemnet and took down the posts. She subsequently put up more posts. Sounds to me like they followed reasonable process, warned her about her conduct and gave her the chance to rectify it.
you think because they gave her a warning, that they can just summarily dismiss her? youd be very wrong. they still have to follow the process set out in the disciplinary procedures and also to follow irish employment law and fair procedures. which it sounds very much like they didnt
and everyone ends up blind

Even taking âeye for an eyeâ type justice, as described on the Babylonian stele, itâs supposed to be the perpetrator who suffers the retribution.
In this case, itâs women children, elderly, infirm and frightened innocents. And America cheering them on because thereâs an election looming.
Itâs like the morals of bill Clinton gleefully attaching himself to the execution of a man who believed in Santa Claus, (and who saved some of his last meal to eat later), just because he thought it gave him a better chance of election, and never giving it a second thought thereafter. Itâs like Obama celebrating the live extermination of Osama bin Laden,Psychopaths.

Did he really pull divisions off the Gaza border in advance of the attacks?
They were in West Bank I think it was reported
I wouldnât recommend walking out, but in the current tight labor market references arenât really much of an issue. Other than the details of prior roles and responsibilities, recruiters donât even ask about why you left prior employer, and HR generally steer clear as well and just ask for verification of employment.
Itâs a whole new world, employees have a lot of leverage if they have the desired skill sets.
