[QUOTE="jack the frog, post: 552197, member: 8086"] QUOTE(AUFrog @ Apr 28 2010, 12:59 PM) [snapback]551846[/snapback] I think you would have to be really naive (putting it nicely) to be on the fence here. One, he probably has a clause in his contract that requires certain conduct. Two, his comments could do damage to his employer and the employer doesn't have to suffer so he can make his comments. While he's allowed to say just about what ever he wants, whenever and wherever he wants, his rights don't mean there won't be consequences for his speech. Plus, how many people were outraged by his NBA comments? Did people listen to him and think, "hey, this guy's about to blow up the NBA offices?" Probably not. The difference is probably obvious to most people. I would guess that more, if not most employers have some conduct clause for most real jobs these days, even positions outside the public eye, if they are serious about the company name and reputation. At my former brokerage house our public site memberships were reviewed often. I know Schlumberger can fire you for getting a seatbelt ticket in your own vehicle on your own time. They have a safety emphasis obviously. [/QUOTE]
