Psst: your company can fire you for things you do in public which they believe reflects poorly on their judgement of employing you. Once hired, you are not guaranteed a job, regardless of the stupid things you say in life.

If I went to a bar with a company shirt on, got drunk, got arrested, got my mug shot put on the news in my company's shirt - uh, yep, I'd be fired. It just works that way, and thank God it does.

I understand what Juan was doing - giving an overly honest and very personal glimpse into his knee jerk reaction upon seeing something that makes him uncomfortable. But, that's why God gave us lips - to keep those impulsive thoughts in our heads and our person safely employed. In my household, we call it "the filter". The filter is good.

Upon reading the story that he was fired, I thought to myself, "Fox will hire him by the end of the week." It was the end of the day, actually.
