I hope she never really needs the police for anything.


"Hi, Ma'am, we're having trouble finding your home-------well we're over here---------that's all the way across town from you huh?--------someone is kicking in your door right now?-------well, stop drop and roll and we'll get there when we get there I guess.....hopefully..."

katygirl68, This went beyond stupid, to the level of evil.

She'll be lucky to get hired even at minimum wage for many years to come. Terrific that she'll learn a lesson while still young.

Katygirl68"What's to happen to her then?"

I don't care, but agree she should get no government aid for shooting herself.

Bandon"Yeh right....I'm sure she's sobbing into her pillow at night from losing a crap FF job."

No that will come from years unable to even get a minimum wage job. Her words will not go away, and since she was doing a menial job just requiring 4 limbs, those employees are a dime a dozen, so stores and fast food joints will hire the kids from her area who have not caused trouble via social media. No doubt what will occur is family will support her until they force her out after tiring of having to.

Subways are franchised anyway.

The Subway company does not make hiring decisions in Podunk, Mississippi.

I wonder how many cops frequent that place for lunch? Someone like her would probably spit on their sandwich.

Exactly. Even if I don't like what she said, what does that have to do with her fitness on the job? Since when are employees required to be 24/7 representatives of the company they work for even ON THEIR OWN TIME? I don't care that it's on social media, it doesn't matter, it's something she said on her own time and that to me is everything.

And yes, free speech legislation SHOULD cover such scenarios. If it were up to me, it would be fully 100% illegal, even in "right to work" state, to fire people for things they say on their own time. My time outside of work is MY time, and yes, a company SHOULD be MADE to employ such workers even if they don't like their off-work behavior so long as their actual work performance is up to snuff. They should only be evaluating workers for how good of a job one does, not what one's "image" is on their own time, especially for a minimum wage job. It's not like she was a spokesman like Lee Iacacco (years ago) and an executive to boot, a "face" of the company if you will.

If she hadnt posted wearing the subway uniform, it wouldnt of been so bad (for subway) but by doing that and saying things she did, she deserved to get fired. I would do the same thing if I owed a company and a worker did the same thing while advertising the brand.

Her comments were disgusting to me, those 2 officers should be alive today and her comments pretty much saying all cops are bad which is far from the truth.
