Don't criticise the government or you'll get the sack.

Don't criticise the government or you'll get the sack.

The author of the Fake Stephen Conroy blog and Twitter Leslie Nassar's employer haven't sacked him, however: "We have started a disciplinary process against him."

This sounds like the lead up to being sacked. If he farts off key in the future he will get the sack. I can't imagine that he will be considered for promotion.

It would be hard to argue that Mr Nassar's actions were the wisest move but did it actually affect his job? How did it stop him from doing his job?

Blogs and Twitters are a conversation, not a publication. I don't look for facts on blogs or Twitters. Only an idiot would see a blog or Twitter as anything more than a personal opinion. Sure thousands of people might read it but blogs becoming popular or even having visitors is very much the exception to the rule. Bitching about the government, Telstra and the boss is part of the cherished Australian psyche. It's the modern world way of stuffing jolly jumbucks into tucker bags. Who are Telstra to punish people for that.
