Ok, so I'll stop double posting when Casey stops posting such excellent stuff in HIS blog...

This is off the friggen hook.  

UR FIRD LOL SCKS 2 B U


Nothing says '21st Century' like e-pink slips. A jewelry shop in Cardiff, England sacked an employee at home with a migraine. With a text message.

Katy Tanner thinks they should have told her to her face; the company defends that it tried repeatedly to contact her, including through her boyfriend. Wow. Way to put him in hot water...

The message itself was not abbreviated: "We will not require your services anymore...Thank you for your time with us."

Ian Besbie, the store director, supplanted that texting was part of "youth culture". Wow. Again.

I know one or two people *cough* McCall! *cough* that live to text-message, but this is ridiculous.

Wow.
 
Holy Crap.  Like I told Casey, this is both unbelievably heinous and ridiculously incredible.  We have almost certainly hit the ceiling with this one.   If I was doing this Colbert-style, I think this would have to get BOTH a 'Wag of the Finger' and a 'Tip of the Hat'.

Oh em eff gee. That is fucking ricockulous. I won't have to worry about that at my place of employment. They don't even know how to USE a cell phone, let alone text me. Hahahahaha.
