Chef Jim Posted September 10, 2014 Share Posted September 10, 2014 So being patriotic in a government job gets you suspended. Fanfreakingtastic! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B-Man Posted September 10, 2014 Share Posted September 10, 2014 As a manager myself, I am very sympathetic to the policy that everybody abides by the same rules, but I also hate the "I can't use my own judgement" excuse that many hide behind. The "official" explanation of why the U.S. flag included is suspect. The four suspended firefighters said they were told that the order was issued because of racial discord on the department. The four, who include two white firefighters, a black firefighter, and a fourth firefighter who is a Cuban émigré, said no such problems exist.

IDBillzFan Posted September 10, 2014 Share Posted September 10, 2014 There's something you don't see every day. The Purple People Beaters (SEIU) making an argument to KEEP the flag up. I hear Bill Murray, "...human sacrifice, dogs and cats living together, MASS HYSTERIA!." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doc Posted September 11, 2014 Share Posted September 11, 2014 Racial discord means you can't display the flag? If you don't like the flag and what it represents, get the !@#$ out of the country! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
