West Allis dispatcher fired for Facebook post

Posted on June 2, 2010 and seen 649 times

Dana Kuchler was fired after 21 years as a dispatcher. Kuchler posted on her personal Facebook page that she was "addicted to Vicodin, Adderall, quality marijuana, MD 20/20 grape and absinthe."

Kuchler claims it was just a joke, but the West Allis Police Chief fired her.  City attorney, Scott Post, says the chief "felt that the things that were said on Facebook reflected adversely on her individually and the police department and affected her ability to perform her duties as a dispatcher.”

8 Luxemburg-Casco students disciplined for Facebook drinking photos

Posted on February 19, 2010 and seen 1850 times

Quote from the principal, Steve Okoniewski:

“I mean, Facebook is — anybody can get on it. It isn’t that tough. … These kids have to understand that within social networking, that there is no real privacy out there. And no. 2 is that here they are — every one of these kids had signed a co-curricular code of conduct.”

Insert your own comment here about:
  1. Kids shouldn't drink underage
  2. Kids shouldn't put pictures of themselves doing illegal activities on Facebook / the internet
  3. Kids should get 2nd chances, especially if they participate in school activities
  4. Schools have no business monitoring what happens on Facebook, et al.
