You can't just repeat yourself when it comes to talking shit. Now come on, monkey man, I know you can fling poo better than that!
    AN insult? Hardly. Just admiring your self announced success.

      Straw poll. How many posters on this thread have been responsible for hiring/firing of employees?

              Thanks. I find all of this grousing about this guy losing his job pretty damn funny. Utah is an "at will" state, meaning that I can hire and fire at-will(without cause). So if BYU wanted to fire him for wearing a black belt with brown shoes, they don't have to explain themselves.

                Nobody was arguing about the law, just BYU's stated policy.

                  I did.

                  Moreover, no one, to date, has stated the actual policy other than a vague quotation in the article. As I suggested, the actual policy is likely founded in the law. The assumption being made here is that the comment by BYU is a personnel matter. I don't see it. The statement is a response to an accusation. That the accusation comes from an employee does not imbue the statement with the characteristics of a personnel matter. Beyond responding to the accusation by noting it is neither accurate nor complete, BYU does NOT make any comments about the employee's personnel matters. Anyone can be a liar, not just your employees, and the statement by BYU does not address any employment duties or the termination, it only responds to the false claims.

                  Finally, without a clear understanding of the specific policy involved, which none of us have, it is speculation born of seeming bias to conclude that BYU acted unethically. OTOH, it was water tight. So what do I know?
