I hereby apologize for not being able to resist that headline.
Employees at a pizza-making plant in Ireland recently landed themselves in hot water after viewing porn at work. However, the workers argue that their firings weren’t about porn as much as they were about revenge. They and other members of their union are now planning a protest at the factory, which is located in County Kildare.
The company said three workers lost their jobs after viewing “adult material” and breaching the company’s internet policy. But their union claims they are being scapegoated.
“One of our members received an email from outside the plant and was essentially dismissed for receiving an email,” said TEEU general secretary designate, Eamon Devoy.
Over 40 workers went on strike last month after the workers lost their jobs.
The TEEU said the sackings were linked to a separate incident when the company sent a confidential file about seven redundancies to a worker by mistake.
Sounds suspicious to me, all right. Although perhaps this is a good time to remind everyone to keep their porn-viewing habits confined to the comfort of your own bedrooms.
