You do realize, that you are suggesting we do "eye for an eye" right? She decided to drive a tack with a sledge hammer, and you are calling for us to do the same? I do think she is wrong, but attempting to do the same to her makes us no better than them.

Firing a bad employee is not "the same" as sending someone to federal prison for 30 years or hounding them to suicide.

So in your view, employees should never be fired no matter how bad they screw up?

I agree she should be fired. We just need to recognize we are doing the exact same thing they are.
