Job Opening In The Tri-Cities?

Suspended? Suspended? That's crap!!!! A lot of us have been fired for a whole lot less than that. Poor old Dave Carter got fired because he was arrested for drug (marijuana) charges back in 1995 or 1996, and he was eventually cleared of the charges. He didn't get his job back. Sorry, but using marijuana for personal use may be illegal, but it doesn't hurt anyone other than the user, and even that may be a stretch. And then to get cleared of it, well, this makes this story even more angering. This guy exposed himself in front of some kids and then propositions a couple of cops? He's quite likely a pedophile.

Some of this in this business didn't do anything illegal, but got fired for non-illegal reasons, but this guy is arrested and just suspended? Sorry, that just irritates me more than somewhat.

Sure, we all make mistakes, but a vast majority of people in this world have the common sense that God gave them not to expose themselves to some kids and then to proposition some cops. WZAP should've fired this guy cause this is different than getting picked up for possession of some pot or some other victimless crime. You may say in this country that people are innocent until proven guilty, and that's true. But others have been fired before being convicted of a crime. This preacher didn't and that should anger all of us. I may be wrong, but this is my story and I'm sticking to it.

Hey...that's the paper for you. Word is WZAP fired the guy last weekend. SO there you go.
 
Thanks for the correction, TK. And yeah, that is the paper for you. Sorry for the rant.
