O.K. so the news spin cycle seems to have stopped on Illinois just now, where all sorts of gnarly things seem to regularly go down, especially in the situation ethics sort of realm. I guess this is why Dan Fogelberg sang “Illinois, I’m your boy” but moved to Maine to live out his last days. I was reading the report on the 10 Worst Work Stories of the Year when I came across the following—-<\/p>\n
It seems that there were two security guards who worked at an Illinois Neiman Marcus store (or as I prefer to call it, a Needless Mark-up store). It seems they were video taped having sex on the job, and were fired. But did they feel ashamed and apologize to their employers for their behavior whilst at work??? OH NOOO. <\/p>\n
Instead they sued Neiman Marcus for invasion of privacy and unfair termination for sexual activity! They claim the store manager ‘secretly’ video taped their tryst– I guess its an invasion of privacy case, and then the manager shared the tape with others, including, apparently, wait for it, a nationwide online data base of security personnel. I guess that career in security jobs is looking a bit insecure now for those two. <\/p>\n
Now I’m telling you this story with a disclaimer—it came from a Chicago newspaper, the same one that blew the whistle on their erstwhile governor. So, consider the source, some might say. All I can say is, this puts a new twist on the old ‘I saw Momma kissin’ Santa Claus complaint’. <\/p>\n
