We all say or post personal comments from time to time; in fact, social media encourages us to express our every thought, often for the whole world to see.\u00a0 However, before you post your latest status, take a moment to consider potential repercussions.\u00a0 We are seeing more and more stories of people being reprimanded, or worse, terminated, for their social media activity, even when it is occurring in their personal time.\u00a0 Case in point, prior to President Donald Trump\u2019s speech to Congress on Tuesday, Daniel Grilo was a principal at a financial firm in Chicago.\u00a0 The following day, he was unemployed.<\/p>\n

The reason for termination?\u00a0 A Tweet referring to the widow of a Navy Seal who was killed during a raid in Yemen.\u00a0 \u201cSorry Owens’ wife, you’re not helping yourself or your husband’s memory by standing there and clapping like an idiot. Trump just used you.”<\/em><\/p>\n

His Tweet immediately sparked responses and controversy across multiple social media platforms.\u00a0 It didn\u2019t take long for people to discover his place of employment, Liberty Advisor Group, flooding them with complaints, ultimately leading to Grilo being fired.<\/p>\n

Liberty Advisor Group released a statement condemning Grilos\u2019 comments for being inconsistent with the company\u2019s values and the unyielding respect it has for members of our nation\u2019s Armed Forces.<\/p>\n

While some may support Grilo\u2019s position and believe he was unjustly terminated, especially given that his comments were not directed at his employer, the fact remains he lost his job for little more than 140 characters, a few retweets, and some likes.\u00a0 Which in my opinion, isn\u2019t worth anyone\u2019s livelihood.<\/p>\n
