Comments on: Atlanta airport worker out of job after egging Saints bus http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2012/12/04/atlanta-airport-worker-out-of-job-after-egging-saints-bus/ ProFootballTalk on NBCSports.com Sun, 26 May 2013 00:29:11 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.com/ By: mznewy http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2012/12/04/atlanta-airport-worker-out-of-job-after-egging-saints-bus/#comment-2159029 Wed, 05 Dec 2012 13:29:10 +0000 http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=1572555#comment-2159029 What those who are saying it’s “not a big deal” don’t seem to get is that it may seem like a “harmless prank” but it is deeper than that. He was in a secured area of the airport. If he could throw eggs, what was to stop him from planting a bomb? He went from a prankster to a security risk. If he had thrown the eggs on the other side of the fence then it would have been a “harmless prank”.

“Do you think this guy will be unemployed long in Atlanta?”
—————————–
No, he’ll be in charge of the Falcons front office very shortly.

Naah, he’ll be flipping burgers for less money somewhere else.

1.Falcons fan throws eggs on Saints bus.
2.Falcons beat said Saints and end the Saints hopes of making the playoffs.
3. Falcons fan gets fired for throwing eggs.

Do you think this guy will be unemployed long in Atlanta?

____________________________________

Actually, THIS is what is wrong with America. This guy was at a place of business, and decided to take part in an action he knew was wrong. He was found out, and was held responsible for his actions. That’s called life and being an adult. People like YOU who want this guy to be let off because ‘its just kids being kids’ or “I’m a falcons fan, so I am ok with it” are the ones who need a wake up call. I am a Packer fan, and if the story posted above about the fans mooning the other teams bus, that action is juvenile and inappropriate also, and if they are season ticket holders, they should be punished too. No responsibility anymore because everyone has gone soft, THAT is America’s problem. Well, that and people who know nothing of economics, health care or balancing checkbooks trying to run our economy, health care, and budgets.

So they should not have been fired? Ok, so next time you go to a fast food retaraunt, I hope an employee throws eggs at your car, and I hope there is a story about it, so I can comment on it, and state that America needs her brass balls back….An employee throws eggs at a patrons vehicle, and then the employer has the nerve to fire that employee?

And you lose a day’s wages as well.

He’s humiliated, the bus is clean, and he’s “fined” for being a doofus.

I wonder why this behavior is deemed acceptable. Is it because the fans involved drink alcohol during the game.

There are a group of Packer fans that moon the visiting team’s bus after every Packer home win. This is what lead to the Randy Moss goal-post incident in the 2004 playoffs years ago.

So a sober fan eggs a visiting team bus and rightly gets fired. But drunken fans show equally juvenile behavior, and get to keep their season tickets. Go figure.

If this was in Philly this guy would’ve gotten a promotion, haha. Seriously folks, lighten up. Just because this happened at the airport doesn’t make it a matter of National security.

It’s not like he did it when it was sitting at someone’s house. This was at an airport… where there are cameras everywhere.

There is a difference between high school hijinks and being a professional employee…especially in a high security environment.
