'That's what they get for running in front of buses, LOL': London bus driver, 38, who boasted on Facebook how he had run over two pedestrians is sacked •Chris Whelan, from Essex, bragged about running over pedestrians on Facebook •The 38-year-old bus driver was fired by his bosses for gross misconduct •He shared CCTV footage of a pedestrian being hit by a bus and laughed about it
Worth mentioning he was cleared in court of any wrong doing twice for running pedestrians over, so rightly he didn't lose his job over that. His biggest mistake was posting about it on FB, bus companies take a dim view of that as it puts them in a bad light especially with the moronic general public who assume bus drivers are all idiots, see 80% of the DM readers comments. 'Course the DM will love all this.
Bragging on social media, serves him right in the circumstances. Any employer would react the same where it brings them into disrepute. There are enough warnings about being careful what you put online as far as employment goes.
