Temp employee online all the time, gets fired -- "City of Toledo officials say Scott Leo, operating with an Internet identity he called 'Sassy Sarah,' was using his city computer to access an online discussion group hosted by sportswrath.com - apparently hundreds of times a day."
"The picture that pops up on Sassy Sarah's identity page is that of an attractive blonde, and Sassy Sarah often commented from the perspective of being a female."

Hey,
I noticed that my misspellings have gone way up and you wanna know why?

It ain't early onset stupidness, nope, it's my shitty keyboard. I gotta go beg the me in IT to get me a new one without a sticking "y" key.

Eh, the "dude" got "his" "work" "done", so why complain about "his" posting.

so why complain about "his" posting

Exactly:
"Mr. Williams said the reports he had are that Mr. Leo did a good job....Mr. Williams said he spoke to the intern's supervisor, who said she was not aware of his Internet use, and was satisfied with his performance because he did the work he was assigned to do."
A busybody -- not even from Ohio -- outed Scott Leo:
"Mike Brubaker, a resident of Tennessee who tipped off the city about Sassy Sarah, said his son brought the Sassy Sarah e-mails to his attention.

'My son comes to me and says, "This person works for the city of Toledo," ' said Mr. Brubaker. 'He said, "Are you allowed to look at sports Web sites while you're at work?"'"

A shiver went down the collective spines of MeFites and MeChas everywhere.

I wonder why they removed him from the forum site? I initially thought that it may be to avoid the slashdot/mefi effect, but that can't be it since people will still go to look anyway. It can't be that he was posing as a female, could it? Imagine how well that go over on mefi as reason for bannage.

Also, anyone seen the pic he was using?

the article says he "resigned," not that he got fired (although that's kind of the implication). It also refers to him as an "intern" but says he was provided by a temp agency- which I suppose is possible, but I've never heard of it. Seems like maybe they don't quite have their facts straight?

Also, Mike Brubaker is a huge turd.

<groan> - I was going to make a quip about hitler youth or that this kid'll end up working for the government, but I won't. I'm just going to say, "Kid, tattletails get what they deserve."
