It's an intern with already culturally deviant behavior, which they can replace in a heartbeat and they cussed out a superior what can you expect.

An intern at NASA told Homer Hickam to suck their dick and balls. Of course they got fired you absolute fucking mong.

The upsetting part of this story is that this degenerate furfag is still alive.

>>9950706
>telling Homer Hickam to suck your balls
kek. this cant be real

yeah no value was lost here.

>>9950721
It's very real, and a promising young scientist has had their career ruined

>>9950731
Being a furry should have automatically disqualified it. The fact that it even got the internship shows how low NASAs standards have fallen.

>>9950706

So NASA control rooms aren't like TV control rooms?

I mean this terribly unfunny culture of being edgy for the sake of edginess is a cancer that should be excised. Everyone talks like they're still children in high school. It's pretty sad what's happened.

>>9950731
You seem to be framing this like the intern was some kind of victim. They aren't a victim. They did this to themselves by telling an executive to suck their dick and balls. How fucking stupid can you be.

>>9950706
Isn't that the October Sky guy lmao

>>9950747
She hadn't even started her internship yet, why do you feel the need to discipline someone publicly on twitter? Just reach out to them privately and direct them to NASA's code of conduct

>>9950760
Everyone in the thread is against you. You lost this debate.

If someone can't control themselves enough to control their tongue, can they really be trusted to control themselves enough to show up to work on time? Maybe. But they have to take that chance on you when there are other candidates who are more professional.

>>9950760
Again, they told an exec to suck their dick and balls. Professionalism is out the window at that point. Who fucking cares how they got fired. You can't seriously be defending this idiot right now.

>>9950769
So if you had landed the job of your dreams and went on social media to celebrate you wouldn't be provoked by some random old guy tone policing you in your own comment section?

>>9950760
Because a publicly funded entity has additional responsibilities to the public including promoting the notion of common courtesy. I know that notion profoundly bothers the edgelords that post here which makes it even better.

>>9950772
>i lack professionalism, rationality, and have no clue what politeness or courtesy is - the fucking post
shut the fuck up retard

>>9950772
I do not have a single sentence in my social media that is disrespectful just for the sake of being an edgy faggot, so no.

Instead of throwing a temper tantrum like the children they are, this should rather be a teachable moment for all you edgy faggots out there. You want a good career? Then grow the fuck up.

>>9950778
Her initial post was not disrespectful. Hickam initiated the conflict for no reason whatsoever.

OMG guys. You won't believe what happened. A week ago I got a call from FUCKING SPACEX offering to interview me for a paid internship. Everything when great and once I was out in the parking lot I couldn't contain my exciment and shouted "FUCK YEAH" than this fucking basedboy approached me and told me to keep it quiet so I told him to suck my dick and balls to which he replied "well, I'm Elon Musk and you're fired". Can you believe it?! I wasn't even IN the building. I can say whatever I want!

I dunno about you guys, but I ially go to the profile of unfamiliar people who comment on my tweets to gain some context before replying

>>9950794
*but I usually
I hate phoneposting

>>9950790
Hickam might have initiated a "conflict" if you want to call it so, but the person who escalated it in an unreasonable way and beyond the norms of common decency was that roastie

>>9950790
>b-but he started it
You're a child.

>>9950790
Whatever. You're just making yourself sound like a big loser.
>THEY FIRED ROSEANNE! FIRE SOMEONE ON THE LEFT OR THIS IS PERSECUTION
>Disney: ok
>w- wait. No, what we really wanted was for her to be rehired because m- muh freedums of speach!
too late get used to it

>>9950799
>roastie
furry mtf tranny*

>>9950719

Hate to break it to you, but furries run STEM

>>9950731
> promising young scientist
There are thousands of other young scientists who arent socially retarded and risk besmirching NASA with their inability to function as a polite human being.
>>9950772
No because A) I dont use social media B) even if I did I wouldnt go around telling people I dont know to "suck my dick and balls"

>>9950804
I thought it was a roastie using dick and balls figuratively

>>9950706
i'm conflicted, he's a fag for saying that, but she also totally deserves what came to her desu

>>9950760
> discipline
She was never employed so it isnt discipline, its choosing not to associate with someone because of their actions.

>>9950731
>didn't get an internship
>career ruined
lol no

also it's pretty reasonable she got fired imo

>>9950706

Why does everyone in this thread have a stick up their ass?

From the guy:
http://homerhickamblog.blogspot.com/2018/08/social-media.html

>>9950851
This doesn't change anything does it. Xe was still fired for xer language

>>9950851
Doesn't change a thing.

>>9950851
Because they're freightened and bitter little boys.
She should never have lost her internship because of losing her temper on social media

>>9950851
#doitforNASA

>>9950867
Social media is a cesspool that should not exist

>>9950867
It was probably and affirmative action hire in the first place

>>9950863
>>9950866

Right, but it wasn't Homer Hickam who notified NASA. It was the fact that NASA was monitoring the hashtag and her friends drew attention to the confrontation with that.

Do you really think that my employer should be able to monitor my social media and fire me every time I say fuck?

>>9950803
Fuck off /tv/

>>9950881
Your employer should be able to do anything as long as it abides by the contract it signed with you. Public employers should be held to an even higher standard.

>>9950851
There was nothing wrong with firing her IMO, but this is pretty based. Hickam going out of his way and helping out a young scientist.

>>9950893
Pretty much this.

>>9950706
lol. 2nd thoughts on their diversity hire? long gone are the days of "putting a man on the moon" I suppose...

This thread reminds me how many high schoolers there are on this board who have never had a real job.

>>9950897
Perhaps it should remind you of the 200 or so more competent people that were overlooked in favor of a quota hire

>>9950706

Bahahaha absolutely deserved

>>9950706
What an obnoxious faggot. He deserved getting fired desu.
>>9950809
This is the real redpill

>telling your boss's boss's boss's boss's boss to suck your cock dude
>firing someone over retarded social media posts
>being an autistic furry
>being a no-fun-allowed boomer who can't handle bad words
>having your real life identity connected to your gay furry twitter account
the more you look at it the stupider it gets

>>9950881
Yes, when you essentially said it to said employer's face and there are standards to keep.

>>9950881
Stop trying to make it sound like she's a victim. She's not. She publicly soiled the image of a government-funded company and then insulted an executive of said company. It's all her fault. Nobody was monitoring her social media, NASA was monitoring its own public image (i.e. the word NASA). And yes, your employer should be able to fire you every time you directly insult a superior.

>>9950706
>employee that you recruited because you needed their skills?
An "intern" with "mediocre experience" because NASA needed their "diversity".
There isn't a shortage of people wanting to become interns at NASA.
If the person is just going to state their affiliation with NASA and say "suck my dick and balls" to a superior in one tweet, it makes NASA look bad and leaves all of the people that weren't accepted as interns wondering how such a goober got accepted.
NASA has a reputation/image to uphold in the eyes of both the public and business partners.
This "child" failed before the first day by making such a rookie mistake.
It's not the first time someone got fired by being an edgy sperglord on social media.
This one isn't ready for the real world yet.

>>9950706

Furries ... truly sick sad people!

>Isn't this a really petty and honestly disgusting reason to fire an employee that you recruited because you needed their skills?

Possibly but you also have to remember said potential employee will also be handling sensitive information eventually. Not only do you want someone with the necessary skills to the job but also the necessary discretion to prevent the integrity of information being damage.

Outburst on social media like that can ultimately lead up to accidental breach information or compromise of the company. Unlike Trump not everyone involved in government affairs can be undisciplined loudmouths who spout whatever they want.

>>9950706

What an idiot, this is why you dont make diversity hires. Nasa sucks ass anyway

>>9950706
this is one of the funniest images i've ever seen

>>9950706
In this day and age, diversity (what people look like) is the reason people are hired, and social media (what people say) is the reason they are fired. It seems like people are no longer hired and fired based on talent, skill, natural interest, etc. Perhaps there is actually merit to the "its not what you know, its who you know" system of the past.

>>9950706
It's a fucking intern, there are no "skills" that nasa needed.
autistic fucks, why do you hate social skills so much?
>i went into work and gave my boss the middle finger on the first day, why did they fire me? can't even handle a hand gesture!
to be quite honest, it shows a lack of judgment, i'd fire his ass too

>>9950881
>why was NASA was monitoring #NASA?
The world may never know.

>>9950950
lol. no shit. probably the top brass literally spends their whole day doing this.

>>9950881
>every time i say fuck
your boss tells you "stop swearing"
you turn to him and say "suck my dick and balls"
are you autistic?

>>9950706
>Telling the guy from October Sky to suck your dick and balls
>Being an intern at NASA and not knowing who Homer Hickman is
I'm all for the boomer hate but I'm glad that affirmative action piece of garbage got fired

>>9950974

>>9950706
t. the retard furry that got blasted here

>>9950706
>...because this is 2018

How in the fuck does that follow?

>>9950771
>Everyone in the thread is against you.
They're clearly being ironic.

>>9950997
I think she's pointing out that people just 15 years ago or so would've a hard time believing that you would choose to have a furry avatar on an unanonymous account connected to your work and using that account to tell your employer to suck your balls

>>9951006
>just 15 years ago or so

>>9950706
>Be a total idiot.
>Get what idiots get.
>Act surprised on 4chan

Nothing to see here.

>needed their skills
>intern

Pick one.

>>9950706
>She
>Dick and balls

Something is out of whack here...

>>9951087
Don't diss femcock
but yeah the intern deserved it.

>>9950731
Promising people know when to keep their piehole shut

>>9951081
I liked that one too. Anyone in this thread who equated being an intern to "having valuable skills that NASA requires" is a fucking joke, interns are literally the most replaceable part of any institution since there's always a surplus.

>>9950706
>flagrantly disrespect senior member of NASA
>get fired
>he dindu nuffin
typical shart

>>9950706
Is she autistic or something, how can someone be this braindead?

>>9950731
It ruined its own career.

>>9950706
Probably watched too much TBBT and fell for the i am so special meme. This young people need to realize that they are human resources in the industry, they are not indispensable and can be changed. Deserved specially for bragging

>>9950706
talking like that he was probably nigger soo this >>9950722

>>9950706
>being an intern
>mouthing off to your boss's boss
talk about having a complete lack of common sense, absolutely deserved to be "fired" if you can even call it that.

>>9951001
>making excuses for an idiot

Another woman oppressed by a white male. Fuck the patriarchy!

every time one of these people undeservedly is given a 2nd chance, someone else never gets their first chance.

>>9950706

"Furries" are in fact morons. You can see it in her comportment. A scientist furry can barely keep itself in check. They are lower life forms. Not even human.

(Lol in all seriousness, why be a furry in physics? If you want to transfur (pun fucking intended) your brain into an anthropomorphic creatures body you must do it through bio technology.)

I cannot wait for humanity to schism into a new species. It will be like Warhammer 40k come to life. Abhumans.
All we need is for one mad bastard among us to make...
the...
offer....

Bwahahahahahha...
BWHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHHAHHAHHHAHAHAHAHAAHHHAAHAHAH!

>>9951251
this is a low quality post

>>9950790
her initial post started with "EVERYONE SHUT THE FUCK UP I WORK FOR NASA" and that tweet is what ended up getting her fired in the end, retard. Hickam confirmed that in a blog post. NASA didn't even know until "her" friends started tweeting at NASA and they found out what she initially posted. If she would have just deleted her tweet and listened to him she'd still have an internship today.

>>9950909
That comic is good, not even a furry

Yet another pointed lesson on why you should never touch any social media of any form with a 10 foot pole.
