Gossip Girls

How many times a day do you gossip . . . .Either as a transmitter or receiver? Although you may think gossip is harmless, it can have some pretty knockout consequences. It did for four former employees of the town of Hooksett, Mew Hampshire, who were fired by the city council for gossiping about their boss. They larn the hard way that the gossip can cost you your job. The longtime employees were fired because one of the woman had use derogatory terms to describe the town administrator and because all of them had discussed a rumor that he was having an inter-group communication with a womanish subordinate.All four of the woman acknowledged feeling resentment toward the woman. Who worked in a curiously created position and was paid more than two of the employees, despite having less experience and seniority. Despite an appeal of their liberation by the four employees, the Hooksett council didnt budge and stated. These employees do not represent the best of the town of Hooksett a nd the false rumors, gossip and derogatory statement have contributed to a negative working environment and malcontent among their broncobuster employees. Despite national media attention and a petition signed by 419 residents, asking for the woman to be reinstated, the city council hasnt wavered on its decision. An attorney for the four women said that his clients were, legitimately questioning the conduct of their supervisor, and whether the female subordinate was getting preferential treatment. It almost cheapens it to call it gossip. It might have been idle, not particularly thoughtful, talk. still there was no harm intended.
