Question on not being fired - motivation issue

We have a local newscaster here that was caught cashing bad checks. He made a public apology and made restitution and wasn’t fired.

My respect for the TV station went way up for giving the guy a second chance. I think I’d feel the same way if I were an employee of theirs.

Food service at any level seems like that. Once you’re more valuable than a dishwasher, it seems like you have to have sex with the boss’s wife, in public, on the clock, and on the salad bar to get fired.
