Wee bit touchy, are we?

From Eat Your Vegetables, a new add to the list on the left, I see this tale of a Microsoft contractor who posted a picture of some Macs headed to the Microsoft campus and then heard those magic words: you're fired!

"..you have the right to say anything you want. Unfortunately, Microsoft has the right to decide that because of what you said, you're no longer welcome on the Microsoft campus."

Now, Microsoft is certainly within their rights to fire a contractor if they feel they're not "Microsoft material" ([cough] mindless corporate drones [cough]), but c'mon. Bit of an over-reaction. Someone's a little cranky. Someone needs a nap.

Wonder if the reaction would have been the same if he had taken a picture of a bunch of Dells.
