if it werent for the huge backlash from people on twitter about what he said he probably wouldnt have lost his job. is what he did stupid? yes, because he should have known how people can react to the slightest thing. does he deserve to be fired over this (IMO)? no

Oh c'mon banana! He really did deserve what was coming to him. Even if there wasn't a huge backlash I still think he should have been fired. That's unacceptable behavior in so many ways... If you were running MS, would you have wanted to have a senior employee acting that way? I sure as hell wouldn't want someone like him on my company.

i would have warned him or suspended him for a week or so, but actually firing him? thats big. and if he has a family thats even bigger.
