Twitter Takes Down Another Good Man!!!
June 2nd 2009
My girl over at Straightfromthea.com posted a story that I think everyone really needs to read. I know how yall like to talk on the phone while at work, but for every action there is a reaction.. This is what she said:
“Twitter recently got a MARTA Train Driver in trouble after one of it’s users twitpic’d (i.e. took a photo) of him alledgedly texting while operating the train. Talk about BIG BROTHER is watching!! Nowadays, there’s not much you can get away with without someone behind you sneaking to take a photo to post it online. It also appears that the AJC is following the route of us bloggers and are quickly picking up newstips from the social network. I know…it’s really not that unusual at all, but I just found it amusing that the reporter even referenced MARTA’s twitter statement as their official response:”
A statement that MARTA posted on Twitter following the AJC’s inquiries added: “The safety and security of our patrons is MARTA’s first and foremost concern. Texting while operating a MARTA vehicle is against company policy. MARTA takes the allegations implied by this photo of a train operator texting while operating a train very seriously … appropriate disciplinary actions will be taken upon the conclusion of the investigation.” (source)
