Pardon me if this post or something similar have been created before now. Well this post was inspired by a news from Football Tweet on X concerning a Swansea City FC employee who got sacked for betting on the club he works in to lose for about 130 times. It's so unfortunate he lost his jobs, Well some people were in his support and claimed it's not his fault for the club to keep losing and the man was only trying to make extra cash, while there were others who claimed it was betrayal and he should've supported the club as a true fan. Left for me, I feel he's not a fan of the club and just an employee and I'll do same if I were not a fan of the club I work for moreover the club kept losing and he seized the opportunity to make extra cash from their misfortune. Well I never betted against the club i support I'll rather bet on other matches. However this brings us back to the question, would you bet against the club you support ?
I didn't see this as an issue here, the question we should have asked does the company club forbid employees from betting on their own club? If No, then the sack is justified because you can't go against the club policy, you offend them and they have the right to do and undo, the person cross the line to be honest and it's very wrong professionally because most of other people wouldn't like to work with her any more.
However, if there is no any rules about it, then the company is wrong for sacking her, they are very wrong and only trying to ease their losses on innocent employee who is just trying to make money. I though gambling is making predictions of an outcome and he was sure that the company is going to lose, what's there to make predictions and win some money, it's nothing to be sacked about unless there is something the company's is not telling the public.
