I did not know she did this while on the job. I was of a mind to condemn the calls for her dismissal, as we see examples of stupidity and callousness daily.

I guess in the final analysis I might fire her, not because she did something this unpopular and disrespectful, but because her judgement could not be trusted to properly care for those in her charge. If she were 20 and not 30 years old I might be tempted to just counsel and discipline.

Yep. Much too much ado about far too little. Gives a whole new meaning to stuck on stupid.

Feeling the need to even have a sign, asking for silence and respect at such a location, says a lot about the expected level of stupidity of the populace.
