Gamestop Employee Fired For Planking

4.6
Unfortunately planking is not a laughing matter for some people and one unfortunate Gamestop employee has been fired after five years of service for planking within a Gamestop store. John Mazzocchi pictured below posted a picture of himself planking between two in-store kisoks and posted it with : When I go #planking I go hardcore..

Unfortunately some one within Gamestop management didn’t take kindly to the display of planking prowess and both John Mazzocchi and his colleague who took the photo where fired. The pair were probably made an example of by Gamestop management to stop other employees following suit.

They are doing thing under a social media act.

1. He shouldn't have done it in the store
2. Shouldn't post them on twitter/facebook

Companies DO check your social networking profiles for anything that could show the company up.

They fired Mazzocchi because he was making a joke of the company vaguely. Gamestop need to sack them to show they are serious.
