Can I be fired for making an offensive comment while on the phone at home
I was on the phone with a coworker and made an offensive comment about a fellow employee. I was not aware that I was on speakerphone so I was heard by that person. I was going to be fired but now I am going to be placed on a final written warning. I need to know if my action warrants this punishment, especially since my conversation was meant not only to be private, but was broadcasted without my knowledge or consent.
