I should of known today was going to be a bad day when I woke up with a headache at 6:30 this morning! So I took by Excerdin Migraine and off to work I go!
Right before lunch I get called into my supervisors office and told to close the door! As I sit down in the chair across from her desk I am thinking "what did I do now?"
I am being repremanded about a post I posted on my Facebook page regarding Governor Joe Manchin! I looked at her and said "what"! "Are you kidding me?". She said no she was called into her superviors office and told to tell me I am not to post remarks about Governor Manchin on my Facebook page!
She then asked what I had posted. I told her I posted my blog comments regarding the fact that WV is going to lose millions of dollars now that PA and OH have approved table gaming. I told her about the post I made regarding the email I sent to the Governor regarding the fact that last winter when Kanawha County was getting hammered by a snow storm he closed down the state offices! Even though it was not snowing in Hancock County, we had to go home. Hancock County received the storm over night but yet we had to report to work the next day! I stated in my letter that I thought it was unfair that Hancock County got dumped on last week but we had to report to work but yet he closed state offices last year when his county got hammered.
I was told by my supervisor that I am not to make comments regarding the governor on facebook that if I have a problem with the governor I am to follow the chain of command in the office!
I then advised her it was my constitutional right as an American to voice my opinion. Has the State of WV never heard of Freedom of Speech? What I do in the privacy of my own home and what I post on my Facebook page is my buisness and my right as an American.
I did not threaten the governor, I did not call him names, I did not say what I thought of him, I did not critize the way he runs the state! I did not mention the fact that his daughter was granted a degree she never earned!
As a taxpayer, a voter, a resident of the state of WV and as an American Citizen I have the right to voice my opinion on any matter I want to. I have the right to write this blog and I have the right to put whatever I want on Facebook or any web page for that matter.
My parting words to my supervisor were: "Can we say lawsuit?"
