POLL: Your employees post THIS YouTube video. What do you do?

Over the weekend, I heard PSY’s catchy song Gangnam Style for the first time. Coincidentally, I then read this story from Kathleen Miles on the Huffington Post about 14 Gen-Y lifeguards at a city pool in El Monte, CA, who posted this video (below, left) on YouTube spoofing the original “Gangnam Style” music video (below, right).

In response, the City fired the 14 lifeguards for using City property, including the pool and their uniforms, for private use. Sure, the City was within its rights to fire these employees. But, was that the ideal response?

Let’s pretend that you are the decisionmaker for El Monte, CA. What would you do? Let me know in the comments below.
