HO HO HO

newstart2380 — Thu, 19 Dec 2013 08:38:06 GMT

Santa sacked for telling a joke about a Ho, there really are some pretty narrow minded people out there as the joke was inoffensive and after all we say whore not Ho ( USA) and isn't it a gardening tool ?
A. Survey said the majority of people voted he should not have been dismissed.
What is the world coming too ?

From what you said that is enough to get you banned from here for a few hundred minutes.......if someone here has a grudge.

Happened to me many a time .

I'm pretty sure the word is covered when you learn about workplace harrassment.

We have none of that at my work , but I believe a company will fire for that to stop from being sued.

Depends on where he told it, I suppose. If it was in a group of adults, ok, but if it was in front of a group of children I would have thought it highly inappropriate too.

It was a joke he'd had on a radio. He thought it was funny and innocent enough to tell the kids to make them laugh for the photo.

Apparently, majority got the joke and liked it. One parent did not.

Which word Ho or Hoe?

He was referring to a gardening implement clearly. How is that offensive?
