My wife was fired today from her bank job without warning. She was fired for employee confidentiality reason. She has been a model employee. The circumstances: We were at local small bar in our small community, when we overheard 3 drunken individuals talking contracts very loudly in regards to a local casino, and we were 25 ft away. My wife commented to me that if they belonged to a professional organization that deals with or is apart of the casino, they could be fired. She told an employee for the casino when she went to work that she overheard 3 individuals at "Greenhill's" (where we live) talking contracts concerning the local casino. She told my wife that she knew a lady that lived out there. This employee went to the lady that lived in our community, that worked for the local casino, and told her what my wife said. This lady is a manager at this casino and went to complain on my wife that she shouldn't be discussing confidential information in regards to the casino. How can discussing this kind of information with an employee of the organization be a confidentiality issue, and what she discussed with that employee was not confidential information (i.e.: accounts, employees, loans and etc) The bank feeling pressure and concerned about loosing this major account with millions in their bank, fired my wife. This may not be a wrongful termination, but my wife was slandered in my opinion that cost her, her job.
