I saw in the news the other day that Chris Brown threw a tantrum after an interview. Then later I saw him trying to apologize and at the same time defending what he did. It was obvious that he wasn't sorry and sent the message to young men that it's okay to be out of control as long as you say you're sorry while defending your actions. This is troubling to me.Bonnie Parahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14124266447198134665noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-806893066706929265.post-22727876628130993482011-03-28T11:44:13.766-07:002011-03-28T11:44:13.766-07:00I agree with you that Charlies should have been mo...I agree with you that Charlies should have been more civil in his comments, Ultimately, how you treat your employer will determine your employment status. I know that even though I was a well qualified sheet metal worker and did quality work and was very dependable, if I badmouthed my boss , I would not have kept my job. It all boils done to being responsible for our words and deeds. As far as being expected to be a role model, I need to take exception to that expectation. Just look at sports stars, movie stars, and other celebs. What percentage would be considered role models? It would be great if most were, but it obviously does not automatically go with the celebrity position. Sad, sad, sad, but true.STEVEDUNNhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07376342909893505932noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-806893066706929265.post-87048629804160696172011-03-23T09:21:08.475-07:002011-03-23T09:21:08.475-07:00I agree with estahl and Bonnie.I agree with estahl and Bonnie.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00248469539355641752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-806893066706929265.post-53944232946432133522011-03-22T18:18:32.438-07:002011-03-22T18:18:32.438-07:00Saving face is a powerful motivator.

This whole thing could be for publicity at this point.

Since Charlie is a celebrity, perhaps his employers and I say this because they had the power to fire him, felt that his behavior reflected negatively on them and the show they employ him to act in. Some people feel that celebrity brings and comes with the responsibility to be a role model to people who watch them act. I think that's why his behavior created this situation for him. Also, a lot of people might think he could show more restraint or at least be grateful to the people who have given him his career. I think that may be the reason they fired him. He pretty much slapped them across the face.Bonnie Parahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14124266447198134665noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-806893066706929265.post-18725235556546454862011-03-21T12:41:08.025-07:002011-03-21T12:41:08.025-07:00I think Charlie Sheen is not a typical "empl...I think Charlie Sheen is not a typical "employee".Look at most of the STARS. They are what makes the show and therefore have some clout that most employees do not have with their bosses. Also it may be that Charie had legitimate gripes about the shows management. Like you say, there are 2 sides to every story. Of course Mr Sheen did not verbalize very well, but I did understand some points he was trying to make. I know my employers never were concerned about what I did after hours as long as I showed up on time and did my job welll.STEVEDUNNhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07376342909893505932noreply@blogger.com
