Include the following in your paper:

Describe the situation and what happened in detail. What was posted? How did the employer react?

What was the outcome on the job? Did the person lose his/her job?

What is your opinion about this situation? Do you agree or disagree?

Describe the situation and what happened in detail. What was posted? How did the employer react?

A school teacher posted a semi naked picture of hers on social media where her students were added in her friend list. This led to students circulating the picture all over the school and internet.

The school authorities fired the school teacher for posting such picture and creating a wrong impression on the minds of young students and disrespecting the work relations.

What was the outcome on the job? Did the person lose his/her job?

Yes, the school teacher ended up losing her job.

What is your opinion about this situation? Do you agree or disagree?

I somehow disagree with the outcome or the actions taken by the school authorities. Instead, the authorities should have asked the teacher to either post such pictures privately by removing students from her list or take it down and given a warning.
