Oculus Is No Longer A Company - Now A Division of 'Facebok Technologies'

I work for a very well known corporate entity and I am highly discouraged from mentioning my affiliation with them on social media simply because doing so would make me representative of the company and as such, liable to lose my job if I then go and say something stupid online while publicly representing them.

Furthermore I deal with angry and downright irrational customers every day and while sometimes I'd love to argue with them I don't, because that's not what I'm being paid to do. I'm literally being paid to do my best to satisfy customers so if that's not what I'm doing then there's no reason for me to keep my job.

No matter how much a customer pisses me off I grin and bear it so I can keep my very modest salary. Palmer Luckey was paid hundreds of millions of dollars and chose not to grin and bear it, and instead picked fights with people on Reddit.

There is absolutely no version of this where he keeps his job.

He wasn't fired for his political views. He was fired for not having respect for the position he was in. Now that being said, having radically unpopular politucal opinions while demonstrating his own inability to filter himself and use discretion while publicly representing the company he worked for certainly didn't help him.
