Thanks for your comment. I agree, it’s very, very difficult for any global corporation to keep tabs on 100% of their employees. We have another post on the blog that talks about Burger King’s challenges along the same front. It can be viewed here: http://tinyurl.com/ksqjhj

The bottom line — large corporations are going to have a the occasional flare-up with bad employees. All they can do is try their hardest to train them NOT to behave that way and hope the public forgives them when stuff like this happens.

I’m not really that surprised at what these workers did in the restaurant, but I am surprised that these idiots actually posted the videos on the internet. Unfortunately I think these things happen at many fast food joints and restaurants, not just Domino’s. It is nearly impossible for these companies to prevent things like this from happening.

I am curious to know how many companies are going to start addressing use of social media in their HR policies. I am a strong advocate for use of social media in organizations, but this case can only make companies more restrictive on their employees access to it. I know an HR policy would not have prevented this instance, but it is a shame if anyone relates YouTube or social media with clowns like these.

Thanks for the great post.
