Thankfully my employer doesn't fold under false outrage. She would tell everyone to shut up and people would forget about it inaday.amazing thing about false outrage is when they get told no they move to another topic until someone folds to appease blood lust

Does anyone honestly care about a professional athletes brother dying or is it one of those things everyone thinks they are supposed to feel bad about?
Yea, I only feel sympathy because everyone else is doing it

Holy shite! The medical field as a whole has very warped sense of humor. It is a way some react to traumatic events. If you think for one second that insensitive remarks aren't continually made about patients that die or that are in serious condition you are clueless.

the fact that she would tweet such an idiotic statement shows that she's just booksmart and lacks any common sense. She deserves every bit of backlash that will hit her. As for the hardasses on here that think it's "no big deal", if she did the same about one of your family members you would probably have a fricking brain hemorrhage.

I remember talking with a friend who was in residency about a woman losing her feet because of an amusement park rude malfunction. He quipped that the ride"knocked her socks off", I laughed. They are pretty much desensitized via working environments

As I mentioned earlier, I said this as a rebuttal to SlowFlowPro who argued that we were all overreacting and because he's been in hot water before over stuff on the internet (or something to that effect), and that this somehow excuses Katie Moody from any professional discipline. My point was that there was/is a professional justification for whatever discipline the dumb bitch receives, if any, based upon her line of work.
SEcondly, there is an elementary difference between a joke made privately among doctors and a public statement such as Moody made (and make no mistake, Twitter is public). Because she broadcast her idiotic remark on the internet, the entire English speaking world can now impute her conduct towards her employer, which would give them cause to punish her, if they choose to do so

It wouldn't bother me what some stranger said. Why does it matter what they think or say? I would be much more concerned with what my family is going through.

I have been told by many nurses that many cope with humor. I personaly can't be offended and have a morbid sense of humor myself.

I'm not advocating that society regulate the jokes made in private by medical professionals. I am saying that you/katie Moody can't reasonably expect not to face professional repercussions - no matter the industry- when you make public statements that reflect negatively upon your employer. Whether or not you were personally offended by her "jokes," a LOT of people clearly were, and a LOT of negative attention has now been shed on Johns Hopkins because of her conduct.

A reprimand is in order. Ruining her life for a terrible lapse of judgement isn't IMO.

It's very easy to say that when you're not in the heat of the moment

What do you consider appropriate action against her?
If she had sent an email from her employers email it would reflect negatively on her employer.
Should employees that get arrested for DUIs be fired? It is illegal... What she did wasn't.

Apparently she filled in her Employment information that she works at Johns Hopkins. Not an official record, but enough for people to make assumptions. That is where they are getting this "medical professional" attitude.

I would think more insensitive comments were made on public message boards. Should they all be outed and have their lives ruined for doing so?

Apples and oranges. You generally have an expectation of anonymity on public message boards. You post under an alias, and people generally don't broadcast their employer on public message boards.
She PUBLICLY identified herself on a major social network and, due to the readily available information SHE provided, people immediately discerned her place of employment. That was her own carelessness. No one 'outed' her- she did that to herself by making reckless statements on the world's (second?) most popular social network- one which many companies and professions publicly engage in.
I'm not saying she should be burned at the stake, but if JH were to fire her, she can only blame herself.
ETA: I should also add that even posting under pseudonyms on public message boards carries real-world consequences, whether one thinks that is fair or not. See Sal Perricone, most notably
