    They probably just didn't like her that why they found this dumb excuse to fire her. Well she won in the end and got paid I bet they feel stupid now.

    CAPS LOCK IS CRUISE CONTROL FOR COOL
    but with cruise control, you also have to steer.

    Nothing shows that you mean business like emails in all caps, red, and bolded.

    Well, yeah. Not so much because of the CAPS and the bold, but because of the red color. It's a natural response. That red gets your attention without being annoying.

    NOW TELL ME, WOULDN'T YOU FOCUS ON THIS MORE THAN OTHER NORMAL TEXT? NOW, THERE'S NO REAL REASON FOR PEOPLE TO WRITE IN THIS AWFUL, AWFUL YELLOW OTHER THAN TO ANNOY PEOPLE.

    Who thought the capslock key was a good idea in the first place?

    This is most likely the reason such events happened the way they did.

    I get the feeling that it was a known issue, so without warning is a little rich, but as for getting a pay out they must of not followed the correct protocols e.g 3 written warnings. It fairly standard on the internet these days that CAPS is the text version of yelling, with a lot of people using text as their main way of communicating in the workplace, it would be kind of the equivalent of your co worker walking into your office and yelling at you because you filled out a form incorrectly, that would be over the top yes?

    When I was in high school my teacher would put CONGRATULATIONS! A+ on my exam with CAPS and in red ink. I believe that is confrontational and she should be fired.
