What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Fla
My daughter (18) posted on her facebook account that a certain manager was satan. more specific she posted (managers name) = satan. A fellow employee told the manager and he printed a copy of her facebook page and gave it to HR. The HR manager told her she was being written up for the act and some more punhishment action was following. My daughter answers the phone somtimes for this business and the next day the HR manager called her and acted like she had applied for a job and called to check her status. My daughter forwarded her to the HR department. Somthing she has done before with no problems. A few seconds later the HR manager came out and confronted her in front of customers telling her to never do that again.
First off, I have told her to remove what she posted and to apologize to the manager. I raised her to be open and herself but calling someone that name is strong and should never be used. She's a good kid who let her emotions get the best of her.
My question is, can her employer take action for what she did and she is worried that the manager can sue her for slander/libel and that the HR manager will harass her to quit. Thoughts?
