Can he do this?

What is the name of your state? Georgia

I was fired because my employer hacked into an offsite journalling database, located my anonymous personal private journal, printed it out, discovered I had called him a name in this personal private password protected journal. Yes, I had accessed this journal twice from my office computer. But, this was not against the rules. This office only has one computer, so am very aware of how often employees access personal info while at work, as they have to ask me to move out of the way to do so.

This can't be legal?

Yes, it is legal.

Crap, thank you. Seems like it is a huge violation of privacy, but I guess I am not protected.

 

[BelizeBreeze]

You have no expectation of privacy in a public work area, using a computer used by other employees and OWNED by the company.

Gotcha.

Now I am reaching. What about the apect of himprinting this and showing it to people outside the company. Any recourse there?

Sure, you can beat the crap out of him.

Already considered. Thanks for your candor.
