I wondered how the museum would feel about his vlogging in there. I guess it's a risk to break the policy of your employer, but I feel kinda sorry for Dalas' getting resigned for it. He's a dumbass. He didn't read the company policy manual, and he deserved to get fired. You appear

You appear to be shooting from the hip without knowing the details in this case. Such as - the videos in question have been online for 191 days and the video blogger was fired when he gave his two weeks notice. Do you think he was given the ax for his video of the elevator door opening or
