Federal Judge Caught Playing Solitaire During Trial
The Guardian Angels founder Curtis Swila told the Daily News he saw Manhattan Federal Court Judge Shira Scheindlin playing a computer card game while he testified at the trial of John A. (Junior) Gotti.
He drew a parallel to Mayor Bloomberg’s firing of a city worker caught playing computer solitaire at his desk. “Should a federal judge be playing video solitaire when an employee of the New York City government gets fired for playing video solitaire?” Sliwa said. “I don’t think any of us are that good at multitasking. To me that’s an abuse and an outrage.”
He’s got a good point about a judge playing solitaire, but I’m not so sure about firing the Judge or anyother employee. I think first and foremost would be just telling them they can’t be doing that. Nevermind the previous article we covered about a Judge ruling that someone can’t be fired for using the internet at work since it’s become a standard part of the way we live our life. Could it be possible that solitare too has made the leap from entertainment to another standard part of our lives. Welcome to CrzyLand
