As someone who doesn't use social media this behavior is just baffling to me. Does this woman not have real life friends who she can bitch about work with? Why are people self sabotaging like this?
Another trend I've been seeing (speaking a general sense, I know no knowledge of this particular case) is that people who have been laid off will pull a stunt like this to try to 'go viral' and get a job. I have no idea if it works or the wisdom of it, but I've seen about a half dozen people in my network who I know were laid off in a general and impersonal layoff post sob stories about being fired by an unreasonable and mean boss.
We also fired a guy who posted about being laid off from our company, despite our company not going layoffs. Legal had to send him a little reminder about the terms he signed when we offered severance and that falsely the company feels claiming the company is doing layoffs is damaging to the company.
Overall I feel like I have become aware of more people trying to position their termination in ways that aren't truthful but they feel are more advantageous for generating interest from future employers.
I'd love to see data on this. Old advice guides against hiring such people, since they're liable to return the favor on you. But maybe the cost-benefit has changed.
