August 8th, 2011 - 6:47 pm ICT by IANS
London, Aug 8 (IANS) A security guard in Britain was axed after he filmed his supervisor asleep on the job. The supervisor, however, claims she was just “resting” her eyes.
Security guard Darrell Welsh posted the 30 second film clip on Facebook, The Sun reported.
The supervisor kept her job after she said she was not really sleeping, but just “resting” her tired eyes.
Welsh had shot the short clip with his mobile on a night shift at a warehouse in Bridgwater, Somerset.
His employer held him guilty of gross misconduct.
“You can tell she’s asleep by her body language,” Welsh was quoted as saying.
