wow, i can smell from here that steaming load of bull you just spewed out. i can tell you from personally knowing how many clueless idiots that have jobs here how hard it is to get fired, and no one has ever gotten in trouble for making suggestions for improvement. every year Shaw runs a program where employees ask questions and make suggestions on camera, and the VP's respond to each one. usually they just explain why we do things a certain way, but actual changes have been made in the company from suggestions that employees have made in those sessions
i won't defend Shaw's TV service against Bell's, because i haven't used Bell and i know how often our Video Ops people screw up PPV and other special events (i will defend how much our internet kicks ass though). but as an employer they are very fair. someone has to be beyond incompetent, screw something big up, or piss the wrong person off to get fired, and i'm guessing your buddy falls into one of those categories
