In this case it wasn't just unfortunate that someone was around to record the stupidity. This guy wanted the attention fully aware that he was going to be seen my many people in the public. He wanted to be seen and heard.
I heard a lawyer on the radio discuss this matter yesterday, and he said once the person's name became public, an employer can fire that person if it can tarnish the work place. In this case, the person is believed to supervise staff, many of whom are females. The lawyer thinks it is a pretty cut and dry case and he doesn't even think that the union will want to touch this one.
He compared it to this story from a couple of years ago:
