Why did the employee even have a pocket knife in the office? As soon as he pulled it out, that was a threat....what an idiot....

What kind of question is that?
I carry a pocketknife all the time. I know many employees that carry pocketknives.
It isn't to threaten people with. It isn't to make remarks like the fired employee made. I don't disagree at all that making threats, joking or not, is wrong.
But MEN carry pocketknives for many reasons. And not the threaten ladies with.
I guess you think guns kill people right?

The guy was in charge of explosives. He delt with seriously dangerous stuff every day. If anyone cannot understand that environment and thinks he should be fired over such and event, they really should stay home and hide under their bed.
Was it wrong? Yes. But, get serious, to fire someone over such an event; absolutely not. We are turning into a country filled with spineless whiners and lawyers who stand ready to make money on the whining.

This tragic here we have a hard working CS and he got canned. I'm sure it was because he was under NSPS had he been under the old GS program he would have been promoted. Death to NSPS
