"
I picked this up on LinkedIn, is this factually correct?"
I rather suspect it doesn't tell the full story. FWIW over the last 24 hours I've had several e-mails linking to Facebook etc which have led to a few of these posts..it's nice to suddenly be popular but even I have my limits..
The only difference between any of the posts has been the number of years "loyal service"...I've also seen exactly see the same post on at least one other social media site..
It looks like it's crafted to sound as if it has been written by the individual who has posted it but in reality all the messages seem to all have a common origin..UNITE or BASSA by any chance?
