I only recall getting POd once from a joke/cartoon. I wasn't 'out' at work (a defense contractor) and a cartoon circulated the office depicting sodomy and AIDS. This was probably around 1990, and at the time, I had already lost several friends to AIDS, and I was volunteering at an AIDS hospice at the time.
For what it's worth, some time later, my boss wanted me processed for a security clearance and I declined to participate. That was the most angry I ever saw her. I wasn't fired though.
To this day, I still find it very funny I was not given a security clearance because I COULD keep a secret.
