Manager Writes Up Employee Who Catfished Them, Causing a Workplace Drama

A manager in a casual work environment wrote up an employee who created a fake social media account to follow them, causing workplace drama. The manager has a personal policy of keeping their private life separate from work and was uncomfortable with the employee's request to follow them on social media.

However, the employee took it a step further and created a fake account to access the manager's private information and shared it with other colleagues. The manager felt that this was a huge breach of privacy and ended up writing up the employee, causing a rift among the team.

While some employees support the manager's decision, others feel that it was an overreaction and that a verbal warning would have been sufficient. What do you think?
