Facebook, the social media website is used, almost exclusively for 'idle chitchatter', so you may want to avoid working there if your opinion of the user is so low. (Actually, you'll probably fit right in at Facebook.)

It's unclear to me how a 'high enough in the ladder' manager doesn't realize that there's easily dozen people who know the situation intimately but who can't do anything until a dependent system to them is up. "Get back to work" is... the system is down, what do you want them to do, code with a pencil and paper?

ramenporn violated the corporate communication policy, obviously, but the tone and approach for a good manager to an IC that was doing this online isn't to make it about corporate vs them/the team, and in fact, encourage them to do more such communication, just internally. (I'm sure there was a ton of internal communication, the point is to note where ramenporn's communicative energy was coming from, and nurture that, and not destroy that in the process of chiding them for breaking policy.
