Broughton is considered one of the best seven rugby players in the world with his footwork and vision poised to light up the NRLW in the ...

The worker who was allegedly fired for failing to include an emoji in a text message to his boss has been released to his former employer, in a somewhat ironic fashion. Kristen Gordon told Daily Mail Australia the only comment she wanted to make about her ordeal, in which she was fired from the Gold Coast cafe where she worked, was the eyeroll emoji. Ms Gordon won the Fair Work Commission case against the Sens Catering group, a business that operates two Gold Coast cafes and one in the city of Brisbane – after she was fired on March 13 this year. FWC heard co-owner Phoebe Wang ordered a manager to fire Ms Gordon, who was a casual supervisor at the Southport cafe, following a dispute over the rosters. A colleague told the hearing that Wang, co-owner of Jerry Chen, became angry over the text messages from Ms Gordon, believing they were ‘unfriendly’ because workers did not use smiley emoji. Ms Gordon (pictured) says her response to her ordeal with her former employe...
