Man should get a fucking medal, not a sacking.A DUTCH railway worker was sacked from his job for sawing a colleague's vuvuzela in half in a fit of rage.
Nels van Toor says soccer-mad colleagues brought the instrument to work and blew them constantly during Netherlands games, the Haarlems Dagblad reported today.
The final straw apparently came when co-workers attached one of the controversial horns to a compressed air pump, producing a constant, ear-splitting drone.
Mr Van Toor, 44, grabbed the vuvuzela and hacked it in half.
Bosses at Nedtrain in the northern city of Haarlem sacked him on the spot, the Dutch newspaper reported.

No one from Nedtrain was available to comment, the paper said.
