WORST. TEAMMATE. EVER.  Look, that's the obvious reaction when learning of the Div III women's hoopster who ditched her team on the eve of the Sweet Sixteen to go to Cancun for Spring Break in her senior year, but my friend Sam Smith (no, not that Sam Smith) has a better question: given how almost every human resources professional uses Google and social networking to screen job applicants, will this (and should this) impair her hiring prospects for her entire career?  Would you refuse to hire someone who demonstrated such disloyalty, or would you at least give her a chance to explain herself?
