Big Brother Season 9 contestant Adam Jasinski has a surprise waiting for him when he returns to the real world: he’s been fired from his job at the United Autism Foundation.  Jasinski was captured on camera calling autistic children “retards,” a comment that has drawn criticism from autism groups and has some people even calling for the show to be pulled from CBS.

Jasinski won’t find out about being dismissed until he leaves the Big Brother house, since all contestants are forbidden to make contact with the outside world per the rules of the 24x7 reality show.  

On one hand, it kind of sucks that every word you say is on camera, but on the other, what kind of d-bag calls autistic children – especially one’s they work with – retards?  I don’t think Jasinski’s employer had much of a choice other than to fire him and renounce his remarks.
