Maybe the employees were dead weight slackers and this last bit was the final straw? America is the most litigious nation on the planet. There is a very good reason why lawyers are hated, they are part of what is destroying this nation.
How did the employees protest? Maybe the owner was paying all that he could afford. I don't know the whole story, but I support a business owners right to fire employees that don't produce.
But you don't know that they weren't producing, you're assuming so because you automatically place more faith in the business owner.
I worked for 20+ years for a company with a unionized factory. Once during my tenure, the idiots went on strike. I laughed out loud at them, literally, in their faces. They would never recover what they lost in wages by going on strike.
Seriously, that's how dumb they are.
I'm still laughing at them.
What a wonderful Christmas message brought to you by the right on Christmas Eve.
Can somebody tell me how a single mother worker two minimum wage jobs is supposed to afford to further her skills/education through school or training and have time to raise her children? I have no problem with saying that employees should better themselves if they want a better job, but we don't have a system that supports that.
She should have furthered her education and nailed down her skills before she had kids.
Another rocket science moment.
You're welcome.
(Whining about single motherhood does not further your cause nor does it endear your cause to hard working taxpayers.)
But you don't know that they weren't producing, you're assuming so because you automatically place more faith in the business owner.
The strike caused the business to close it's doors for five days, so I would say they weren't producing. They hurt the business badly due to their selfish strike.
I know of a bank that roughly did the same thing. Some 30 or so employee's were zapped over short period when a new manager entered the scene.
The only way they were able to keep the doors open in the next two years due to a complete withdrawal from local interest and business was due to deep pockets within the organization. It is picking up a little but went from a top outfit to what would be a no go if a venture was to consider starting up even now, 5 years later.
the only thing that would make sense here, is having a look at the competition to see what relationships possibly exist, or new partner style set ups.
like so many things at the hard working peoples daily perseverance it would appear as though they were led to do what they did as part of a plan, with the end game being the final notice.
People today are so shifty with money and so indifferent to who they use and how, it is not reasonable to simply take stories at a glance for what they seem to be and, nobody is stupid.
