He can always start his own company and run it his way.

Only in America.

Or China. Or Russia. Or any other corrupt third-world country.

He has job offers coming in so he will be okay.

But if he was a security guard on a 90 day trial period and he took 2 days off of work without permission/notice and left the company with no security those two days as other workers weren't available (holiday) - I am not surprised he was fired.

I didn't address it because it's speculation and didn't inform me of anything. It's hard enough to know what happened based on the article without speculating whether or not something else was going on.

People shouldn't settle when it comes to taking care of those that one personally brings into this world.

A part time job and welfare aren't the only two choices.

You don't know that. Why doesn't he have a full time job to go with his full time family?

You shouldn't lie about others beliefs. He has a family to support. Quit having kids when you cannot afford them
