Home Depot workers do not have the right to wear Black Lives Matter merchandise or imagery while on the job, a federal judge has ruled. In his ruling Friday, administrative judge Paul Bogas rejected a complaint from the US National Labor Relations Board that the home improvement retailer violated employees’ rights by barring them from displaying BLM gear

“Employee” or “Exempt” = wage SLAVE.

A tiny bit of sanity returning to our midst.

Anybody else notice that sites like LinkedIn don’t have as many sodomite-promoting posts this June as in past years? And the ones that are there typically don’t have a lot of support in terms of likes, etc.

Burners, looters and murderers shouldn’t even be working for Home Depot.

Everyone from the National Labor Relations Board involved with filing the charge against Home Depot needs to be personally charged for all of Home Depot's costs in fighting this.

They had no business filing the charge, especially since Black Lives MatterTM is a private entity.

Home Depot needs to file suit to force the employees of the National Labor Relations Board to wear Home Depot hats.

I try to avoid anti-social media during June.

Thanks for checking and taking one for the team!

Are you using Marxist concepts deliberately, or in ignorance? Because "wage slavery" is some hard-left crapola.

Pretty basic labor/management issue here, and only a hard left NLRB would have brought it in the first place. Thankfully, the ALJ followed the law.

I’m missing something. When you work for an employer, you in most cases agree to wear company logo or supplied uniforms. All the years I worked at PacBell/AT&T I never dreamed of wearing logo things that advertised anything other than company info. It’s like working at Disneyland, it’s a uniform. Why did this even go to the labor board?

“At will employees” whether hourly or salaried live paycheck to paycheck (after their two week hiring period) at the pleasure or displeasure of their supervisors.

Hourlies have a bit more protection through the Fair Labor ad Benefits Act but “exempts” are basically SOL.

If the boss wants you to work 60 hours some week “suck it up:”

This isn’t Marxism...this is Adam Smith reality,

Get a job and find out!

Worked my whole life. And there are a great many Americans - the vast majority, actually - who have had great lives while earning a wage, whether salaried or hourly.

As I said "wage slavery" is a common Marxist/socialist phrase used to attack capitalism.

Amazed at how you can look at some jobs these days. Green hair, purple hair. When I started you would have been out on your ear.

I don't seem to remember much about this in past years - the previous two were muted because of COVID. But this year LinkedIn seems to me particularly nasty. One poster basically issued a sneering taunt to "homophobes," which I promptly reported as against the rules. I have no idea what happened to her post since I was immediately disconnected from seeing the results to the post.

I reported one such post as "sexual content" and my post was promptly removed as "against community guidelines."

LinkedIn has been throroughly sodomized. I'm getting off as soon as possible. It's the FaceBook of professional networking now.

I wonder how these scum bags would react, if other Home Depot employees, wore a Confederate flag?
