If you voted for Donald Trump, you may not feel welcomed at Grubhub.

The CEO of Grubhub, an online food delivery service, sent a company wide email Wednesday suggesting employees who agree with President-elect Donald Trump’s behaviors and his campaign rhetoric should resign.

“If you do not agree with this statement then please reply to this email with your resignation because you have no place here,” wrote Matt Maloney, Co-Founder of Grubhub. “We do not tolerate hateful attitudes on our team."

Donald Trump has done absolutely nothing to these snowflakes.

On the other hand, Baraq 0bama has.

““We do not tolerate hateful attitudes on our team.””

And exactly what is the attitude being exhibited by this employer, once he has made this statement.

Wonder if he should tell his Trump customers he doesn’t want the business.

I'm presuming their added value to food service is taking perfectly good food and adding grubs.

Just trying to augment the impending lawsuits and boycotts.

Bordering on Wrongful Termination

"Wrongful termination" is a left wing construct.

In a free country, a private business owner should be able to terminate an employee for any reason, or for no reason. The only exception to that principle, of course, would be in cases where there is a formal employment contract which explicitly sets forth the mutually agreed upon procedure for terminating the employee.

When defending ourselves against such knee-jerk anti-Trump bigotry, we must be careful not to rely upon illegitimate shortcuts to redress legitimate grievances.

In this case, therefore, I believe that GrubHub management has every right to terminate employees, just as I would then have every right to never again do business with them, in return for resorting to such a patently vindictive and unwise labor practices.

Firing employees on the sole basis of political ideology is quite extreme, and in most cases ill-advised, of course, but I, for one, am happy to invoke the right of boycott as an acceptable solution to such a development.

Thus, I say simply spread the truth about GrubHub's behavior, express our outrage to the company, launch a passionate boycott, and let the free market decide the rest...

Isn't it ironic? Don't you think.

GRUB, on Nasdaq, was down 4% today. It might be time for a big short on this stock.

It's a online food ordering company. They contract with restaurants who allow their menu items to be posted.

BOYCOTT their contracted restaurants, too.

From what I've been able to find about "Grubhub", it's merely an online service that allows restaurants to connect to it in order to receive online orders from people such as us.

The best course of action is to go to the Grubhub website and find the restaurants in your area who subscribe to that service then send them emails or letters telling them you have no intention of dealing with their business due to their connection with this biased and racist organization.

Curious why the CFO sold some of his stock on Monday.

https://www.thecerbatgem.com/2016/11/10/adam-dewitt-sells-5000-shares-of-grubhub-inc-grub-stock.html

Is this a stock manipulation ploy?
