Yes, they do need to learn they are in the US and working under US rules. But I wonder what would have happened to them if they had walked off their job in Mexico? My guess is they would have been fired and wouldn’t have had a bunch of reporters doing a story on them.

BCI needs to review all of its employees for legality before ICE does.

Here's the list of jobs in the construction industry that won't get done, for the most part, without "questionable" labor: painting, bricklaying, tile setting, concrete pouring & finishing, roofing, and likely some others I'm not thinking of right now. This is my observation in the business since 1981 and in my personal life when building/renovating a house. Higher skilled and licensed work like electrician and plumber are generally not peppered with "questionable" labor.

I wonder how many of these were illegal aliens, BCI knew it and these people worked there for years saving BCI enormous amounts of money in SS taxes and lowered wages?

Now that the base board has been removed and a light has been shined in, some of these cockroach companies are scared of being found out that they have employed illegals for decades.

Give your commercial painting business in the Nashville, TN area to: Bradley Coatings Incorporated (615) 331-4402 1248 Antioch Pike Nashville, TN

Why? There is more to this than meets the eye. You can bet BCI has hired illegals to fill its job needs or these people would not have walked off the job.

These people being second level supervisors tells me they probably could speak two languages (spanish being one) so they could communicate with the "help". These second level sups probably and imported their kinfolk from Mexico to work at BCI.

No, something just smells fishy for this ol fisherman.

I don’t have a problem with LEGAL IMMIGRATION. My
ancestors had to come to America the legal way a long
time ago. -

“I will fire your ass.”

That’s a very clear policy. I think they teach it at Harvard. Good job.

“”I would tell him he was unfair, after working for them for so many years, gave him our best. They could not understand that it was just one day. We were going to make up that day on a Sunday, but they didn’t understand that, and it was not the best way. They didn’t give us an opportunity and just told us we were fired,” he said.”

You don’t get to tell the boss what you will and will not do!

You could have started a discussion on Human Biodiversity, and really upset them.

Employ-at-will means you can be terminated “at will” save
anything outside the EEOC guidelines (race, religion, etc).
Georgia is both EAW and RTW.

Yeah, a faithful employee Just walks off the job in defiance. If these ingrates walk away, just keep walking. There are plenty of people needing jobs.

Diversity is the new way to cheat. No need to earn a promotion or a job, just scream lack of diversity, the new way to cheat the more qualified individual.

My youngest is a many generations American Citizen, he works in a factory, miss a day with out a doctors excuse note, you lose your job, it’s in their contract.

Those stupid women who march next will find out the exact same thing. Don’t show up for work, no job to go back to. All employers need to post signs, IF YOU DON’T SHOW UP FOR WORK YOU ARE FIRED! See how long they last with no income. Because UE will be denied.
