NASHVILLE, Tenn. - A total of 18 people were fired from a Tennessee business after joining the nation-wide protest "A Day Without Immigrants."
The 18 employees at Bradley Coatings, Incorporated in Nolensville, Tennessee told their supervisors on Wednesday they'd be taking part in the nationwide movement. Then, on Thursday, they were told they no longer had jobs.
"We are the team leaders directly under the supervisors and they informed us last night that we could not go back to work and the boss said we were fired," one employee said.
The former employee asked to remain anonymous but had this message to his former boss.
"I would tell him he was unfair, after working for them for so many years, giving 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.

Made me smile, too, when I saw it on the 10:00 Nashville news last night. They were warned and ignored it.
Not necessarily. My husband owns a micro-small business. We had an employee file for unemployment after abandoning the job and working a total of five hours. They gave it to him and jacked up our rates for three years before we could get them to listen to us. New Mexico is corrupt that way.

The unstated reason for this "strike" was to try to hurt businesses in order to make a political point. My guess is that the vast majority of those who participated in the "day off" were actually illegal aliens, but American citizens who are "useful idiots."
The fact that they acted to hurt the business would announce to the employer that these people are not working to further the company's business interests.

Maybe the illegal criminal invaders will offer these 18 fools a job...
