The manager of the ironically named "I Don't Care" Bar and Grill in Catoosa, Oklahoma is hiring ...
Needing experienced kitchen staff. Line cooks, prep cooks, and dishwashers apply now!
After firing 12 staff last week for violating his "no call/no show" policy.
Fox Baltimore reports that the workers are without a job after getting fired for skipping work as a show of support for "A Day Without Immigrants."
The restaurant workers are all Hispanic and say it was important to them to participate in the national protest.
But they didn't think it would cost them their jobs.
"They feel like they've been unfairly terminated," said a friend, translating for the employees.
The owner fired them by text message.
A message to one of the employees reads: "You and your family are fired. I hope you enjoyed your day off, and you can enjoy many more. Love you.'
The group willingly chose to stay home with others across the country, supporting "A Day Without Immigrants."
"(They’re) upset they stood for something they felt was necessary so the community would stand together, and they got terminated for that," said the friend.
Restaurant owner Bill McNally gave us a written statement, saying he has a "zero tolerance policy for no show/no call incidents and the 12 employees violated that policy."
We didn't know that we would unfairly terminated for taking an unauthorized day off in order to stand together in a necessary protest against racist Gringos!
Gee....I thought the Country was supposed to grind to a halt. Must have blinked and missed that.
I don’t care so long as they’re back to work before I need my lawn cut.
As soon as I read “ translated their message for them”!!! GET OUT. I want to go up to everyone of them I see and ask for a green card then tell them to leave the country and come in LEGALLY
How do you say “Schadenfreude” in Mexican?
“”””””They feel like they’ve been unfairly terminated,” said a friend, translating for the employees.”””””””
Tell them they can get free legal help at the local INS office.
The most FAIR thing I’ve seen in a long time!! Tell Star f^*”s to hire them.
can you imagine, what their heads are full of, to believe that they can just not show up for work ?

Oklahoma is an at-will state. Except for very narrow circumstances, an employer can fire at will. Not showing up for work so you can demonstrate is not one of the narrow circumstances. Further, this employee doesn’t have an Obama DOJ to intimidate the employer.
Life is hard. It’s even harder when you’re stupid.
Very clearly stated “NO CALL NO SHOW” Otherwise known as job abandonment. These clowns had total disregard towards their jobs and the Restaurant they worked for. If the Owner had his i’s dotted and t’s crossed this was clearly documented in Employee orientation.

Pinche pendejo
Where is it written that life has to be fair?
Bet the day didn’t stop the welfare checks. Seems there are more on the taxpayer dime and fewer working every year so the impact on work that day was not overwhelming.
I’ll mow my own yard so Gtfo. Should have picked my own cotton
What is more offensive is that they believe ‘what they feel’ overrides they law.
Also, their smugness in knowing they are bulletproof infuriates me. They should have no rights here. I they want rights, go back to Mexico.
Roger that to both sentiments.
Remember to fly the Stars and Bars during February.
Live by the creed of the Left and get left with nothing good. Venezuela anyone?
Ha Ha HA!
"pleasure derived by someone from another person's misfortune"

But is it "misfortune" if the person brought it on himself? Maybe their "friend" can ask them and get back to us.
