Abhorrent conduct on the part of this lady, BUT what happened to our First Amendment? Did the Brits retake control of the colonies?
Creative. The lawyer who suggested that must be disbarred.
“BUT what happened to our First Amendment? “
Does not apply to the private workplace.
We would have to see the companies definition of misconduct. I mean if this lady said she didn’t like a particular sports team, would they still deny her unemployment? Seems like we’re on a slippery slope, It could get to the point where people can’t say anything at work. At some jobs. 1984 around the corner.
Seems like to me it does apply because we're talking about her government-paid unemployment claim, not her private employment or lack thereof.
DUDE, you are not eligible for unemployment when fired!
““Since President Trump’s election, it was common for workers to talk about hating blacks or hating foreigners,” Scheetz...”
Another judge propagandist using President Trump to blame for societies leftist created ills.
“I mean if this lady said she didn’t like a particular sports team, would they still deny her unemployment? “
LOL! You are joking?
You can appeal if you are denied benefits.
He did. He lost.
Except the NFL “workplace” of course.
>>>“Since President Trump’s election, it was common for workers to talk about hating blacks or hating foreigners,” Scheetz wrote in her ruling.<<<
I did not know that. Silly me.
I wouldn't know, DUDE.
Now you know.
It could be the next logical step.
Most companies have policies of telling what you did wrong to give you a chance to change behavior. Sounds like they did nothing, just fired her. No warning.
So what other things are forbidden to talk about at that place?
Like I said, we would have to see the company’s policies which are mysteriously not in the article. Pretty bad journalism. But the whole thing just doesn’t ring true in the least. Part of the story is likely a liberal plant.
I don’t see hwere what she said has any bearing on her jobless claim.
Maybe she got fired for her words, but judges don’t have authority to decide what a state or country can allow as qualifications for jobless benefits.
