Could she get unemployment pay if she was just fired for her disparaging remark?
Could an employee at a health food store who lives on junk food put down its products or management and expect to keep her job, but get unemployment pay if he/she quit after the owner read him/her some things about healthy living and recommended she read more, in reproof of his/her junk food diet?
So why should the government get involved in any of this?
The Bible is offensive to nonbelievers.
Gays are a threat to mankind, and these judges need to grow up.
In my dealings with unemployment, it is extremely difficult for an employer to dispute an employment claim, even in some cases where the employee quit.
Just in the last year we had an employee tell her manager that she was unhappy and actively looking for another job and intended to leave as soon as she found another. We tried to work with her, tried to determine what she was unhappy about and see what could be done about it (part of it was the length of her commute and we even offered to let her work a flexible schedule) and then we tried to get her to commit to a date so we could recruit and train her replacement. She refused to do any of this or work with us and wouldnt put anything in writing, although the manager and our HR manager documented all their conversations with her. After several months, we let her go as 1) we couldnt keep letting her string us along and 2) she became increasingly hostile and unproductive. She filed for unemployment and we disputed it but in the end she got it. It wasnt worth our time and effort to dispute it further.
In another case from this year, we had an employee in a job that was going to be eliminated. We offered him another, rather comparable position, one well within his skills set and with no decrease in pay but with a schedule change -1st shift to 2nd shift (and with an added shift differential). He gave us a written resignation letter with a two week notice which he signed and in the letter he stated that while he could work the 2nd shift, he just didnt want to and that he wanted to seek other opportunities. He then filed for unemployment. And guess what? Even though I sent unemployment our offer letter for the change of position and his resignation letter, he still got unemployment.
Law is words formed to (hopefully) make continuity out of a misguidance.
What I hate about the practical application of evil is the turmoil it generates and uses to make an unbroken circle a convoluted mess that seems pleasing to the senses, but makes no sense ..
[Stille] told me that I should read one Psalm, or one chapter, per day, something like that,
I am as Catholic as they come, but I would never demand or even suggest to my employees to read the Bible or some verses. I can’t believe the store owner went there. Thank goodness the store owner only has to pay unemployment. It sounds like she could get a pretty good amount of money for this. She may be being charitable which I guess is good...lol.
I have been made to sit in the office and listen to a litany of all my shortcomings before.
Should I have sued?
Isn’t unemployment paid by the state? Why does the owner have to pay? What does unemployment insurance you pay to the state cover?
And this is one more reason why I'll never be a landlord or employer. I have no desire to invite the Nanny State into my life any more than it already is, telling me whose lifestyle choices I may or must support.
