Boss tells pro-Trump employees to resign (GrubHub)
Fox News ^ | November 10, 2016 | Bryan Llenas

Posted on 11/10/2016 2:29:00 PM PST by bamahead

The CEO of Grubhub, an online food delivery service, sent a company wide email Wednesday suggesting employees who agree with President-elect Donald Trump’s behaviors and his campaign rhetoric should resign.

“If you do not agree with this statement then please reply to this email with your resignation because you have no place here,” wrote Matt Maloney, Co-Founder of Grubhub. “We do not tolerate hateful attitudes on our team."

Maloney, a Hillary Clinton supporter, sent the email Wednesday afternoon with the subject line, “So…that happened…what’s next?” He made it clear in the email statement that he is personally stunned and deeply concerned with the results of Tuesday’s election.

real simple ...

never tell anyone who you’re gonna vote for ...

that’s why there’s a curtain on the voting booth ...

when i grew up it was considered a private matter, and rude to ask ...

The firing of employees merely for having a belief and voting it should be outlawed.

That's NOT a conservative or constitutional view.

If you have a business and you want to hire Christians, the government should not be able to stop you.

Let's remember, we are conservatives!

We all can live without GrubHub.

There are other similar services aplenty, and they allow us to eat our food unmixed with political excrement!!!!

I would reply to the email saying, speak to my attorney.

Hopefully, with this kind of exposure, that jerk will either shut up or sell his part and leave the company.

I worked in an office with a PHB-ette and gal-pal who talked about everything and made fun of who and whatever.

The day the wun was elected I said that it unbelievable that a communist became president. My life was made absolutely miserable until I left.

I went through some ups and downs for a couple of years after taking a not so hot job in one of the most screwed up corporations based in St. Louis.

Eventually I got established in a good job that pays double what I was making there.

The left is all for tolerance if you agree with them.

I just now sent Maloney’s company an e-mail saying we will not order food through GrubHub anymore.

Seriously. Could you imagine somebody this unhinged providing your food? Could you trust his company to provide food to a customer having Trump supporters working there?

In 2008 I know a guy who went through the parking lot and laid off everybody with a barky bumper sticker on their car.

He called it “fundamental change”. His company, his rules, not illegal at all.

Yep, “delicate snowflake” is not a protected class and “microaggression” is not covered under workers comp.

Another one of those times when a person might wish he patronized a business so he could stop patronizing it.

Never heard of the GrubHub.

Go to the GrubHub website and locate the restaurants in your area that subscribe to it then send THEM an email telling them you will not be ordering food from them anymore.......

I sent that to three in my neighborhood.........

I just now sent Maloney’s company an e-mail saying we will not order food through GrubHub anymore. I said that the hateful, violent demonstrations over the past two days have not been launched by Donald Trump supporters.

That's a great start, but is expected and will fall on deaf ears. Better still, call those restaurants that use the GrubHub service in your area, ESPECIALLY if you really eat there, and let them know you are not pleased with the restaurant allying with a business that has such open contempt for people like you.

That might have more effect.

The resignation letter would be from my attorney.

Page 2 would be his notification of the lawsuit.

I suggest everyone BOYCOTT GrubHub.

I’d hold off and then file a claim with Sarah Palin’s Equal Employment Opportunity Commission.
