Here’s Happy Birthday being played on the world’s smallest violin.
All should be guilty of inappropriate behavior for a first grader and made to stand in the corner for time out.
If you put your employees safety first, you certainly did not do that for Mr. Berling. In fact, you disregarded his requests, his needs to feel secure, and then went on to compound it even further. You and your staff failed.
Awesome Birthday Gift !

I dont want to sound like a bleeding heart or lastly “woke” but I agree. Panic attacts are very real.
Goodness! Do I ever have a surprise for my wife come time for my birthday. Talk about easy money. Do you suppose it will work every year?
This guy is the ultimate party pooper.
Now he’s really the center of attention.

Nice rack, but seriously 450K for getting his feelings upset?
This country is done.
No, I do not want a Birthday party
$450,000 later, can you hear me now?
No employer has the God given right to humiliate a person, just because that person happens to work for them. Your intentions do not matter. The person DID NOT WANT the attention; yet that attention was forced upon him
If I would have been on the jury, that man’s great grandkids wouldn’t have to work
I’ve been on a jury where a roof job issue turned into a multi-year $$$ drama due to both sides feeling dissed and digging their heels in. We didn’t award the plaintiff’s very much in that case, though they “suffered” from the ordeal. The roofer defendant was so convinced of his rightness he walked out when the verdict was read. He was truly offended this couple would try to besmirch his good name and business when he had tried to make it right.
Are they throwing a you won the lawsuit party as well?
Some people go to work, and want nothing more than to do their job and get a paycheck. If I do something nice, add something to the paycheck or promote me. That’s it
Parties are not in the job description. “Because YOU want to do someone”, is as valid as saying “I want to sleep with your wife”. You are imposing your will upon someone else. And you are threatening his employment as a condo on of your imposition. Nope
Introverts are quite happy to mind their business. They do not demand you do anything, at all. Show them the same basic respect - or pay dearly, your call
Yep.
Plus hes a guy, so he is just expected to take this kind of treatment and just be grateful he has a job at all.
If he was a woman theyd be going for millions and the optics would not have the company top officers talking about appealling the ruling.
When I don’t want a party, I just walk out. This country is being ruined by lawyers and thin skinned folks. Really a sad state of affairs. I wouldn’t have given him anything.
