Whats Coming…

Hmm.

This sounds like yet another apocryphal conservative e-mail, a smug fable that gives no details about the business, what it does, or how it explains that the best way to help an ailing business is to fire people based on political affiliations, as opposed to following Marxist, leftist ideas such as “merit” or “worth to the company.

All over fears that “Barrack” [sic] may or may not raise taxes at some indeterminate level sometimes in the future, maybe.

It’s about as real as the other chain e-mail about someone stiffing a waiter a tip over an Obama tie. Its more about petty revenge than actual economics.

If you believe this, I have some money waiting for you in Nigeria.

DU

Are you saying that you were going to keep the six employees if McCain became President? Or that just the mere thought of McCain as President suddenly would have improved your business? Were you doing well before Obama became the President-Elect? It’s amazing how little responsibility Republicans want to take for the mess we are in, yet they are so ready to apply blame even before the man has even taken office.

Art … (an’ everyone else): as much as many of us might disagree with Terry’s opinions, Terry does represent the feelings of a significant number of Americans, and it is important we know how they feel — we do all have to live and work together in this country. One should voice a strong, reasoned disagreement with him if inclined, but not denigrate or ridicule his character so as to drive out of OrangeJuice. We need Terry’s voice here, just as we need Vern’s, Sean’s and everyone between ‘em to get the full chorus of our country and community. What makes OJB special is there ain’t no one preachin’ choir here.

And I believe in the absence of a bargained labor contract, a boss can fire whoever he wants, s’long as it isn’t because of race, ethnicity, or gender.

Mighty Fine last I heard!

Lets hear the leftist chorus!

Unity! (agree with me!)
Change!(ummmmm)
Diversity! (of appearance. ideas, not so much.)

Teacher: Thank you. You know, I went off the road a few weeks ago south of nowhere and Fresno, and the only car to stop had a NARAL sticker. Good people can disagree. But when you have to deal with people who treat those who disagree with them as evil, I am disposed NOT to giving them any benefit of good intentions. Ever. No, not ever Vern.

#5:
California Labor Code:
“1102. No employer shall coerce or influence or attempt to coerce or influence his employees through or by means of threat of discharge or loss of employment to adopt or follow or refrain from adopting or following any particular course or line of political action or political activity.

Joe, That’s why right wing talk radio does so well; they do have a very large audience. I’m always a little saddened when I discover a friend or a relative (my older sister), accepts their portrayal of the news.

Thanks for posting the California code relevent to the posting, but I don’t believe Mr. Crowly lives in California anymore. I’m under the understanding that we have here laws more protective of labor than do many other states.

#11: “That’s why right wing talk radio does so well; they do have a very large audience.That’s why right wing talk radio does so well; they do have a very large audience.”

Hmm, they *USED* to have a large audience. Not anymore. Or, people don’t believe what the right-wing talkradio nuts say.
The outcome of the election speaks volumes. The power of talkradio is over.

As far as the CA labor law is concerned, it is my understanding that a lot of other states have similar laws. I live in CA and therefore care about CA laws.
And last I looked, this blog covers Orange County, California, so it doesn’t matter here if the laws are different wherever Mr. Crowley lives.
And further, it was *you* who claimed that “a boss can fire whoever he wants.” Assuming that your handle indicates that you are a High School teacher in Santa Ana, I would expect a teacher to not perpetuate things that are false, at least where the person teaches…
