I just completed a job today so I'm home early, I thought we could hang out a bit.
Did you hear all divisive speech coming out Obama's mouth today. Wow I could not believe my ears I think he is trying to force impeachment actions.

The funny thing was I was at a Mexican restaurant with about 15 Mexicans have lunch. None of them cared about listening to the drivel, not one of them.

Employers (or employees) can terminate employment anytime for any reason under the employment at will doctrine.

As it should be. Now if we can also get those signs back up behind the counter- "we reserve the right to refuse service to anyone", we'll be getting somewhere.

Where did those signs go anyway? You'd think they'd at least turn up on American Pickers once in a while.

There's a restaurant down south that still has a "Hippies Must Use The Back Door" sign over the rear exit.

How precisely does Hobby Lobby dictate the religious practices of its employees?

This is exactly where we are headed, and we are already well on the way down that path.

Yep. Gives employers too much unchecked power over employees. Put the 'just cause' doctrine into law, and we'd all be better off.
