I disagree. It is suppressing free speech. That is never good.It's not a stupid law.
If you don't support someone's right to speak freely when you disagree with them, you do not support anyone's right to freely express themselves.

He managed to get here on time about 1/2 of his shifts, and loved to grace us with his opinion ON EVERYTHING, ALL THE TIME!Obviously, refusing to give a reference speaks pretty loudly, but not quite as loud as "So and so was a complete tool. Only showed up on-time about half the time, had a huge mouth that never stopped talking,
Sounds like he will be easy to get along with. I'd say help him when you can IF he asks. Otherwise, sit back and watch the show.^Pretty much spot on here with my thinking at the moment. He has already stated that he doesn't want to step on anyone's toes. He is definitely nervous......who wouldn't be.
No surprise whatsoever that my opinion aligns with yours, as it does most of the time when employee discussion comes up. If John C. still came around we'd have to read half a Bible's length post detailing why employer's are all a bunch of assho!es and employees are always getting screwed 6 ways to Sunday by the boss.
Obviously, refusing to give a reference speaks pretty loudly, but not quite as loud as "So and so was a complete tool. Only showed up on-time about half the time, had a huge mouth that never stopped talking, and wrecked more stuff than he fixed. I wouldn't hire him back if he was the last prospective employee in the country."
And the truly sad thing is, that description fits more ex-employees than anyone wants to believe.
If I were to call a former employer for a reference on someone I was considering for hire I would take it all with a grain of salt if everything reported was the end of the world bad. When 'investigating' a potential hire, it is the same as any other investigation. one must weigh all the available information.A It's not a stupid law at all.
Easy to be a keyboard quarterback. I've been on this board before Vtech joined, and the money he's made from this company is nothing to shrug off. None of us know what his financial situation is, or should. If/when he decides to cut and run, we might know, or we might not. Doesn't really matter.
No wadding going on. Just pointing out why would he leave when they are funneling him mass quantities of cash?No keyboard quarterback here, just merely stated what I would have done with a company that can't get it together let alone seemingly work against you. I never referred to money as income or debts owed by another person. No need for panties to get wadded up over internet conversation.

Once again I will say: Any restriction on free speech is bad. Here in the USA, our founding documents specifically deny that power to the government.
If I had a deal like that, I’d ride that sumbitch right into an early retirement.No wadding going on. Just pointing out why would he leave when they are funneling him mass quantities of cash?
If he was a W2 employee, absolutely. But, until the juice isn't worth the squeeze, carry on with the battle.
Or get the thread shut downAnd I see
