Guarantee the fucker still got his golden parachute though, so can you really say it doesn’t pay?
As easy as it is to believe that all these monsters care about is money, I do think there’s a significant amount of pride tied up in their behavior. I strongly suspect being fired from the company he ran for so long stings a lot, even with a golden parachute to salve the wound.
Workers report being harassed, threatened, retaliated against, and seeing their stores shut down after voting to unionize. Joselyn Chuquillanqui, a Starbucks barista of seven years, was allegedly fired for being three minutes late. Will Westlake, a barista of two and a half years, says he was fired for wearing an anti-suicide pin in rememberance of a colleague who had died by suicide that same year.
Ah yes, real reasons to fire people. I’m glad they’ve made inroads against this type of behaviour. People have been too happy to put up with this behaviour and just walk away.
X to doubt
