This is what you get for practicing free speech.

[Slyhunter]

I lost my job yesterday.
I posted on a news site that even the Muslims who don't promote violence do want a world wide caliphate and their means to get it is by out breeding non-muslims.
Facebook banned me for 24 hours.
My boss fired me.
I sell car parts for a living, or I did.
Now I have to get another job that pays a living wage and explain why I was fired.
Free speech is only for the rich.

oh, and I hit up an online lawyer brokerage center with my wrongful termination suit. Not a single one has called my number or emailed me 24 hours later.

/----/ Sorry you lost your job. Been there done that.
1.) At your next interview, simply explain your department was consolidated (it was when you were fired) and you're now looking for the next opportunity. DON'T GET INTO DETAILS. DON'T HAVE A CHIP ON YOUR SHOULDER and UNFRIEND YOUR OLD COLLEAGUES better yet drop off FB for awhile.
3.) Remember, most small companies never check references and your old company could face a libel suit if they defame you so they only list the dates you were hired and when you left.
4.) Ask for at least 10% more at your next interview.
5.) I sold to lawyers for 18 years. They are notorious for not answering emails or returning calls even if it's from a prospective client. Trust me on that one.

Good luck.

I'm not good at lying. How about I just post that they fired me for expressing a political opinion on a news site on my own time?

What do you think freedom of speech is, exactly?

It's not the freedom to say whatever you want, whenever you want, in case you were wondering.

So you boss can fire you for that post according to you.

Hey he is a sales guy and said something on FB which insulted a lot of customers...

Customers leave then a downsize is needed and many get fired....

He caused the problem and Boss fixed it... Remember the customer is always right...

That I believe was my bosses position, though he didn't state it that way.

An employer has no obligation to honor your free speech....only the government does

You posted stuff that could potentially damage your employer or destroy the morale of the workforce

Glad you got fired.....maybe you won't publicize your hate next time

Stating a simple fact 1. Muslims want to take over the world (some peacefully some not peacefully) but they all want a world wide caliphate. and 2. The peaceful ones do it by out breeding non-muslims.

What about that is hate? What about that is a lie?

 

[Slyhunter]

The OP had the right to say what he said.

Has anyone disputed that? I don't think so. Indeed he's not been disabused of that right.

Yes. Some have disputed that.

What's disputed is whether his employer has the right to fire him.

I got a well known lawyer to take my case. He only gets paid if he wins. We shall soon see.

Not my problem

Your misinformation is intended to generate fear and hate against Muslims

Your employer doesn't need your shit and sent you packing

Wise move

How do you know that you lost your job for making that post, how did your employer discover your post? What did your employer say when he canned you?

He pulled up my facebook account and showed me the post I made.

 

[jillian]

Why were you FB friends with your boss?

no. A Customer of our company read the comment, linked back to my FB account, found out where I was working and emailed it to him.

maybe you shouldn't have allowed your FB page to be public if you're going to publish things that are embarrassing to your employer.

I'm pretty sure that your employee handbook prohibited your behavior.

If your employee handbook says you violated by posting, they are right. If the handbook says nothing about social media posts, they are toast.

I don't care about your personal situation. I'm interested in the principles involved. Unless an employee is under contract, an employer is under no obligation to continue employing a person, regardless of their reason for declining.
