FACT CHECK: Convention speakers stray from reality

It applies to the two
companies that I've worked for over many years. If someone is fired
for cause, they cannot collect. Maybe you live in some other world
with different rules.

Perhaps you've never heard of "at will" employment. It seems your
experience is quite limited.

Check California's labor laws. It's my understanding (from two of my
customers in the state), that it is VERY difficult to fire an employee.

Of course creative employers can get around these restrictions. For example,
you have written memoranda, plus a signed consent form from the subject
employee, not to imbibe alcoholic beverages while on the job. The employer
then bolsters his suspicions by sworn testimony (a priest, a rabbi, and a
duck all walk into the company rest-room) attesting to witnessing the
accused drinking from a pint bottle of "Anchors Aweigh" rye whiskey.

Hint: In California, it's probably not kosher to require employees to
abstain from Marijuana.
