In Woke World, everything must be made political and this must be shown constantly (hence one of the reasons the NFL is having a problem). We can’t just go get a burger anymore without a side of Wokeness
Oregon burger chain changes policy after employees wear ‘Abolish ICE’ buttons
Employees at a Pacific Northwest burger chain triggered a new policy after employees wore buttons that read “Abolish ICE†and “No one is illegal†with their uniforms.
Ten employees of fast food restaurant Burgerville, located in Portland, Ore., were sent home for a day last month when they refused to remove the buttons while on their shift, The Oregonian reported.
The silent protest came amid national outrage regarding the Trump administration’s “zero tolerance” immigration policy that previously separated thousands of migrant children from their parents at the US-Mexico border.
Calling for Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to be dissolved has become a popular pledge for many Democrats in the upcoming midterm elections.
Well, even in Oregon, there are people who complained, stating that they just wanted food, not personal and political viewpoints
“Guests provided feedback that they didn’t want to see personal and political messages while they ate,” Graham said. “Additionally, some employees expressed that the content of the buttons was drawing unwanted attention that made them uncomfortable.”
Wait, what? They wore the buttons and were upset that they drew “unwanted attention” that “made them uncomfortable”? What did they think was going to happen? Well, one thing that has happened is that the company now has an official written policy about wearing personal buttons, where they had previously just had a word of mouth type policy.
If they were wearing NRA buttons and such, I’d want them to remove them. Leave the politics at home. Have some propriety. And these kids should realize that future employers will see their conduct, their unwillingness to conform to company policy, their bringing of politics into the workplace causing problems with customers, and deep six their resumes.
They should also remember that an illegal alien just killed two Oregon residents while driving drunk. And another raped a girl younger than 14 earlier this year in Oregon. These are just some that made the national news, and who these Abolish ICE nuts are protecting.
When a union is advocating breaking federal law and to protect criminals it’s time to get rid of unions. They outlived their usefulness years ago.
You would pass laws to eliminate labor unions?
In their current form… Yes.
Nice to see somebody in business understands your employees are free to speak their minds – on their own time.
