"Fire at will" is not an employment status in any state!!!
Travis Wilson <travisw@pdq.
let me add something that a lot of folks may be leaving out. In Texas, a
fire at will state, the best thing an employee can do is to get a
written employement contract that requires "cause" for firing. Other
then that, most employers (not covered by some fed statute) can fire for
any reason they want. Employees can protect themselves in that fashion.
The contracts can set out what "cause" means and what it consists of.
if an employer is not willing to do that, then the employee needs to
understand from the start that there are no "promises" and no
"guarantees"
employees are employed "at the will of" the employer.
and language like:
> Some people just like to proceed on the assumption they are
> better than others and the others just don't deserve any
> concern - if that's you, go ahead an enjoy yourself but stop
> pretending you are part of the fight for justice (by BDSM
> people or others).
or

> would have been happy to own slaves, beat their women, etc.
has no place in reasoned discussion of this sort. There are at least two sides to this question that are rational for folks on this list to take. Maybe three. We are not always talking about IBM or Exxon here. We are often talking about a mom and pop company that barely pays the rent. So demanding that "mom and pop" run the risk that society is not willing to run is not necessarily a "good or right" position. Demanding that "mom and pop" keep folks that they are not comfortable around employed during times that the employee is not productive may not be a great moral demand.
