Guy in the Lab in his 60's - still great at his job - canned because his wife had late stage cancer and needed a lot of treatment. Those in the Lab knew that he smoked weed (the entire Production department also smoked). They tested him and no one else. Bro had an art to conducting a Farinograph that will be lost to time. His wife passed less than a year later.
The same company (very illegally) fired everyone trying to unionize a few decades ago, so it tracks out. They just didn't know how to form a collective and make a Class Action.
This is vile. Wow.
You're welcome! I'm sorry for sharing. A lot of people left that place far worse off than me, and it was a tragic introduction to inequity for me. I'm here because I'm horrified. Most people should be. I'll give you more details in a DM if you have any questions.
Thank you
