It's difficult to quit when your working permit it connected to the company. Is this legal to fire someone over though?
Legality doesn't matter if someone's too rich and connected and privileged for most laws to really matter anyway.
That's another part of the story. But usually when there are existing court cases that have dealt with this subject it will be fight able. Let's just hope this garbage is over rather sooner than later.
There's been worse crimes out there from others, but not such garish bumbling clownish crimes like all the zone violations of the obnoxious Le Epic X corporate headquarters symbol strobe lighting some city blocks, for example.
This is such an apt comparison actually. In particular the taking Tesla private at $420 a share or whatev was such egregious market manipulation.
There's also the "betting a signed dollar" defaming of the rescue diver that actually rescued those fucking kids but
was too oily and slippery from affluenza to get any consequences from that either.
That was unbelievable. Like on what planet was that not libel lol
Ah well nevertheless
There's no way ol' Elmo will weasel his way out of this jam!
All it takes is rich assholes believing in the richer asshole or at the very least having too much money already riding with the richer asshole.
