    Definitely don’t exercise your rights, especially when someone is infringing on them.

      Exercise your right
      Get fired for not being at work

      Is it wrongful termination? Absolutely. That’s not much comfort when you’re unable to make rent this month and can’t afford to sue for a barely above minimum wage job.

      It’s fucked up. But it’s the reality in the US.

      Sometimes food and shelter are more important than your rights. I wish I were nobler but that has been the fact before for me.

      Never missed an election though.
