  1. I’m confused, how is this any different from calling someone that isn’t from a radio station? If Bluetooth was used than it sounds like we are placing the blame on this one guy .. What happened with the so called major walkout/no show .Real sad if this is all we can come up with . I understand that this probably wasn’t the best thing this employee should of done but at least he was on the job and working .

  2. it is illegal to fire someone for calling a radio , unless he has a prior reputation of not showing up to work.
    but regardless ,what does have to do with the snow storm? if he wasn’t told to come in to work ?
