You can fire people for anything, other than the protected classes (race, religion, sexual orientation, etc.).
Employment at will.

I agree I think it would be a shitty thing to do, but there is no law that prevents him from doing it.

A great story - not so great what happened to your car.

Almost seems surreal - mebbe you should make a short of it and post it on UTube.

connections go both ways. I work with a kid that got hired because his girl friends uncle is a superintendant in prominent oil company. He controls who get work. My company hired his "nephew", and he got put on my crew. He sucked at the job and was unreliable. We kicked him off and now our crew is black ball from that companies locations. My company isn't going to fire him. As long as he doesn't assault somebody and shows up to work pretty often his job is safe. That is the real world.

Hey, I would have said ANYTHING I could think of to stop someone from leaving the scene of a crime, especially if there was a Z involved! Tell the friend you know his Mommy for all I care. This DB wants to help someone try to avoid the consequences of their actions?! You did the right thing, OP. Too bad you had to cross paths with this woman again.

BTW, any Sex and the City fan would get the See You Next Tuesday response you gave her. I'll bet it sunk in a few seconds after you left!

The story about your 300zx is very sad. you had such a nice one. the 300zx is one of those cars thats old enough that if you didn't know what is, and its in amazing shape, you might think it was a brand new car.

However, the story about running into the woman, that is an awesome story! the only dissappointing thing is that the woman is 'driving' a 1995 mercedes. she shouldn't be driving anything. Driving is a privilage, and i think once you DUI you should lose that privilage for a very long time, and according to your story this DUI took place in April? even if it was April 2009, thats still too soon.
