>> I'm sorry. Is it a right to work state like here? Phillipa
>I think that's what it's called. I spoke with a lawyer about it once and he told me that we (he and I) live in a "slave" state in the sense that we work at the will of our employers, and as employees we had extremely limited, if any, rights. So you could show up for work wearing an outfit that the business owner didn't like - it doesn't have to be inappropriate, he doesn't have to give any reason at all - and you can be legally fired for it.
>That's when I started trying really hard to find some way to become self employed. I'd say I'm about 40% successful.Geez, is that what they call it? The right to work? Oh my goodness. Who thought that up? We still have awards even.
