dyk Sean is not quitting.

dyk and he's certainly not "walking off the job" or anything like that

dyk he will find a new job, give notice (if he can -- depends on pay variance to new job whether we can literally "afford" to give a notice) or they will have to fire him

dyk Sean is firmly planted below the green area with many drastic drops well below the blue line -- bipolar II

dyk Abi has depressive periods, then shifts to mania and then transition... then we do it again

dyk we are officially completing our 2nd full manic-depressive episode -- each episode lasts 27 months all inclusive

dyk there was an 18 month even-level-mooded transition period between the 1st episode and the second

dyk so Sean didn't sign anything -- the "policy" is on a sheet of printer paper

dyk and he talked to some coworkers and they haven't been notified

dyk as far as I know... Sean is currently being discriminated against?

dyk he may be filing a complaint in the morning as he is now the only employee at his work who is being told they cannot do side work as a conflict on interest

dyk I've been chomping at the bit to formally complain about SOMEONE since -- well months now ROFLMAO

dyk he talked about the new policy - the Sean Madsen clause -- with the girls in the office and one of them reacted very badly -- b/c it meant that Sean did side work but that he was not going to do her car -- which needed some repairs and she couldn't afford to bring it up to their work and she didn't trust the other guys apparently but would have brought it to Sean had she known -- but Sean told her no, under the new policy he couldn't take her on as a customer

dyk here is the new policy -- that applies (to everyone they said) to Sean lol

dyk this is word for word with company named removed for confidentiality buahahah

automotive company name here
Conflict of Interest Company Policy

Soliciting and repairing customer's vehicles that compete with the type of business COMPANY NAME performs, including diagnosis & repair and resale of parts used in repairs. Use of company materials, resources and vendor discount accounts for purposes of repairing vehicles that conflict with this policy.

Violating any of part of this policy will result in immediate termination of employment.

dyk NOTE the typo or misgrammar there in the last line and there's not even a complete sentence in the first part.

dyk and DEFINE CUSTOMER

dyk it seems to me... that if all the techs (or even a group of) perform side work... but only Sean is told he's fired if he continues... then this applies --

Discrimination is the prejudicial treatment of an individual based on their membership in a certain group or category. It involves the actual behaviors towards groups such as excluding or restricting members of one group from opportunities that are available to another group
