Gotta love the fake power trip stories on LinkedIn. Cringe fest.

Exactly. I'm not a lawyer but I struggle to find the legality of firing someone for showing up early for work. What nonsense.

No, this was firing for not showing up on a non working day

No this is what he DID. What you said is what he DIDN'T do. If a judge asked what did the employee do. He would have to confess that the guy showed up early for work. He didn't actively DO anything to get fired.That's my point.

No, this was firing someone for not showing up before the day they were told to start.

Depending on where this person is, as long as they weren't fired for something like their race, or religion, it is legal.
