Kentucky Man Gets $450,000 Settlement Over Being Fired Following Unwanted Birthday Party

1. IS BECAUSE IS BECAUSE LOL

2. Something along these lines happened to me during my sophomore year of college. I was having a bad series of anxiety attacks and told my friends I wanted to spend my bday alone. To assure them I wasn’t in a depressed state, I told them my plans…I was going to see a play and then go back to my dorm to relax for the evening. My childhood friends understood, my roommate understood(who I had only met a month ago)…however, one of my friends that I met freshman year did not. She got a few mutual acquaintances and surprised me at the theatre…the had all bought tickets…I bought my ticket early so we weren’t near each other. However I could no longer anonymously watch the show. As the plan neared it’s close I could feel my anxiety go through the roof. I dashed out of the theater, ran to my dorm and pretty much rode out a really bad attack. However, I became the bad guy because I left and the friend cried. They claimed I was ungrateful for not being appreciative of what she did. When my roommate found out what happened, she was pissed and wanted to tell her off because she thought it was incredibly self-centered of my friend to do that after I had been vulnerable with her. It was all a bad scene until a mutual male acquaintance of ours asked me what happened. He understood and spoke with the friend. I also told the friend how incredibly insensitive it was for her to not only show up but add to the pressure by coming with multiple people after I had told her why I wanted to be alone. The friendship started to slowly die off…I believe the clincher was when a few weeks later we were having a chat and she said depressed people choose to be sad. I wasn’t dealing with depression at the time but I realized then that would never be a real friendship between us.

3. That workplace sounds like cookie cutter hell- this is why i love breakfast club!

4. Damn right!!!! Run me my money…. PERIOD!!!!!

5. Rest in peace drama King condolence to the family your soul live on

6. This is what happens when those intolerable “birthday fanatics” get in charge of a company. I would’ve given the man more $$$

7. Rest in peace DJ Kay slay condolence to the family your soul live on

8. Wow😳

9. Shouldn’t have fired him, these ppl act like he ain’t have a right to be angry

10. Don’t be fooled the reason his suit was successful was because they retaliated against him. The act of simply signing happy birthday isn’t enough

11. Nothing like waking up to a dotd y’all usually wait until y’all clocking out to post it 🤣

12. I should have sued my store for that time we had to unload trucks and all my coworkers clocked out at the same time and I had to unload two trucks by myself!

13. Envy said “can I sue up here”
    Lmao 🤣 I’m sure you can sue for a few reasons Envy 👀

14. Looooooooook AYE, happy birthday 😭😂😂😂😂😂😂

15. He’s not suing because they threw him a birthday party. He’s suing because they fired him due to his response to the birthday party.

16. Everybody please don't let this moment pass please make the best decision of your life right now by allowing our God in heaven to come into your life by you praying to God everyday for his help in every decision of your life everyday and in every situation of your life everyday for I guarantee if you do this everyday then your life will get better, you will have more peace, you will be more successful, you will have more happiness, and all your dreams will come true that’s because when you pray to God then God will make all good things possible for you and you must not forget to read the “Holy Bible” everyday and a great place for you to start in the holy Bible is (Psalms 1) and everyday after that read a chapter in Psalms till you finish all the chapters in Psalms then after that start on (Proverbs 1) then everyday after that read a chapter in Proverbs till you finish all the chapters in Proverbs and after that read every chapter of the Holy Bible until you finish it for it will change your life in the most amazing way

17. Employer was an idiot. Guy had one wish, they go against it and fire him…lmao recipe for lawsuit. Jobs gotta learn just to leave people the eff alone. If they doin they work, just leave them the eff alone. Screw work parties, happy hour. Etc.

18. I feel him tho… I never liked birthday parties and my family would throw me a “surprise” party every year!! 😫🤦🏽‍♂️ I never made a thing about it cause I know it was out of love but in retrospect I should’ve been more adamant about my boundaries and what I did and didnt want for MY birthday.

19. $450,000 is a lot of money! I didn’t know you can sue a company for throwing you a birthday party! I missed out on a lot of money smh 🤦🏾‍♀️

20. I’m socially awkward also Charla, especially during this Plandemic too!!!!

21. Run him a check

22. He sounds soft idk he should have been fired but if he was white I get y they thought he was gonna b mad

23. I'm about to sue my mom for celebrating my birthday because she hired a Mariachi band to assault me with whip cream on my face

24. I'm with buddy. I told you specifically not to do this because of this or that reason. Your joy can take a backseat to my peace. #RunThatSchmoney

25. Boss🤣🤣🤣🤣

26. Poor guy. Anxiety is real.

27. The fact that they fired him…yeah run my mans that check immediately.

28. More people need to sue these Jobs because they refuse to learn

29. They shoulda just been like mayne F your birthday like he requested 🤣

30. In my book $450,000 is a complete sentence too.

31. No overreaction. He stated his wishes and they went against them. Simple as that.

32. Damn.
