If theres one HUGE takeaway I’ve learned over the years from you Micheal. ITS NOT OVER until it’s over. And this is far from over.

This is definitely a win for the LGBTQ community but I admittedly am cautiously optimistic. As a personal example, just as it is illegal to discriminate based on race and gender I was let go from my previous employer for “improperly training” a new employee. In 4 years I had never been given the opportunity to train anyone nor had performance issues. Oddly enough my dismissal occurred exactly 2 weeks after I spoke up about lack of opportunities for and racist commentary against me and 3 other African-American employees.

So while this Supreme Court decision is a victory, until “hire and fire at will” is dismantled businesses will be able to look for any bogus reason to discriminate.
