American worker's rights

That's just repulsive! This article says in US-America, at least in most of the states, it's perfectly legal for every employer to dismiss employees for the habits they cultivate off work. In the reported case, smoking. (Article on CBS News)

Thank you, Carol, for pointing this out in your blog.

Yep, welcome to the USA, where the companies and businesses have the ultimate freedom, and the people are treated little better than slaves. I work for the state govt., where at least they have some protection and laws (and more holidays too). I'm afraid to work for a company in the US anymore
