Besides, it would never see court. As things stand, the worthless PEA people seem to stand behind might as well be toilet paper because it goes to arbitration. In the kangaroo court environment of arbitration, the company will win. Remember 3A.

And even before that, JB will simply ask you to come in, admit that you didn't clean by re-iterating the policy, concluding by having you sign an admission of "guilt". This will go in your secret file that any company can keep since there is no legal restriction or endorsement of personnel files. The next time something happens, you get more paperwork. Eventually when they have enough "insubordination" (see the BJ "BlueBook"), you will be terminated.

All is to say that BJ does everything from a legal stance. They talk of culture and other MBA 101 B.S. but they have all their legal paperwork ready to go for every scenario. Meanwhile, we have all allowed it.
