just thought i'd randomly participate, you could try to sue him (although really you found a new job anyway) but for some reason I doubt it would work. If it was  because you were a different ethnicity or something, but society is odd that way >.>. Wonder if any of my friends know <.<, >.>, /gets suspicious

Lawyers are expensive, it's hard to say whether or not suing him would be worth it. It would just be more time and hassle, and you're happy with the job you ended up with. *shrugs* It's up to you.

I agree, sue him.
Its the same discrimination as "laying off" someone who is Gay/Lesbian/Bi, Black/Hispanic/Other, or based on their religion.
I'd highly recommend sueing him also so their wont be another case like that agianst anyone else.

Atleast you have a better job now :P

i'm not sure how the society would feel about cruelty to furries though >.> so that could change the ruling.

As im at work today, my boss find out im a furry and fires me because of it. About 3 hours later my friend got fired to because he was a furry. I was one of the best worker there. I worked the longest, almost the cheapest, and almost never was wrong. (worked in computer tech stuff) Just because im a furry isnt a reason to fire me. Least i got another job already....

Just though i'd share this with you.


(BTW  :fu: <-- to you, my old boss, and all you other furry haters out there.)

Please leave a comment too.

i may come across if a (censored), but why the heck would someone fire a furry because he's addapted to a lifestyle he likes.... i dont believe its just that, there's no such thing as "furry hate" its all exagerated truth of people being annoyed with some parts of the fandom because they dont understand what this lifestyle is about, and IF your boss fired you because he found out, it be because he doesn't quite understand the fandom

or have you been doing (by society) unaccepted stuff at your workplace?, in that case its not a big shocker.
Posted on: May 17, 2008, 03:13:47 PM
I knew there where furry haters at work so i tryed to keep it un known.
Im not really sure how he found out but he did. No he called me a sick animal (i dont know if i could post the last word on these forums but i think you know what it is.)
He was calm but i could feel his happiness in getting rid of a furry.

ok, here's when i start wondering
first of all, everyone on this board is human, furry is mostly a online identity/social group, and i fail to see how he could call you a sick animal since he's probably been knowing you, and knowing how you are probably just as much human as anyone in that workplace.

and seriously, lay of the hater talk, its just gonna get you people depressed, i said so before, and i'll do it again, there's no such thing as a worldwide hate against the furry fandom, there's no group against it, there's no serious crime going on because of it, i think you should find out how big the meaning of the word hate really is before you start accusing people of hating you

and the thing of him being happy to get rid of a furry, IF it was true, he probably saw the wrong side of the fandom, and saw it as something perverted, because thats easily the most reknown part of the fandom.. ah well, congrats on your new job anyways

Get a lawyer and sue for discrimination. if you can't have that job, and already have another on, why not make out as much as you could from a civil suit?

its not discrimination, thats the whole problem, furries arent in any way different from regular people, so its just as impossible to sue discrimination on furries as it would be on (for example) goths or punks

again, i seriously dont want to come across as a idiot, but im looking at it from a logical perspective

That we are on the good side or the ''not so good side'' part of the fandom, it a whole  and we are part of it. It is up to the person to choose what they want to see-do or not. We will never change people perception. And if he don't understand both side of the fantom then it was up to him to explain it to his boss.

Everyone have their perspective on thing-people and we need to be more open than by the first thing you read and see or get talk about. Me as a professional I can deal with that but it is hard for other to do it and won't be able to change someone if we don't make the circonstance clear.

Sueing is not the option in this case but yea guess we cannot change people from usa.
