Anyone who has read even a little bit of this site willknow that I question the validity of the coming war. However, I support all the troops and hope they come home quickly and safely. I also expect that they and their families will recive the support of the nation while they are gone and when they come home.
Part of the support they receive is the protection of their jobs. Federal law requires employers to hire back anyone who is called up for deployment. Sadly, some employers try to get around that requirement. It would appear that automotive repair and supply giant Pep Boys is one of those employers.
There are plenty of other repair outfits around who give their military employees a fair shake, so, if it turns out that the allegations against Pep Boys are true, they've had their last dollar from me.
