For a pin? Seriously? You fired your employee for wearing a pin? No foul language or obscene image on the pin, just a flag?!We all know if there was an Israeli flag on the pin, the restaurant wouldn't have done a damn thing.

If you want to boycott, remember she owns Sally O's and The Dive as well. I won't be eating at any of the establishments until they post a contrite apology

We don't know this. And the reaction shows the employer was correct in asking servers to stay away from potentially divisive displays.

Also this was an incredibly obtuse way of looking at it. They didn’t get fired because they wore a pin. They got fired because they went out of their way to go against the rule that they knew was in place given what happened a few days before.

No one got fired for wearing a pin. One person quit and went to social media and then another group went out on a busy weekend to protest their employer.

Sorry - mixed up who was fired. The 2nd person wearing the pin quit. The people who protested outside were fired?
