[QUOTE="soberups, post: 841637, member: 14668"] A better way to phrase this would be to say that the company can certainly [B][I]try[/I][/B] to fire you for almost anything, but only in extreme or obvious cases of wrongdoing by the employee will they risk owing back pay over a wrongful termination. Bottom line; [B]you cannot get fired for failing to score 100% on a word game[/B]. [B]Period[/B]. The safety stuff is useful to know and you should make a reasonable effort to learn it (while you are on the clock) but any supervisor who threatens to fire you for not reciting it verbatim is flat-out full of sh%t. It is [B][I]not[/I][/B] a condition of employment. [/QUOTE]
