[QUOTE="cheryl, post: 4374516, member: 1"] [URL='https://nypost.com/2020/02/20/ex-ups-worker-says-company-fired-him-for-eating-a-pear/'][B]Ex-UPS worker says company fired him for eating a pear - New York Post[/B][/URL] A former UPS employee in Manhattan with severe disabilities is suing the parcel service for firing him over eating a pear — claiming it was just trying to get rid of him because of his health conditions, a lawsuit filed in Manhattan federal court alleges. William Cortez, who started working at UPS’s Battery Park location back in 2004, claims it was “UPS policy and practice” for staff to share expiring perishables shipped through their service to avoid throwing out “perfectly edible food,” the lawsuit claims. Cortez’s supervisors notified him of the policy when he started working there and told him the only caveat was that food couldn’t be removed from the building or taken home, it must be enjoyed inside the office, the suit states.
