If CA is an At Will state, it won't matter. They can terminate him for any reason.

California is a an at will state. They could fire him for any reason, but depending on his contract Disney may still have to payout.

As I understand it, "At Will" doesn't supplant discrimination protections. So, you can't fired someone solely because they are a member of a protected class. Federal protected classes include sex, race, age (40+), disability, color, creed, national origin, and religion. Some states/counties/cities have include sexual orientation and gender identity as protected classes.

Caveat: I am not a lawyer, but I did play one on TV once. (Seriously.)

That's all true, but not at issue in this case, right? Pretty tough to claim age discrimination on this one... ...

The way I see it, all they have to do is say, "we have several employees who feel uncomfortable working with you and/or for you, and we believe this is an issue we are unable to resolve through mediation or less severe methods."

When I lived in South Florida my wife and I ate at Sweet Tomatoes at least once a week. It was a favorite spot. When we moved to Alabama the closest one was in Atlanta. Whenever we go by one in Atlanta we stop. Similarly, on many of our annual trips to her family in FL we stop at this one in Orlando. I will be very sad to see it go as I might have to reroute an already long journey to find another one I can roll on and off the Interstate in the motorhome to eat at!

I live in Atlanta, so you got me curious. Had never heard of this chain. There's a handful in the atlanta area, but none actually in the city of atlanta (one has an atlanta address, but it's actually either in Dunwoody or Sandy Springs). They're all north of the city. Too far away for me to casually try, oh well.
