To many companies are taking advantage of the Missouri "AT WILLl" law. What's this mean? They can fire you for NO REASON. In todays economy, jobs are hard to come by. Employers are using this law to their advantage to insure that their family and friends are employed,or simply because they do not like you as a person, rather it be the sound of your voice, the way you walk etc... unjust reasons to fire a person, while the employees they just fired, are unable to find work and take care of their families. I believe this law needs to change IMMEDIATELY. Employers should not be able to fire an employee without just cause, such as, attendence, insoborination, drugs, etc...If an employer was to fire an employee without just cause and proof of that cause, the employer should have to pay a fine of $10,000.00. If you agree with this petition, please sign below and pass this on to your friends so as they can sign as well. I need 1,000 signitures. Thank You in advance.

This is common sense. Tired of companies hiring their cousins and firing hard workers just to save a buck. Need more job security in MO.

Lost my job last month for absolutely nothing. Boss just didnt like me. It isnt right that they can just toss people out like trash.
