Reply #1: I was fired for cashing the check for my back-pay.

[Ikonoklast]

After losing an NLRB appeal, as I was getting the check handed to me my supervisor told me that "I didn't need to cash it."

It was for over $10,000.00 of unpaid overtime.

I cashed it, and got fired.

After I got my job back, a year later, with full back-oay and benefits, I asked my supervisor if the NLRB cashed the check for the fine levied against the company, which was over $100,000.00 for unfair labor practices.

He turned purple, but didn't say a thing.
