Man Fired From Job Due to Dreadlocks Is Inundated With New Work Offers
I can see TMC's point if they require him to wear a hard hat and he can't because of his dreadlocks. At that point he has a decision to make walk away or get a hair cut.
Did anyone see this about TMC?

Have to get a good seal when wearing a respirator and a hard hat. A beard or too much hair won't allow the seal, so can't hire that person.
Can't imagine a married driver with a family turning down a good paying job because of his vanity.Last edited: Jul 23, 2021

Maybe they don't like their employees looking like they just crawled out from behind a dumpster. I haven't seen anybody with dreads that looked recently showered.

To me in this case he doesn't have grounds for a lawsuit and I agree with Chinatown race has nothing to do with it but that's the drum that is being beaten too often. Sadly lawyers will be tripping over themselves to take his case.

Love how the article starts with “A black man”
Let’s make everything about race.
Pretty sure I’ve seen guys with dreads wearing a hard hat. Stupid poorly fitting safety equipment, but required at TMC.
I think TMC may have made a costly mistake here, dunno.
Anybody with dreads here that can fill me in on whether or not you can manage a hard hat? -
I’ve seen plenty wearing a hard hat, seen plenty of black folks trucking for TMC. This world is a ####ing joke anymore

They are braids. Man braids. Just like a man bun. And equally as awful.
