Costco fired a guy for “not normal” hair color

This is from a few years ago… I was working on the floor of a warehouse when a temp worker (he was black) came in one day with auburn dyed hair. Management flipped their shit (mostly white) and told him to go home and cut it. He did. Only for the next day to show up and be terminated. Why you might ask? because it was considered a no-call no-show… even though MANAGEMENT told him to go home. And since he was in his first 6 month probationary period, he could legally be fired for any reason. I was fucking appalled and knew then that I couldn't work there long term
