Fired for submitting my 5 week notice
So today I notified my employer that I will no longer be working for this company in 5 weeks. I felt like that was the least I could do considering how well they have treated me as an employee and just a human being in general. I have a pretty specialized job, that the company is having a hard time filling due to their lack of desire to pay what my skills are worth.

I'll be quitting tomorrow, and this will be my chance for some get back before I walk out. It can't be anything illegal; I'm not giving her the chance to call the cops on me. Do you have some ideas?
Texas State Employees Union has begun enrolling service members on state active duty in Texas after the DOJ recently said in a court filing that a federal law prohibiting military unions does not apply to soldiers on state active duty. To our knowledge, this is the first time in american history that a union has enrolled service members in their military capacities. This comes after thousands of soldiers were involuntarily activated by Gov. Greg Abbott for Texas' border mission, Operation Lone Star. In addition to a string of recent suicides, soldiers on the mission have complained of poor living conditions, pay issues, equipment shortages, reduced benifits, and political motivations for their activation.
