Is the newsworthy claim that this firing was illegally retaliatory?

In other words, is the claim that Chris Smalls was being vocal in reporting safety/health issues and was illegally fired as a result?

It's the most likely explanation, despite Amazon's obfuscations.

Really? Because the employee admits that he went to work despite being exposed to a covid-19 person, and despite being ordered not to.

Those facts are not even in dispute.

He was exposed 18 days before he was ordered to quarantine. Please do not try to say that there is some factual basis.

So? He did not get a covid-19 test, so for all Amazon knows, he's a carrier. There are plenty of lightly-symptomatic people who are ill and contagious for longer than 14 days.

Weird how no one else around him was quarantined. If he was contagious, then why didn't they quarantine everyone he was in contact with as well?

Maybe because it was bullshit and retribution on Amazon's part.

That is what he claims. If you only believe one side of the story - then obviously you'll side with that side.
