Let me start this by saying that I believe every person capable of working, should work, although I put some restrictions on exactly what sort of jobs some people should be allowed to have. Take for instance the teller at my local bank. I wouldn't a former bank robber filling that position. Even more, I wouldn't want a known child abuser babysitting my kids. Or a mass murderer working as the greeter at my local Walmart. You see, some people just shouldn't have some jobs.
Willard Hyslop had a job. In fact, he had what most people would consider a good job. And then some people complained, and he lost his job. Now, Hyslop wants his job back. And, his employer wants to give him his job back. Only, there are still those that think Willard Hyslop shouldn't have that job. So, he's sueing.
Hyslop worked as a firefighter for Kenockee Township. As part of that job, he fought fires- of course. But he also did other things. Like participate in parades, and work at nonemergency elementary school events. His says "He's a real hard-working guy. We never had a problem with him on our department," and is fully supporting him in his efforts.
The issue which caused Hyslop his job was a conviction in December 1992, for which he served a year in jail and 36 months probation.
The crime?
Rewind to the part where he attended community parades and school events, as part of his employment with the township fire department.
There are certain people we tell our children to trust, because we know that if there is ever the need for them- these are the people whose sole purpose of employment is to serve and protect. These are just normal jobs- they come with responsibility and the need for the public to be able to trust those doing the jobs. Yeah, Hyslop might be very capable of putting out fires, but he's not really the type of person I want comforting a child at the scene of an accident.
