Message: <blockquote data-quote="HardRightEdge" data-source="post: 753316">I didn't change the premise.  You parsed it the way you wanted to read it.My contention is that most folks, if sent home by their boss without pay for some alleged offense and told not to come back for a week, would avail themselves of whatever appeal or ombudsman process is available to them.  Football players are not unique in seeking to restore a lost paycheck if there is such a mechanism available to them.That people seek occupations knowing they forego income, whether for altruistic reasons or not wanting the headaches that come with more money (I'm familiar with the latter) is not in dispute.But once in a job, and told to go home without pay, most people will seek recourse if that avenue is open to them.  In a union setting, they might even be pressured to do so to avoid precedent or keep a lid on workplace sanctions.</blockquote>
