I am in texas got fired said i was rude by ask for i d to enter a bar i worked at door?

Question

is it a criminal act to not check i d at a bar in texas

Answer 1

Sounds like you have a case to me. Check w/a lawyer. It's against the law to not ID when someone buys liquor at the store. What's the difference at a bar????

Answer 2

I believe texas is a right to work state, employers can terminate without cause. It becomes a sketchy area as
most if not all states require ID verification for drinking establishments. I'd think this would be company policy. If complaints of rudeness were levied against you Companies have an obligation to address it. If you were acting in the normal performance of your duties and someone perceived you being rude by doing so then It's my guess you have a complaint that can be filed with the EEOC in a wrongful termination suit. Your employer (or former employer) can be charged for wrongful termination if they don't have documentation attesting to.. If their stated premise of termination was because of rudeness, IF you intend to fight it, they need to provide examples of these acts of rudeness or likely will be remanded to rehire.

If as you say you were simply asking for ID, then you'd be negligent in your duties and could be terminated for that. So, in effect asking for ID created assumption of rudeness..

If you force the issue the case may go to court and the employer will be required to rehire or provide just cause for termination. Just cause can be insubordination, intoxication or incompetence. They will have to document why you were terminated.

Better bet, find a different job and inform your friends to not frequent that establishment and tell them to spread the word.

Bad PR because of employer/employee relations puts a lot of companies out of business.

Answer 3

Also check with TABC (should have a TABC certification anyways). The rule usually states that you have the right to ID anyway who looks under 25.
