Most jobs are "at will." This can translate to someone not liking your tattoo or color of your skin and finding a way for you to be let go. Ever been 1 minute late to work? Failed to make finish a project on time? Checked your bid on ebay on the company computer? These are all reasons a company could give for letting you go. Trying to prove intent in a unemployment hearing is pretty pointless.
I don't disagree with the law or it's intent, but the reality is the law can only be used in extremely flagrant cases.
Sell it as new and put the money towards something that's built for the purpose you want it for. Bit easier than staring into the red rings of death
There, fixed that for you.
