Resistance to Firing

A friend asks a disabled man why he hasn't yet fired his abusive assistant. The disabled man replies that he doesn't want the assistant to go to prison, and doesn't think people would believe a disabled man's story anyway.
Remember that you must be satisfied with the services you receive.
This comic strip shows how many disabled people resist firing employees, even though those employees are not doing a good job.
