Ex-McDonald's employee files discrimination suit
September 7, 2008
Chicago Tribune: A former employee of a Dryersville, Iowa, McDonald's has filed a complaint with the Iowa Civil Rights Commission alleging he was unlawfully fired because he's a gay man with HIV. Daniel Carver, 46, alleges that what began as a lack of promotions and fewer hours escalated to derogatory names, violence and death threats. He was fired in February 2008 after nearly four months at the restaurant.
