The Kentucky Kernel brings us the latest example of UK's sensitive and caring handling of an employee matter -- that of an employee having a gun locked in his glove compartment.
UK does not allow firearms of any kind on its property, unless they're carried by law officers. Evidently this includes firearms kept in complete compliance with the laws of Kentucky (section 8). In other words, UK doesn't appear to pay much attention to the law.
UK fired this employee, termination of employment always the easiest way to deal with personnel problems.
The employee is suing, of course. He and his attorney tried to work things out without an expensive, drawn-out lawsuit, but UK's said to have nearly all the attorneys in the area on retainer, so why should they care about lawsuits?
Besides, all publicity is good publicity, right?
