A Pittsburg hospital allegedly fired a maintenance worker for rejecting the promotion of transgender ideology on company forums, according to a former employee who spoke exclusively with Libs of TikTok.
Tom F., a former plumber with the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center (UPMC), told Libs of TikTok that he was fired on June 24 after replying to a picture posted to the hospital systemâs Yammer account. UPMC offers Yammer â a social media platform â for employees to share announcements and thoughts.
One employee posted a picture with the phrase, âYou donât turn queer kids into dead kids,â according to pictures obtained by Libs of TikTok. Tom responded to the post by calling it âdisingenuous and disgustingâ to claim that lack of affirmation for a childâs trans identity leads to suicide.
âIâm not sure why this popped up on my feed, but this is disingenuous and disgusting,â Tom said, adding âFor UPMC to allow filth like this to be posted on the company message board is disturbing.â
âWhy do you need to talk [with] kids about sex anyway? Itâs creepy and pedophilic,â he continued.
Tom told Libs of TikTok that when he logged onto his computer on June 16, the post was the first thing that popped up on his page. He said that post âgoes against everything I am forâ and that his opinions on the topic are superfluous as he is never face-to-face with clients or patients.
The maintenance worker alleges he was first sent to UPMCâs Human Resources Department on June 17, just one day after making the June 16 post, where he received a suspension letter. On June 24, Tom claims his boss and representatives of his union let him know he was terminated.
Tomâs termination letter states that he was terminated for violating the companyâs âharassment-free workplaceâ and âsocial networkingâ policy.
Tom said this was his first documented offense after just shy of six years in the hospital system.
Be it Big Tech or corporations, people are forced to conform to the Leftâs gender ideology. Any questioning of this narrative can result in a Twitter suspension â something Iâve dealt with far too many times â or, even worse, losing your ability to provide for you family. But I refuse to conform to this ideology, and neither should you.
UPMC did not respond to Libs of TikTokâs request for comment.
