“it’s for your own good”

Wal-mart fired this guy for his own good

Thirty-year-old former Wal-Mart employee Joseph Casias used marijuana to treat the symptoms of an inoperable brain tumor and sinus cancer.

Casias was fired in 2009 after testing positive for marijuana. He had been successfully employed for more than five years by a Wal-Mart in Battle Creek and began using medical marijuana after voters approved the Michigan Medical Marihuana Act in
2008

I especially like this part:

“This is just an unfortunate situation all around, and we’re sympathetic
to Mr. Casias’s condition,” Wal-Mart spokesman Greg Rossiter said. “Walmart has to consider the overall safety of our customers and our associates, including Mr.
Casias

Wal-mart is basically saying, yeah we know this guy got screwed but we did it for his own good.
