I wanted to bring up a series of posts by @Moriarty for all admire (although I do recommend the thread as a whole for a read, with many posters, including the ever-popular @Ann_Hedonia making good points) from the ongoing Thedacare thread - > [@Judge prevents at-will hospital employees from quitting and working new jobs \[resolved: they may quit/start new jobs\]](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/judge-prevents-at-will-hospital-employees-from-quitting-and-working-new-jobs-resolved-they-may-quit-start-new-jobs/958223/99): > > Yes, I believe that you are correct. Which is why it will be interesting to see how this case ultimately concludes. I can see a facility scrambling to overcome the fact that it just had a bunch of key employees all walk out en masse when they just need a few more weeks to handle the huge turnover, and I can see a poorly run hospital whining because it is overworking and underpaying its staff. I freely acknowledge that I don’t know what is underlying this case. Additionally, and as long as I… Again, this is the specific post that most caught my attention, but throughout @Moriarty was trying to be a voice of reason, wanting the details, admitting that all the pre-review info looked bad, but making a point that this was being dealt with in an accelerated manner and that we might have an answer by Monday (which was yesterday). To quote the scenario he put at the end of that post - > “Here’s what I’m going to do. Since you are telling me that there are patients who might die, I’m going to sign this temporary. But you better bring me more than the fact that it is hurting your client’s accreditation, or that these people all decided to go to the same new job, if you want the final. People can work where they want. > > In fact, I don’t want to sit on this. If I clear my calendar Monday, can everybody get in here to finish this? The law requires both sides to have a meaningful chance to be heard, so you’ve got the entire afternoon. But then I’m making my ruling.” Which is (largely) what happened, they didn’t make the case and the Temporary Restraining Order was lifted. Which means **Moriarity** may well be prophetic, or, come to think of it, I’ve never seen them and Outagamie County Circuit Court Judge Mark McGinnis in the same place at the same time… Hmmm. Seriously, while a bit stressful (tempers were high regarding the TRO and treatment of worker’s rights in this case), the thread is adorned with moments of glory, including several takedowns of Thedacare’s “defense” and some awesome ‘what if the situation was reversed?’ hypotheticals - not to mention the opposing attorney’s summary brief regarding Thedacare’s actions was a monument of legal snark. Anyway, hat’s off to @Moriarty, who may or may not (Inquiring minds want to know!) be Judge Mark MacGinnis, and if not, if said Judge is a poster here (or googling themselves), an earned “Well done.” from myself. --- _[View the full topic](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/unofficial-all-sdmb-this-post-poster-makes-my-day-thread/944570)._
