But negotiation clearly wasn't on this guy's agenda: he made the decision completely unilaterally.
This was the second year he had dyed his hair pink. He got nowhere with his negotiations the year before where they told him to cover it and he complied. This year the stance was much tougher with no room for negotiation. If he was doing it to be a jerk or tick off management, i'd be on the side of the company. Sleep Country deserves to be demonised when many other companies choose to allow thier employees to show thier support. And it's not like the public doesn't know what pink stands for.
