The Orioles have stepped to the plate to assure that none of their part-time employees are hurt financially from the civil unrest in Baltimore that recently affected six games that were scheduled to be played at Camden Yards.
The team will pay the hourly employees who lost work hours during the week of April 27 due to the rioting.
"Due to the extraordinary circumstances that led to several cancelled or rescheduled games, the Orioles organization will compensate all hourly employees for hours that would have been ordinarily worked the week of April 27. This adjustment will be added to your 5/29 paycheck," the Orioles said in a Tuesday letter to employees.
John Angelos made a statement (actually a series of tweets) during the riots where he mentioned how selling our manufacturing jobs overseas helped to create the situation in Baltimore. I tend to agree with him. At any rate, now I feel bad for always believing he was a d-bag frat boy.
An extremely generous gesture. I hope those Baltimorons who were the cause of this chaos notice.
