AN AMUSEMENT park has offered to rehire a special needs employee after his co-worker took to social media to lambaste the company for firing him.
Christopher Emery’s mother tells The Allentown Morning Call she doesn’t want her 29-year-old son to return to Dorney Park and Wildwater Kingdom in Pennsylvania, US, because of how he was treated.
“Why humiliate him twice?” she said. “It wouldn’t have changed. It would have been the same thing. Chris is Chris. The whole interview was not set up for special-needs people, that’s what it boils down to.”
Emery has cleaned bathrooms at the park for 12 seasons, and his mother says he looks forward to the job. This week, she was told Emery didn’t do well in an interview and wasn’t being rehired.
Fellow Dorney park worker Matt Redline wrote an angry Facebook post that went viral about “his buddy Chris” losing his job. It has been liked more than 50,000 times so far, and shared more than 30,000 times.
The post was shared widely, leading him to post this update.
Mike Fehnel, the park’s general manager, says the company respects and values all of their workers, and they want Emery back.
