Poll: Girls, have you ever used them as weapons?
Before switching to contacts, I wore eyeglasses. Regular eyeglasses cannot take the place of safety goggles, which cover the entire eye area. With eyeglasses, there are many spaces and open areas through which a chemical could seep, causing much injuries. I always wore my goggles over my eyeglasses. Despite looking even dorkier, I experienced no discomfort or problems. If your glasses bother you so much, switch to contacts. But, never forget to wear goggles!
Most states follow a doctrine called at-will employment which means that employees can leave anytime they want and be fired for any reason that is not illegal (i.e. discriminatory, whistle blowing, etc), if your state is an at-will employment state and there was no discrimination it might not be illegal. If your friend was under contract and they were filed for a reason not allowed by the contract then they would have a breach of contract case. If there was discrimination involved in the termination or other sort of misconduct, then your friend might have a case. It is never a bad idea to contact a lawyer to discuss your legal rights.
I'm sure the lab glasses are big enough to fit over regular ones.. My chemistry teacher wore glasses and she wore the safety ones aswell.. Guess you can go without, but it's always better to be safe than sorry
Safety goggles are available to fit over eyeglasses. Regular eyeglasses do not provide side protection and may also lack adequate impact resistance so they do not function as safety glasses.
It's a sin to kill a mockingbird. Tom Robinson the mockingbird. It's hard to explain, hopefully someone else will do a better job than me! Lol.
