: for the retail and resaurant industry called automated
: food service accounting software. I allowed my employer
: to test it in several unit across the US back in 1999
: in 10/00 I was discharged from employment
: and my employer still continues to use my software in
: 10 of thier units across the US. It will expire in 10 days
: but is it legal for them to use this material in
: light of my discharge?
: Thank you. Mike Dear Mike,
From what you say the employer has not clear rights. I can't understand the 10 day bit. M. Arthur Auslander
