No. The first amendment protects against *government* overreach. A private business is not subject to that in this case.

Answer:

The First Amendment; freedom of religion, freedom of speech, freedom of the press, freedom to assemble, freedom to petition the government.

Freedom of Speech isn't exactly obligated in this sentence, but it's hard to come-by since it's a business' own employee.

The employee might have not intertwined his/her work industry within the comment, but when hiring someone, what are the best qualities needed? Kind, hard-working, selfless, helpful, and devoted, right? Unfortunately, a good way to get sales is to make your company look better. You don't want a racist guy, who people know works at your company, to be spreading their beliefs around like wildfire and racially discriminate people.

The employee may have Freedom of Speech, but that does NOT mean they can be protected by it in this situation. Rules are obligational to the Amendments. Like in school, when they told you to be quiet and you wouldn't, what'd you get? A punishment. Rules are obligational across every community that can walk, talk, think, read and write.

So my answer is no. As I stated above, rules are obligational, and whoever set those rules has right to punish whoever breaks those rules. Freedom of Speech can't help you in every situation.

umka2103 [35]

Before the development of computer-assisted design software, many firms handcrafted prototypes, wooden or clay models that served as rough physical representations of a new product.

The activity of creating prototypes of software applications, i.e., incomplete versions of the software programme being developed, is known as software prototyping. It is a software development activity that is similar to prototyping in other fields such as mechanical engineering or manufacturing.

Industrial design prototyping can be done in several ways, including iterative, parallel, competitive, and rapid. During the product development process, these various prototyping methods generate varying proof-of-concept models.

An example of a prototype is the first model of a new robot.
