This Man With Down Syndrome Worked For A Fast Food Chain For 2 Decades And Then His Sister Says They Fired Him Because He Couldn’t Complete The Same Tasks As A “Normal Person”

Just because Dennis has an extra chromosome doesn’t mean that he should be discriminated against. And how does someone that has been working at the same place for 20 years all of a sudden get given a task that makes them unqualified? What could that task have possibly been?

People have commented their support and their grievances with the company’s actions and are fully in support of whatever Dennis and his family decide to do. Many have even asked for an address so they can send retirement gifts and cards to Dennis.

Cona shared a couple of updates along with an address in case you would like to write a card for Dennis.

“Update, They offered Dennis his job back starting next week,” Cona wrote. “My heart is overwhelmed by the support that you all have given my brother and myself! Thank you all so much.”

“Update 2: I have had several requests to send Dennis cards and letters (shared address). Update 3: Dennis will not be returning to Wendy’s. He will be having his BIG RETIREMENT party that he has been wanting. Wendy’s has offered to help with expenses and anything else they can for his special day. I feel in my heart, at this point, I should do what is best for my brother.”

Cona’s local community really came together to show their support for Dennis too. After the Mount Holly Police Department learned about what happened to Dennis, they made him an honorary member of the force.

Additionally, students from the Catawba Heights Elementary School and Mount Holly Middle School created cards to wish Dennis the best of luck in his retirement.

The overwhelming support for Dennis is amazing, and hopefully, he can enjoy his retirement with his family and friends.

If you would like to send Dennis a letter, here is the address that Cona shared:

Dennis Peek
PO Box 183
Mount Holly, NC 28120
