There was the case many years ago of a woman at a George Strait concert at The Summit. Fed up with the long line for the women's room, she snuck into the men's room to do her business and was arrested.
The way the law was written, a person could not go into the opposite sex bathroom with the intent of causing a commotion. The judge correctly determined she went in solely to pee and dismissed the charges.

As to the firing, from the article I read the man was an "independent contractor" at a real estate brokerage. That tells me he was an agent. To my knowledge, every state treats real estate agents as independent contractors rather than employees.
I own my own real estate brokerage in Florida. The real estate business is build almost entirely on name recognition and reputation. If this had been on of my agents, I would have given him two options: issue an app where he acknowledges the error of his ways, or I terminate his contract. His name is associated with my brokerage. If he did something to damage his own name, I'm not letting him pull my name down as well.

Man B was a jerk but did NOT deserve to be fired. I hope he sues the pants off his former employer so he won't have to work again. No justification to being an a-hole but getting fired for that? No.
Man A, well that is hard. I have 1 daughter, I was never in this situation. I probably would have taken her into the men's bathroom into a stall and waited outside. Unlikely to have gone into a woman's restroom. But he was not being a perv or taking creepy pics so I would let it go.
Really, you become a national spectacle and don't think that gives your employer a right to fire you? If the guy is working on a loading dock, then I might have some sympathy, but he's in a public facing real estate job, that look does not help business prospects.
Stop being a snowflake. What's happened to the men of this country??
Man B wasn't attacking, perving or doing anything illegal or criminal. He was just being a jerk which we all do at one point or other in our daily lives. Does not justify getting fired over.
No one would have known unless Man A decided to film it. How is he a "national spectacle"? Man A slandered his rep. His employer's CEO is just virtue-signaling and pandering to women.

But you do have options.
1. Use business with a family restroom like grocery store or Starbucks.
2. Hotel lobby restrooms are a godsend. Always clean. Never in use. Just walk in like you own the place, walk out when you're done.3. If you must use a truck stop (I'd never stop at one traveling alone with my daughter) you gotta find a lady to go in the girls room with them, or hold down the door for you while you go in.
Dems the rules.

Even when you are an employee, you shouldn't. Some people don't like busybody Aholes working for them.

Lots to unpack here:
Man A takes his daughters into women's restroom
Man B flips his lid on Man A. Of course this is captured on video.
Man B gets fired from his job.
As the father of a girl, it would never have occurred to me to go into the women's restroom with her when she was a young kid even though men's restrooms are gross, especially in gas stations (except Buccees).
Does having a kid give you a free pass into the women's restroom? I can't tell in the video if this is a single stall restroom.
Should common sense prevail? Man A obviously wasn't being a perv.
Man B may have been a jerk but did he need to be fired?

Oh that's when men were real men and women were real women.
Today? Everyone is confused and in many cases women are more masculine than men and vice versa.

I guess, since this was the Summit and many years ago, there is no way for a Texags Rule #1 reference?
If not, assumptions will have to be made that she was at least minimally "hot". Thus, no commotion(s). It was a George Strait concert at least, so we can remove the hog-ring in the nose, fat, unkempt, odorous, green hair, acnefied, unstable, gender-confused, weeble-wobble shaped, feminazi type of "woman" in said men's room.

The Target in my city has had problems with a pervert exposing himself in the family restroom and waiting for families to open the unlocked door. I struggle with sending my two pre-teen daughters or young son to the restroom themselves and require at least pairs. The dad did nothing wrong.

Cellphone cameras in everyone's hand makes it a lot more difficult these days to give someone the ass whipping they deserve. Forty years ago you could punch someone in their big fat mouth and walk away and deny deny if a cop came around. Now you punch someone and a dozen people have it on the net labeling you a bully Karen

Man A didn't slander Man B's rep. Serious Clark? man A trying to wash his kids hands and Man B comes in and stats harassing. Don't make this more than it is and act like Man B.
Man A put Man B on camera and played the victim card and ultimately got him fired.
Man B's "mistake" was not worthy of getting fired. He was a jerk and an a-hole, no doubt.
I hope Man A can sleep at night thinking about how he caused someone to lose his house.
I'm not arguing about the firing. I don't think he should have been fired. But that's not my or your call. It's the employers end of day. I'm debating the slander.

I always took my two girls into stalls in the men's restroom. I literally never gave that a second thought until I saw people on social media acting like that was weird. It never once occurred to me to take them into the women's bathroom.
Now they're both old enough to just go in the women's bathroom by themselves while I wait outside.

Mom and Dad are not together.
Mom not happy about her kids all over social media.
Mom alleges Man A is a deadbeat dad. Dad denies it.
Dad creates a GoFund for himself and the QT employee.

gender neutral bathrooms solve this problem btw
Those are easy to do when you have a one hole bathroom like a Starbucks but if you need to provide a restroom large enough to accommodate multiple people at a time like a restaurant, convenience or grocery store you can't do that.
