In that case, it's likely he'll be looking for new employment after siding against the business. People in that type of job need a new one anyways...

However, when arbitration happens between businesses and individuals it pretty much sucks. Since business is paying the bills if Mr. Arbitrator wants to make any money we know which way he is going to side. That bastard.
