Pitcher v. United Oil & Gas Syndicate, Inc., 174 La. 66, 139 So. 760, 761 (1932) (emphasis added). The theory of mutuality on which this defense of the rule purports to be founded has been firmly rejected by courts and legal scholars alike, and few would defend it today. See Weiner, supra, 457 N.Y.S.2d at 196, 443 N.E.2d at 444; Berube, supra, 771 P.2d at 1045, 1A CORBIN ON CONTRACTS, § 6.1, at 197 (1993); Blades, Employment At Will v. Individual Freedom: On Limiting the Abusive Exercise of Employer Power, 67 COLUM. L. REV. 1404, 1419-21 (1967) (hereinafter Blades).
