This was posted under the punch clock at work. I assume it's some kind of occult symbol but that's just a guess. Anyone know what it is or what it means?

If you were actually "escalated to HR" for this and terminated, wouldn't you have a pretty strong wrongful termination case?
I don't think so. If your boss tells you to cut it out and you don't cut it out, that's firing for cause. You might think it's a first amendment thing, but that only protects you from the government telling you to cut it out
hanging up one paper sheet somewhere is not considered informing your personnell in a legal way, they could always argue to have never seen this paper
They could probably send out a mass email, and make an announcement in meetings that “unauthorized symbol drawings” are not allowed. Then they would be covered.
I mean if it was on a bulletin board in the corner of the break room you'd have a point, but this is right next to the punch clock with a big red ATTENTION written on it. Even if you assume there was no mass email or meeting about it, I'd say this qualifies as informing your employees
In most first world countries? Sure (even though it isn't what it used to be, but it would still be a nicer severance than expected if you're ready to spend a lot of money in legal fee or have an union providing you a lawyer).
But I guess that in the US not thanking your boss for letting you work is a valid reason to get fired
