Walgreens and CVS are notorious for marking all employees as "not meeting expectations" on their annual reviews to have documentation when they fire you for unrelated reasons.
They lie about why they hire you too. I work in a court, and many secretaries are hired over more qualified applicants. If the decision is questioned, we're told, " She had the right attitude." Translation: she's in my happy hour clique.
They love them "pretty young thangs". Married, male managers like to flirt with pretty, married secretaries and have unexplained time periods to explain to their wives and husbands.
I work for tech company, I was set up to fail. I got promoted within 3 weeks, my new manager I can see he didn't want a new immigrant to get this new promotion. He then set up a ploy and give me one on one meetings with fear tactics, making me doubt myself and with defamation of heresay and gavee me 3 write-ups very quickly and then warned me about sending me to HR for a PIT then when I talked to the DEI and HR they officially gave me a PIT. I signed, acknowledged it, and email out a rebuttal. Meanwhile, my attorney reached out to them with the intent to sue.
Great knowledge of the law your knowledge has helped me in my cases of discrimination if i win my case by myself im headed to school to be a employment lawyer
I was wrongfully terminated from Homeland Security in Utah. They hated me for being from Colorado, Married to a foreign National who is a Lawful US Resident. That they called a threat to national security. What they did is drag out the case as long as they could. Even used the government to create a placebo second job in another state for me to drag out the case for over a year. Always having excuses to place me and my family at great risk. With the placebo after homeland security employer creating a hostile work place threatening to terminate me for so many court cases at the NASSCO ship yards. Still to this day I have not had gainful employment because of the wrongful termination lies homeland security keeps using to harm my life and now it's even in politics.
It’s an employers first move to ask for a summary dismissal. Please do a video on how to combat that and actually get a court to hear you, rather than outright dismissal. Thank you.
Summary judgement... You want to show that your employer has omitted, misrepresented, or misunderstood the evidence. Plantiffs should poke as many holes in employer's case as possible, in the hope of raising enough questions about your employer's interpretation of the facts that your judge determines a hearing is needed to address them. This is a giant hurdle, and if you clear it you're in better shape than most. Good luck to all who are at this stage!
WOW... This "guy" is...what's the word?....MARVELOUS, not only for his clear instructional language and examples but he adds a flair of emphasis and warnings so that he doesn't cross the line into encouraging fraudulent claims by a dishonest employee. Say...Mr. Fantastic Labor Lawyer, earnestly said, do you have videos helping EMPLOYERS ferret out fraudulent employee claims and how to defeat or defend against them? Job, decidedly... OK, tremendously well done on your videos!
In Europe, pretextual terminations are impossible to prove because they have a nicely crafted clause that says that the employer can cease the request of your services without being liable and this little clause applies in IT for ALL contract types, permanent or freelance.
I was terminated due to the employer not renewing their licenses but the IDPHR office confirmed the license was renewed and mailed out the day before. An I was terminated the same week I filed a claim with the dept of labor
all excellent dialog save for "the salesman knows defective tires" (emotive aplenty). How does a salesman know if tires defective? All the examples for why people are fired have their negative/180° opposite for why "special employees" are retained. If workers labor as a crew, then the total production divided by hours can only be increased by prodding the more productive individuals in crew. Greatfully retired before/start of cell phones; employer call at night for tech advice unneeded to next day. Land-line phone had "custom ring" service where it ring 2 different tones; call all night boss/salesman.
What if I was fired for poor performance, not a team player. But I have copies of my performance reviews being all satisfactory. And logs of my production? I've never even been written up. It just didn't make sense to me. I know it had to be another reason I got fired.
You keep making reference in this video to the employee being "fired" But what about if the employer calls it a "lay off" My understanding is that regardless if it's a "firing", "layoff" or even if the employee quits, the employer can still be sued for wrongful termination. But specifically regarding this video, does the content still apply to employees being "laid off"?
Excellent question. Under the law, a "layoff" is treated exactly the same as a "firing" or "termination." It's a little more difficult to file a wrongful termination case when the employee quits, however. That would need to be considered a constructive termination, which is much more difficult to prove under CA law. Not impossible, but it won't work in most cases.
I was fired for stealing something I had no knowledge about. They set me up. They said a guest pinged their device to find out where it was and it supposedly pinged at my house. I asked to the that because they said that the guest took a screen shot of it and when I asked to see that then they said no . They said it was an investigation but then they never did what I told them to do which was to tell the guest to ping the device again in real time while law enforcement come to my house and search. I’m proving to them I don’t have anything and they still fired me. Another thing that was very suspicious was I asked them , isn’t it weird that the “guest” pinged their supposed device to my address but the “guest” didn’t call the authorities themselves if they knew where the “device” was at? I know wholeheartedly this was a set up. Plus , this was the week of august 5 where my boss came back from vacation from Europe. I worked that Monday and Tuesday and Wednesday. I had Thursday and Friday off. My boss called me of Friday and asked me if I worked on said house that past Monday and of course I said yes. But he called me on Friday . I told aunt the o it one at that house. There were three housekeepers and a maintenance guy. I was scheduled to work the next day Saturday and so I go in and I was stopped by one of the supervisors and said that they were going to send me home and I asked why ? That was very odd to me a as nd she said to call H.R. and so when I got home I called a few times because they didn’t answer at first so I waited a bit and they called me a few hours later. They said that a guest “lost” their tablet and when they said that they pinged it it rang up at my house. I said that’s impossible because I don’t have anything. They never wanted to prove anything while I’m calling different attorneys and law enforcement myself to see what I can do to get some justice on this. I still listen to my job. I told H.R. to get in contact with the past guest and ping it again while law enforcement would be at my house but H.R. said they didn’t want to do that. Another thing is that if the guest supposedly pinged their supposed device to my house, wouldn’t you think that they would’ve or even should’ve called the police themselves to file a report? That in itself was a red flag. And then I asked them to see the supposed screen shot of the pinged device and they refused. Like I said , THAT WAS A SET UP. Oh and did I mention that the same day that the boss came back literally 5 housekeeping ladies quit on the same day. Obviously, lots of things are severely affected the jobs on particular departments at this vacation resort. Then a few housemen quit within a few days. Also, a family went for vacation and their child was playing at the top bunk of the kids rooms and the top bunk did not have a rail. The child fell and had a major gash on his forehead. Which was an obvious law suit because of neglect of keeping the themed houses safe. So many things wrong at this place in such a short period of time. I just don’t know or understand why I got fired for something I didn’t do nor they couldn’t prove and I’m trying to prove my innocence. That wasn’t good enough. It’s so sad what this world has come to especially for the ones that are trying to make an honest living. Those are the ones who don’t deserve that kind of injustice.
I have a DOL case involving pretext, covert invasion of privacy and wrongful termination. I wish i had found your firm earlier and contacted your intake on Thursday. I need advice by Monday morning. Please help!!! How do I discuss settlement!!!!!
Hi so useful all these series video. I haded these job for around a month, then someone of my coworkers kik my on my knee. I made (and call) a report in the police, and the owners where to happy about it. So the next day I arrive at work they remove me from schedule. It has been 2 weeks without any hour at schedule or work. My question is how can I prove if I'm been fired? How long those it has to be so I can legally know I'm been fired. I'm in the state of nevada
I have never fired someone over no reason HR was tired of the hub firing people so we did everything to keep them myself I did everything to keep them even left manager comment to make sure he or she looked good so they won’t be fired but if they keep missing days or kept being late I can’t help you
The EEOC defends the employer. One employer fired a waitress and said she's too old to be a waitress. She filed a Govt agency complaint. The employer responded to the complaint and wrote that he fired her because she was too old to be a waitress. The manager actually really did put that in writing. The govt agency ignored the employer response. Nothing was done to help her.
She tried. She hired many attorneys over the years, but the attorneys just try and talk her into accepting a low measly $1,500 pre settlement. She was fired from a $100,000 a year job, so she refuses to accept a $1,500 settlement. And a major airline asked her the age during the job interview. She tape recorded it -The EEOC lied to her and told her if she gives him the tape recording for evidence then he'll give her a probable cause finding. So she emailed the recording to him, but he defended the airline. The attorney she hired got mad at her and stopped returning her phone calls because she would not accept a $1,700 settlement. That job was a $100,000 airline job, so once again she refused to accept a $1,700 settlement for a $100k a year job plus lost social security and pension funds. And this one attorney she hired negotiated a $17,500 pre-settlement in lieu of a lawsuit against a major company after she recorded the hiring manager making derogatory comments on the phone about her age during the interview process. He refused to give her an in person interview he said because of her age. But the attorney she hired said, "OOPS, THE STATUTE OF LIMITATIONS PASSED SO I CAN'T GET THE $17,500". She has all the emails and recorded phone calls for evidence of the $17,500 settlement, but when she tried to get the $17,500 from the employers attorney, their attorney said, "WHAT SETTLEMENT?" She also hired several attorneys to try and get the money and they wrote letters and made phone calls to the company attorney but they were unsuccessful. I feel the case should be reopened and the statute tolled(stopped) because the employer's attorney legally MUST negotiate with employees with or without an attorney. Was told she needs to file a "Motion to enforce settlement agreement" in court. But that had a six year statute and it's past six years. It's well known in my state that the attorneys work in collusion with the employer while secretly working against the employee(victim), and also one employer was in the news years ago after somebody had a wiretap on them and caught the employer giving a cash bribe to the NERC investigator, and the bribe was in the news. The case should be reopened based on Administrator Fraud because the investigator didn't properly take all the evidence into consideration. One guy named Seth use to help people with the OSHA whistleblower cases, and he was suppose to help her with her OSHA case after she received a merit case from the investigator, but Seth mysteriously died.
Can you sue an employer if they unjustly rated you as Needs Improvement and gave you a performance improvement plan and caused you to lose out on bonuses and your normal salary increase?
so when you win in court and it turns out that the reason you were fired was based on discrimination and they lied and used a pretext does the state prosecutor then charge everyone involved with lying to the court with perjury? probably not. its almost as if the court system wants people to lie in court.
You can request your notice of rights to sue letter at any time. EEOC isn't the most helpful, it's just a step you have to take before you can officially sue your former employer. I feel like they only take the cases that are cut and dry with direct evidence that doesn't require a ton of work. I would request your letter if they haven't already mailed it to you and start looking for an employment lawyer.
@@nissan_skyline ...truly said..the EEOC did not find any evidence of discrimination in my charge and issued me a Right to Sue...however I was not able to secure an attorney to go ahead as they were not keen to take up my case. As of now, I have moved on and let Karma do the the rest :) ;) Thanks for your comment :D
@@purple6932 Same here.. EEOC didn’t find anything during their “investigation”, which I doubt they thoroughly conducted. Frustrating cause I literally had direct evidence proving pre-text via letters and text message. I also couldn’t find an attorney in time so ended up filing pro se initially to give me more time to search for one and I must say, I’m pretty damn proud of the lawsuit I put together lol. I stayed up for like, 3-5 days straight researching case files and watching these videos to prepare my case. Even had an attorney question if I had professional help lol. Maybe if the statutes of limitations hasn’t run on your case, you can try re-visiting to see if it’s worth something 🤷🏻♀️
@@nissan_skyline ... I felt that I was the only one who feels that the investigation into my charge was done properly, considering its the EEOC job profile. Im really happy that you could take up the Charge with an Attorney and seems like you could have been an Attorney yourself, given the amount of Research and study you've done :) Since Im from India and working at Sea (Im a Marine Electrical Technical Officer), I dont think I can pursue my Charge any further...Rest Assured...I know that Karma will eventually catch up with them and those responsible get what they deserve :D
Can an Employer/Company Refused to Provide All documents pretaining to show there Finding of how they came up with Insubordination and Unprofessional in order for an Employee to have a Fair Chance to Respond in an Appeal. As well shouldn't the Employee know who's the Investigator who was supposed to have did the Investigation. And isn't All Documents Pretaining Investigation Considered as Public Records
My employer said I quit that I was never terminated. I told them I spoke to HR and told them I did not quit and they said I still wasn't allowed to return to work.
Thanks for sharing your content.👍🏾 Have you ever created a content on UNITED STATES. (2009). The Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act of 2008 (GINA). [Washington, D.C.], U.S. Dept. of Labor, Employee Benefits Security Administration. I know you know that it prohibits genetic information discrimination in employment, took effect on November 21, 2009?
No. Genetic discrimination is incredibly rare. I've never had a case involving that law, and, as a matter of fact, I don't think any of my close colleagues have had a genetic discrimination case. I'm sure it happens, but not very often.
@@braniganrobertsonlaw thanks for clarifying that you have not created a content for the Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act. Although lawsuits about genetic information discrimination cases appeared to be rare because the reported cases are not as high as other cases are; for instance, race discrimination, sexual harassment, or employment retaliation, or wrongful termination. But I have found other RU-vidrs and complainants who have file their claims and won their cases. I think I will create my own content on GINA which is as you know a important U.S. civil rights law that protects individuals from discrimination based on their genetic information. I’m sure you know it was first introduced into the U.S. I like the way you explain the law. So if you ever decide to create another one of your contents on GINA, think of why it prevents health insurance companies and employers from requesting that folks who could be someone you know to take genetic tests, or prohibits health insurers from using their genetic information to refuse insurance or charge higher prices, and also prohibits employers from hiring, firing and making other employment decisions based on a genetic information of someone you may know. But you don’t have too, I just like how you explain things.
Businesses are profit based. Therefore it's illogical to fire achievers and hire underachievers. If the NBA is 80% black as the result of merit, so be it, I'm happy for them. Please don't diversify the NBA. I like basketball. We all know what would happen if whites dominated again. Lower ratings. Ratings increased once they allowed everyone to participate. It helped lift many black men out of poverty. Unfortunately many still vote Democrat, even though they are living examples of why meritocracy is vital for positive societal growth. It's almost as if Democrats are anti-logic. You know you can't provide any refutation which I couldn't rebut. I'm all eyes if you can tell me why meritocracy is wrong using facts, logic and reason.
From the beginning to the end of employment, create a file folder and keep copies of everything, including a written log of all incidents involving you, time dates etc.. You never know when this evidence will be needed, regarding an AT WILL job. Document everything regardless of how minor.
Yes, and keep track of all your wins (and their respective monetary equivalent) so they’ll also see how much work they’d have to do to find someone else who brings that much value to the company
Of course the employers will never say the truth in most cases. They don't even present the new hires the truth in the orientation about the company what makes me think they will tell the truth when they fired an employee lol. Learned this many years ago. Your videos is awesome! I'm learning lots from you.
I am a retired union officer (25 years) and am now a Paralegal working on a Master's (Labor & Employment Law concentration) at ASU O'Connor Law School. I am familiar with the concept of pretext, but have often run into a brick wall in getting my constituents who have been discriminated against to challenge those pretextual issues. The one time someone did make a challenge, it resulted in a favorable $1.25 million jury verdict. The evidence is out there. You just have to dig for it.
Hey man so I was terminated for being falsely accused of theft there is a video that’s shows the whole incident and I even have a printed transactions that proves that I did pay for the item. I was apart of a union but was still terminated. Which at this point it’s in the 3rd step of the grievance. I’ve reached out too multiple law firms which none of them have taken the case. Is this even grounds for any type of lawsuit ?? I’ve left a lot of other details out. What is your opinion on it??
These videos are great... Watched 5 now and cannot stop. Businesses have a thousand tricks they pull to fire employees because most average employees don't count or matter. One time a supervisor told me I was fired and I left the job ONLY to find out later from a co-worker who called me that ONLY the manager could fire me and the supervisor lied... Supervisor had a grudge against me because I was well liked by all my coworkers and he was jealous. After telling me I was fired he probably lied to the manager and said "Idk that guy never showed back up at work"...
The only way to get the truth OUT THERE is to get the truth out there. Tell your story. You may think you lose leverage this way, but don't kid yourself, you have no leverage. That's why they felt comfortable firing you. Tell your story. They're too arrogant to believe you will tell on them. Someone may eventually listen (even the EEOC has to take a few cases). It's not slander if it's true. It's not libel if it's true.
I was laid off and my former employer said it was because I was not understanding the job quick enough. I wrote a bad review on google about a year later after I found a different job because I wanted to let people know that they did me dirty. Shortly after that, I got a letter from EDD saying that they fired me because of misconduct. It is clearly not coincidental that they reported me right after I submitted that comment. I signed no paperwork stating I was being fired nor did they state it verbally the same day they laid me off. This is totally a revenge scheme because of my factual comment on google.
I was getting to close to age 62. I was aware that the firm I worked for was firing employees who were close to 62. I had a quota to meet. The more difficult work that took time was assigned to me while another worker who was 20 years younger than I was assigned the easier work. I am certain they were trying to create a paper trail to fire me. I retired.
I have a friend who worked at a hospital and she told me that she and others her age over 50 were being targeted to either take a early retirement or fired for what ever reasons. So sorry that you had to go through that.
Some people could say that it is normal since you should have more experience to handle harder problems. It's hard to prove discrimination based on that alone. Often, it's too late to prevent it from happening to us. However, I experienced a similar situation in the past and I acknowledge your statement. In my case some coworkers were assigned duplicate tasks, short tasks or easy tasks, while I was getting trash or very hard tasks that could take days or weeks. Just to put some context, the project was on its fifth year and I had tasks that were created 3 years ago and probably everyone was making sure they did not have to solve it because it was so difficult or long leaving it stagnant or assigning it to people they didn't like so they have a harder time at work. We had group meetings each morning and often we heard people saying they completed dozens of tasks the previous day (sometimes being honest saying they were duplicates) while a few others like me just say we didn't finish our current task and will continue. The team lead was the one controlling tasks distribution and management was only looking at the numbers of tasks completed compared to there high quota and not the content, complexity or results of those tasks or other metrics. It was a toxic workplace with a lot of staff turnover. I left before the end of the project, but when the project was over, on the 10 people at position and still working on it in our team, 3 of them got to stay while the others were "let go". On those 3: the team lead controlling the task, its puppet monkey coworker ass kisser that got the easy tasks and a new person I didn't know. Even the cookie lady was out (the cookie strategy is a political behavior to attract favor by giving compensatory gifts). Basically, the competition on the work floor lead to sabotage and discrimination in order to protect their own jobs instead of doing good. It takes a lot of experience and learning in life to be able to properly manage those kinds of discrimination and situations.
Will documenting examples of being given constant hard tasks in comparison to multiple easy tasks given to others can create a substantial circumstantial evidence?
@@russianerica8153 It can't hurt. The more documentation the better. Document everything! You never know which thing is "the thing" that can win the case. For me it was two E-mails I blind carbon copied myself that allowed me to challenge a "fired with cause" to the unemployment office successfully but I didn't know those would be the key Emails I needed at the time. That last 6 weeks I was getting setup for customer complaints because I was following company policy and security standards. They lied when we had a billing dispute with a cell vendor for air time. Their portal to track it was down and the director demanded the estimate NOW. I had to go and estimate it by other means and I wrote the Email saying "this is only an rough estimate, once the vendor's portal is back up we will know exactly what it is. Please DO NOT bill the customer based off of this estimate". The estimate was 40% too low and they DID bill the customer based on it.
I was once fired a week after my Job Coach closed by case because her task was to “make sure I was employed” when I thought it was to help keep me employed. When I first started that job there was literally no management and we were fine. When we got management this one female one was immediately hostile towards me in a passive aggressive sort of way. She was smug when leading me into the back when they fired me claiming the higher ups told them to do it which was a lie. They also tried to get me to sign something which I refused without even reading it.
I was harassed by my boss before. When I filed a complaint, he lied to the HR and HR lied to me as well. I decided to leave with conditions (meaning I was able to get a great severance package rather), they compensated me monetarily and they gave me 6 months worth of severance package and pretty good retirement. They also gave me all of my vacation days which was like 4 weeks as a pay. I was surprised to see a good sum of money into my account when I left the company. That was a good surprise. But unfortunately I was quite traumatized and embarrassed as they said all the lies about me that I wasn’t fitting in, a bad worker etc., which is a totally lie all of them actually and I could have taken them to court. Because I had written raving reviews of my performance from people I worked for and with. They also offered me other options too to stay but I didn’t take it. I just took whole bunch of money and left as I couldn’t see myself working for them. The entire ordeal was traumatizing and I decided to travel the world after for a year+. Anyways the moral of the story is what goes around comes around. They literally made my life living hell for several months. They would send a nasty email on every two weeks Friday after official hours around 5:30 pm or passed 6 pm only for me to find out Friday evening when I checked my email to better serve clients. They ruined several weekends and many holidays. I actually did talk to a lawyer. What they did was absolutely illegal. My lawyers I talked to said we have a case but just didn’t want to pursue it. Just too painful for me, and just wanted to move on. What’s happening to them now? Yeah I found out recently all of their positions got eliminated, around 15 people globally in that huge corporation, only 2 people were offered alternative roles, those two were the ones who were nice to me. Everyone else got eliminated, including the nasty manager who made my life living hell and his manager who bullied me. He was a pure evil. Such nasty individuals. Now I found a great job, 30% pay increase and I can work from home even whenever I wanted. But those people who abused me while I was there? Writing some pathetic sob story on social media that their positions got eliminated. Begging for a job basically. I never understood why they write their sorry a** sob story on social media for the public to see how pathetic they were so their roles were eliminated. They were useless anyways. I felt liberated when I found out about what happened to them. The revenge is best served cold. I’m so glad they decided to keep those two guys who tried their best to help me and got rid of those mediocre guys and the evil management.
Seems like employers can get away with a lot with "at will" employment and even more so now that arbitration agreements as a condition of employment are a thing.
I did that twice. With Kroger and a local animal shelter organization. Never again. I didn't know what those were. You're giving up your rights to settle legit complaints with a lawyer of your choosing. If you sign, a company-appointed lawyer will be assigned to your case, tell you you're full of shit and gaslight you. They will do anything to protect the company, because they're being paid by that company to protect them, not you.
It’s creepy in Minnesota , they where doing that to people and then wouldn’t even let you say their name and would say, they are gone we aren’t allowed to say, even about teachers and hairstylists..they just disappeared.
Well l was hired as a mature worker, for 6 weeks so they could put a person in a seat so co workers could go on leave and to lunch. They terminated me with no cause, hired younger workers, l did the job well so they could go on leave and lunches but the company manipulated how my computer and work tools were delayed so the lawyers shamefully lie in mediation about my performance. It has to be the most disgusting act an employer has done ever done to me. But hey l learnt this hard way. l just couldn’t believe a non for profit company could be so ruthless. This is the kind of thing you only see in movies, but you never think it will happen to you. They must have been desperate as there is a major skill shortage. I am filled with total disgust for this company lm 62 never done anything to Anyone. I feel degraded.

At bog box stores, I have seen time and time again, that when they want to force you to quit, they 1) decrease your hours to make the cost of getting to work more than what you make in pay. 2) make those hours at odd times, and make it a split schedule. 3) Have you do jobs in the garden center in winter time or in summer when there is extreme heat. The employee eventually gives in and quits, and the employer doesn't have to pay a dime of unemployment. How is this kind of harassment legal ?
My friend was fired over age. The company quickly settled with her. They hired 2 20 year old's for the pay they were paying her. Her attorney proved it and she was paid a settlement. Just sucks that Employers get away with this behavior. My grandmother was one of the first Welders in her company. She finally quit because of all the knuckle dragging Men who made her life miserable. This was in the 70's. The men use to tell her she was taking the job a man could take to support their family. So many Woman before us have fought and scratched their way into the workforce. We all need to pay attention at our jobs and socially to make sure we don't support this type of behavior towards Woman.
@@skg5067 Not true my friend,its the masses don't know civil laws in the workplace...it's not a arizona thing...if you didn't file a arbitration agreement and can literally prove wrong termination,harressment,especially retaliation its not a debate..it's a automatic lawsuit if it can be proven..The problem is the masses doesn't know civil rights laws in the workplace regardless if it's a let go at will state..

All were fmla days and one was a employee given day we get every yr. Im a caregiver to my dad who's in hospice. Ton of laws broken & I saved everything even hr statn mgr was in violation of company policy 😢😢
HR doesn't give a crap about you. They will snitch about you to your boss. They are evil people with no compassion. Complaining to HR is what got you fired. At least you have federal law regarding FMLA and anti-discrimination to support you.
All the time they need to cut employees due to low sales and bad administration! All of them got this practice even if it takes sabotage to get a tough employee out.
I was fired from my job today. I was fired a week after they gave me my payday leave and always sent me home early. I was laid off without even getting enough salary to pay my rent. I went to work in the morning. The manager called me to her office and said I was fired. When I asked why, she said I got the wrong order despite no complaints from customers or other staff. In the morning, another new staff member started working in, the wrong power is in the hands of the wrong people. Why everything is not fair?
Life is not fair. People can't seem to be honest. If your manager was honest and told you the real reason she fired you, you could have sued your former employer for discrimination. Don't feel bad. It's happened to a lot of people in America.
I am 33 wk pregnant been with company 5yrs . I went to my supervisor for an issue my hr already knew about a month prior to taking said employee of layoff to put her on the same shift ,same department , and had me training her . She wasn't following dress policy it was distractions andi was tired of hearing about it. As a quality tech we were getting called to the lines for bulshit reasons example of distraction. Being 32 wks pregnant with 4th child it was getting annoying a day later I was fired
I was forced to resign at my job over two years ago. I was made to choose between force resignation or termination. So I picked force termination because I thought that sound and look better on my employment record. Employer claims that I was cheating with hours, where I’ve seen many of my coworkers in the break room earlier or pass the break time and in between. And yet because of this one supervisor, I was selected to be the only one investigated. I live in Hawaii, what’s the statue of limitations here? It’s so hard to determine which category I fall under.

Mine is so easy. I have all of the Facebook Messages. She contacted me. She asked me questions. I blocked her. They said they fired me because she told me to stop contacting her. It is a HUGE lie and I can prove she never once said stop contacting me. She kept writing me. The questions they asked me were all about my religion. My case is so clear:
I got fired in a week for no reason they just told me I wasn’t learning. How can they determine this reason in just a week? Reason 1- not engage. I have over 30 pages of notes and learn all their systems in 3 days. Reason 2- take to many bathroom brakes? Probably go to the restroom 3 times as I work a 11 hour shift daily and have no lunch time I have to eat working. I never got fired I was working for 15 years in a company and resigned to go to this new company and a new opportunity and I got fired in a week! Makes no sense.
It does matter as it adds one more job to your resume/CV and damages your chances of getting a comparable job in addition to burnt bridges with that company. It thrusts your future into uncertainty. Not to mention having to explain it in interviews even when it was not your fault.
I was asked to resign for applying for a transfer. coincidently, I was asked to resign shortly after having a newborn. I just took the measly severance they were offing and left to work another job.
Cummins Allison in Mount Prospect IL 60056 said I was fired for insubordination. I wouldn't falsify preventative maintenance tickets to rip off their own customers, So in essence is that insubordination ?
Great explanation of pretextual arguments and how to handle them! It's very important to be able to call it out. My employer tried so many of these, and ultimately failed, but if I'd let them trigger me with pretext, I'd have lost.
What if they say u failed a reasonable suspicion drug test that the lab swears you didn't fail? Does that not matter bcs it isn't one of the legal examples or whatever?
You know what’s funny I had an email from my employer which details why I was terminated word for word this email matches the NJ Cepa still can’t find a suite in NJ to represent me but my company didn’t have any trouble finding one
Im facing this right now especially after 10 years. I had a temporary seasonal position at a big chain store, never stole, never reprimanded, always worked, on time and after the holidays they just left me off the schedule. I applied to a different location, same position to find out the previous location said I resigned and blacklisted me. How can I quit when this company never scheduled me anymore hours after the holidays.
I was fired for refusing to do unsafe work and reporting this to ther HR, they said, it was he say, she say, but lo and behold I got them on camera doing the unsafe job that they told me I had to do. So they fired me in retaliation because I called them out for it.
I just got fired. And I was so confused. They said it was performance but I have pics of my performance (I was proud of my work) time stamped and everything. The reasons were vague and if you mess up a boss KNOWS where, what date what time. Like the have GPS locations these were vauge. Then, they said I wasn't happy enough. But there I worked a job where I was stuck in the back no one talks to you which makes me really happy. Because I am new to Germany and Germany just stand still and stare, then actually get REALLY mad when you can't read their telepathic thoughts. (Didn't break any culture rules. Just was on break, and went to get monster energy drinks at the store, because no one was talking and just standing still and staring. I always politely excuse myself and then ask if they need and thing and it's like a hive mind answer "No" Then they rage, like I have to be there to do something wrong.) my ex boss told me I wasn't happy enough. I am so VERY confused. Because customers loved me, my work infact did improve I took evidence.
It was in 1974 when I was Chief Shop Steward in a union that I first learned about this concept. When I shared this new found knowledge with our Business Agent, he rolled his eyes and said, "You could never prove anything like that".
I live in Va. I work for a nonprofit. They are trying to get me to quit. I blew the whistle on sexual harassment from a director and abuse on an employee with disabilities from a staff who was friends with the higher ups. I’ve been written up 2 for bs reasons and just got a low eval with input from the Director that I turned in for sexual harassment. HR and the management know what they’re doing. It’s insane. lawyer said I have to wait to be terminated. They definitely have been down this road before they know what they’re doing. It is taking a toll on my physical health and my mental well-being.
I am at the Employee Rebuttal Stage of my EEOC Complaint and live in Texas. The attorney that drafted the Response is only licensed in California, as it is corporate location. I am a Certified Paralegal and worked in litigation for years. I have prepared many a trial and mediation notebook. I am embarrassed for the legal profession at the attorney's response. I have the actual audio that does not remotely align with their malicious, inflammatory, blatantly deceitful Response. It is a very large veterinary corporation and i am able to prove pretext way beyond a preponderance and will keep you updated. Your videos have been so very helpful!! Thank you!!
I've just received my Right To Sue letter in Federal Court. Once I heard their rebuttal (through CRD) I couldn't believe they actually thought what they did to me was legal! I'll be looking for a wrongful termination attorney here in California soon. Would you recommend yours? Thank you
