I've just heard of you this week while looking up some EEOC stuff. I am still employed but constructively terminated. I am retaliated against and all of my direct reports moved to someone new with no qualifications who can't even do the job but needs checks. This includes a brand new organization chart with a recent months date. When my employer did that, I actually applied and interviewed for that job with an extensive cover letter explaining why I should have that job which was already my job. I was turned down for someone who has no clue what to do and has articulated that they don't really have a job which is true. It's a fake job. The whole retaliation started because my CEO imposed a bunch of new people on me for an offensive increase without permitting a discussion and none of them even do what my team did so I'd have to learn it well enough to supervise them. The point is that this is all in an email exchange which demonstrates that she was that confident in my abilities until I filed something on her ass. She only promotes and increases one demographic and damn everybody else. Everybody else is her prostitutes. The point is that everything is in writing including being disinvited from all management meetings, and entirely new organization chart. And things no one would believe if I didn't have evidence. I have 100 pieces of infuriating evidence because they can't track what themselves do. I guess the threat of an investigation is going to compel them to the settlement meeting, but I don't expect us to get anywhere even though they continue to attempt to humiliate me and make me quit. They are paying the people she hired to replace me exponentially more money and they're not even qualified to get into the systems our work is in. My new supervisor has asked me to help her learn it's in order to be able to supervise me. Nope. I Guess we're in Hardball now. When you know you're in a jam, you write everything like you know other people are going to be looking at it while the bullies remain oblivious. Winning is in what you collect and i got everything. Look for me. Cali.
My son (Joe) is on the Spectrum, w/ social anxiety, and major depressive disorder. He is high functioning, with multiple masters degree, but has not been able to hold a job. We networked with a friend who also has a child on the spectrum. Connected with a large corporation who provides therapy for kids on the spectrum. Thought process was they would certainly be sensitive to the needs of an employee on the Spectrum as they are in the business of providing therapy to kids on the spectrum. Joe was assured accommodations would be provided by the corporation. Third day on the job he was subjected to the most violent client in the facility. Without the required RGB (registered Behavior Therapist) he was placed in charge of administering the program for the violent client. This client regularly went into behavior falling to floor kicking and screaming, and attacking other clients was common. His 2nd session with this client, he requested accommodation to have this client removed from his schedule by a manager. His direct manager had left him in charge of this client while she went on vacation. His next week and a half was fine without the violent client on his schedule. When manager returned, they told Joe they were placing the violent client back on his schedule. Joe was to shadow the manager for 2 weeks with client then determine if he could take on responsibility. Third day into this program, Manager left early, leaving the violent client with Joe alone. The client attempted to attack another client. Joe used the training techniques taught by the manager to separate the client. The client was on floor in behavior, got up fell down after running into Joe's outstretched arms. He cried, but finally got up and left with Joe to the front. The stress of this situation was too much for Joe to continue and he told front desk it was his last day. Corporation called him later and told him he was terminated. A couple of weeks later he received an email from Regulatory as the corporation decided to file a violation with the Regulatory to remove his RBT certification. They stated they called CPS and the police. After an year battle, the regulatory ruled in Joe's favor and stated the corporation may have been retaliatory. There was no CPS or Police Report ever found, so they lied to the regulatory. No longer able to work, because of the stress caused by this ordeal. EEOC filed charge for disability discrimination and retaliation. Now have mediation scheduled, and looking for a lawyer to assist in TX.
Absolutely. Bullied and harassed. Set up, sabotaged and interfered with in my duties. The management at my job knowingly created a hostile work environment for me and even after they slandered me and we're officially notified with my written complaint.. continued the abusive behavior til I was forced to quit. It's when I followed up my complaint with text messages written by the offenders as proof of their involvement, that's when I was officially terminated 2 days later without cause. I have text messages, contemporaneous notes, emails and a fact witness. I'm just not in a "protected class".
I had to file my wrongful termination complaint initially as a pro se litigant because I was having a hard time finding a lawyer and was running up against the statutes of limitations for filing a lawsuit. Your videos have helped me so much with drafting my complaint and understanding employment discrimination laws in general. When I finally found a lawyer to take over my case, she told me my complaint was the most well written complaint by a non-lawyer that she has ever come across throughout her career. I was so proud of myself and just want to say thank you lol. She didn't even think my complaint was worth amending, and now we're just about to enter into the settlement negotiation stages with my former employer.
Hello, How would you name your draft? I would like to start one ASAP. I feel like I’m walking in your shoes about hitting a wall. I’ve been treated so badly by my employer and on now I’m on FMLA for mental anguish.
@@espianmashias9565 Hi there, where are you at in the process right now? Were you fired and you now want to initiate a lawsuit against your former employer for wrongful termination? Also, have you filed a charge with the EEOC yet? Filing a charge is always the first step. You won't be able to bring on a lawsuit without a notice of rights to sue letter, which is issued by the EEOC after they've had an opportunity to investigate your case. If they find that discrimination has taken place, they may file a lawsuit on your behalf but even if they dismiss your charge, you'll still receive a notice of rights to sue letter, which is essentially your golden ticket to being able to sue your former employer. I'm more than happy to share some advice based on my personal experience so far, but just want to get a feel for your current situation right now.
@Nissan Skyline Thank you so much for responding to my comment. At this time I have submitted my Inquiry to EEOC. Waiting for my appointment 6/7/22. I’m on FMLA for mental stress leave /anguish. I would truly appreciate you if you can help me with any advise.
Congratulations i know all of that was hard.. prayers to you and hope that you got you needed.. and all blessings from that bad situation that happened..
I am so tired of my own situation.. I have not quit employment yet. Because I contacted a lawyer and he said not to... But these bosses really know how to make an employee miserable, and they don't care if you are dying
My attorney was strategic Beware: He charged a retainer fee for negotiating/mediating the case. In addition to a 40 % contingency fee of whatever monetary settlement you receive Basically he charges a few grand for writing an antagonistic letter that your employer is likely to ignore. A letter that is unlikely to get you any settlement. Then he charges you triple that to file the case with local and federal authorities (EEOC etc). Then he charges double that fee if you want to take it to trial. Problem for the client is that: he (my attorney) knows upfront that the letter he drafts is not going to result in a settlement. Employers will not give your complaints against them any attention (even with having an attorney) without you having any leverage. You only get leverage when you have serious dirt or have charges approved by the local/federal authorities. I ended up filing my case with the OHR myself and they picked up the charges. My attorney didn’t help me with the 10 minute process at all even after I paid him a few grand. As soon as the mediation notice went of from the OHR he reappeared to collect his 40%. Learn from my mistake DONT HIRE AN ATTORNEY TOO SOON. Shoot your own shot and file your case with the local/federal authorities. If they pick it up there’s your leverage. Your employer will likely then want to negotiate (like mine did). If they don’t. Once you get your RIGHT TO SUE then hire an attorney. Now don’t get me wrong although I didn’t like my attorney’s fee schedule and strategy he did provide me with great support and legal advice throughout the beginning of the process so I didn’t mind cutting him 40% of the severance.
You are boxing against billion dollar companies. I've had some issues with an employment agency after I resigned involving doxing and cybercrime with people in my private surroundings. I made a big deal about it ofcourse because it involved very sensitive private stuff but I wasn't allowed to defend myself. It turned out they worked together behind my back. I have a case against them but I have to wait until these criminals press charges against me and i'm still waiting since may 2014/2015. Employers and employment agencies can abuse you indiscriminately I figured out. They make a living hell of your life while telling you there is nothing there in the first place face to face but it always turned out otherwise as soon as I turned my back after all the provocations and questions asked with no reply and a lot of animosity, or opened my phone...
The first game of HR or a supervisor attempting to get an employee to quit is: 1st pull all duties gradually from this person and spread the duties among other existing employees. 2nd inform all personnel to only contact the supervisor versus the employee. 3rd inform outside contacts to only contact the supervisor. This eliminates all communication to the employee. Then the personnel contacting the supervisor pulls away from the employee due to fear of being fired themselves. 4th the employee becomes disgruntled and usually begins to try to talk to others but the environment has become so bad that people don't want to be involved. 5th the disgruntled employee then slips up and says something to someone out of severe frustration. about circumstances and gives the Supv a reason to fire the employee because eventually the employee will say something inappropriate about the supervisor due to the terrible environment. There's no law against a jackass boss, unfortunately. . . . .
Love all of your videos and how simply you’ve explained everything while dividing things up into topics and the organized visual board reference is so helpful too!! One thing I can say about “Constructive Termination” (aka quitting because of intolerable working conditions)***
Thank you for the lawyer referral. You have done an excellent job describing the challenges associated with finding a lawyer while still employed. It’s not like on TV where people find lawyers in 5 min or less!! 😂
Your channel is incredibly informative and helpful. Your explanations are on point and engaging. Thank you for your channel. I hope you are having success and are appreciated for what you do. :)
Im currently dealing with working at a larger corporation. Im sworn at, yelled at and sabotaged in completing lawful medical care by a co worker who is self proclaimed best friends with the new supervisor. Ive complained to the supervisor with no relief from the abuse and sabotage. So here I am to learn my rights
Experiencing discrimination, and the supervisor is plotting by saying I am NOT able to perform assigned job duties, and I am a disgruntled employee by having his employed FRIENDS plot as well with false written accusations to discredit my HR retaliation case. The above scenario is a challenge on my part to prove and I am learning
In some states, they are at-will where it's preached anytime folks can get fired for any reason at any time (of course with the exception of any EEOC regulatory categories haven't been broken). Correct?
It's crazy that you can be fired just because someone doesn't like you as a person. Yelling, putting you in situations you can't possibly hope to succeed in, and you have no recourse....
I live in CA and work for the State of California. I’m on Intermittent FMLA. My manager has told me not to volunteer while I’m out but then wrote me up for not responding while out on leave. She blocked my dr request for RA. Now I’m REQUIRED to login to work, put my out of office on and email my staff when I’m out on FMLA. I’m forced to file disability retirement because my manager and upper management refuse to let me get well, causing undue stress and increasing the number of days needed off.
was skimming through your videos. Im curious to know the uniform laws required by your employer. They state you need to be dressed "in uniform" before clocking in (not getting paid) and they do not allow us to take them home. Also curious as to how much time they need to give us to donning and doffing of such uniforms. Sorry a bit off topic but hoping to make video of this subject.
Amazon threatened to terminate me if I couldn't respond in 24hrs and provide documents I didn't have. They said I fabricated medical documents even though I provided only the documents my doctor's gave me. I had no choice but to quit. It was a Friday and hospital is closed on a Saturday. I've been so sad since I resigned.
They are not on your side. Feel sad they are losing their compass of right action and wrong. Do not look back on any action; look for next step. Be glad you have taken an action that will lead to a new opportunity because you know more. The answer will come for next step; a career coach can be helpful to guide you step by step . Keep going and keep learning. Be well.
What happens when conditions at work are such that your health is affected and you have to go on stress leave and later you want to suit for harassment and pain and suffering due to your health issues?
What if you quit because your paychecks are constantly very late and/or returned NSF? How behind does your pay have to be before you've been constructively discharged?
I got hired at a new job in san diego where I live. I told my previous employer that I am putting my two weeks notice. Unfortunately, her response was taking me off the schedule. I was like, WTF!? Wow. She is disrespectful and unprofessional. Because she is really cheap and doesn't pay commission. Just hourly rate. The new place where I got hired. Offered me. Hourly pay, 40% commission, and tips. So she didn't take it lightly and got rid of me. Is that legal to do? If your employer is letting you go after you put your 2 weeks notice? And decides to get rid of you?
What about those employers who hide their assets or move them around before trial? If the small business knows they are going to lose the case, isn’t it difficult to collect the award if the company says the are “broke”? How can you ensure you can even collect the money?
My company has removed my old position (many across the company) and is trying to move me into another position. I haven't signed a contract yet. This new role is completely different from what I was doing before. Different department. Different skill set. Different tasks and demands. It also requires essentially watching a computer queue all day then reading through pages and pages of data on multiple clients and making decisions in 10 minutes or less. I have suffered from migraines since I was in elementary school. My old role didn't require this kind of intense and long screen time (essentially the whole day) and it is causing migraines regularly. When I originally accepted my old position, I knew its requirements did not have the same long uninterrupted screen watching and reading times, so it wasn't an issue. Now they are sending out the contract to sign, but I don't think I can perform this new job. It feels like they are trying to get me to sign this contract so later on they can fire me for unsatisfactory work, while in my previous role I had many achievements, and every year exceeded expectations.
❤ I’m so sorry to hear your situation. I hate looking at the screen too long. I just said a prayer for you. I hope your situation gets better. In the meantime, is it possible to do any of your work on a laptop outside? That way at least when you look up, you can see trees or birds or something beautiful.
Not sure how to classify what happened to me but I know, and can easily prove, my former employer has broken the law and they know it. Basically, after submitting a letter requesting to be paid for unpaid hours I worked, they stopped communicating with me, stopped giving me jobs, ignored me for two weeks, and then sent two employees to my house to collect their work van and refused to pay me anything. I filed a claim with the Labor Board to retrieve unpaid wages and found out my employer is claiming that I quit and created an entire false narrative to support their "1 quit" campaign. Additionally, I can not receive unemployment as a result. I can easily prove their narrative is a lie, tons of supporting evidence. Frustrating though because I'm not sure where this case would be classified or how to explain it to an intake person who is prescreening calls for lawyers. I know a lawyer will have a field day with my case if I could actually speak to one. Great videos. Super informative. Thank you.
What if, 14 years ago, one was released/fired due to being absent.... Yet to the employee (seven years tenure) that absence was assumed to be a paid vacation day? Initially, employee was only told he was fired by word of mouth (co-workers/gossip). After calling HR, it seems that the office was not yet in knowledge of a termination, so office advised employee that they will investigate the matter. Two days later, office E-mailed employee that the termination was legitimate and final. Employee had no idea if he would even have a case because he was never granted the vacation days by paperwork, but only told verbally by his then supervisor. Employer never rehired employee over the years. A few months ago, former employee decided to apply for a position at same employer, mainly because there was a change in both owners and in allegedly their management. Also it was said that employer was willing to rehire former experienced employees as well.... He was granted an interview and a walkthrough, then was told to expect an offer to be made as they were satisfied with resume and past experiences. Company had never gotten back to the applicant. Applicant had both called and emailed recruiter. (Was told that allegedly ex-managers/co-workers were contacted and to advise if applicant was "deserving" of rehire.) Applicant never had any adversarial relationship with any coworkers or management during his tenure. Also, there's supposedly a "secret file" on the applicant that's only accessible by management. Would this at least be something to discuss with a lawyer or is it too little too late?
Question I quit my job cause they really didn’t listen with my disability moving me to a harder postion:( I didn’t want to leave but I couldn’t work in that hostile work place
I believe my "spontaneous" exit from a government job decades ago meets the criteria of constructive discharge. However, in the wreck of an emotional state that I was in and still am today every time I think of that former employer, I couldn't have muster the mental stamina to even try to explain to any lawyer my case. After watching this video today, I now realized how much of an uphill battle I would've had. Still, I strongly believe that had I been able to articulate my case to a good employment attorney, I would have a winning case!
If racists comments were made in the workplace and the manager may or may have not addressed the situation, and those comments created a very toxic, intolerable work environment having to work with this person daily, and it created mental health issues that led up to me taking a leave of absence and dealing with HR has been a nightmare that contributed to more mental anguish and stress. Would this be grounds for constructive termination? How could i possibly go back to that environment?
with ya. not racism but religious anti Christian bs. I was essentially told by the owner I think I am better than everyone because I didn't participate in eating food I disagree with when people bring it in. And stemming from this he said I don't see any raises in your future LOL well I don't see me coming back to work here😅 without mentioning sexual orientation I can promise the only way I can get a raise is by performing an act.
An attorney told me to state all the reasons of the ill facts I went thru on my resignation letter even though I’m waiting for my EEOC Meeting. What do you think?
Here is one that hopefully can get answer. I know truck drivers can fall in different laws when it comes to the standard employee But how about when a motor carrier aka your company you are working for start to not give work to you despite their reasons and just simply texts you short notice and say no work available for today, consecutively with zero communication on what is going on creating a stressful situation making you lose confidence and trust. And the way this motor carrier pays their driver is by move basis only.
Huge healthcare Corp buys out our smaller company, outsources more than 400 positions, my position was eliminated, in fact they offered us jobs that most of us couldn’t do resulting in massive resignations, these are people that had 20 30 up to 40 years tenure. I have been placed in a position that I can’t do due to medically defined symptoms yet I am being forced to stay in job until I resign
This video is so good and love this guy makes these videos ! Very helpful! God bless !! If I got fired in March 2020 for getting covid can I still sue ?
I have been made to work on the new federal and state recognized holiday June-teenth for the last two years and not paid time and a half or given the day off. I wad told I could take the day off next year if I use my comp time that I've earned to apply it to that holiday taken off upon formally requesting the holiday off in advance. Is this legal? Seems to me it's not.
If a defendant refuses service misleading the server, but the defendant's lawyer contacts the plaintiff trying to persuade him to drop the case while citing the docket number and content of the case, is this constructive service? Not a legal opinion, just your guess...
Dude I've been watching you videos for a while as I am currently seeing pro se in PA my employer and school board for mask mandate. They knew last year that I couldn't wear a mask and placed me in cyber workroom home this year I was escorted out of building for not wearing a mask. I know I have a long way to go and am now waiting for the def answer to my amended complaint. They were trying to dismiss but asked for an extension thats when I amended and add a ton of case law etc to my original complaint. It will be interesting to see what they say this time. I believe my Judge is on the side of the constitution which is awesome. I guess time will tell. But I do enjoy your videos and take notes incase I have to pull something out of my A** later down the line. Hers the thing I 62 dyslexic and going up against two lawyers and school board in western district of PA. No worries I've got this. Thanks for you videos!
Would it still be constructive termination if I was being harassed by employees to the point I quit. And upon quitting my boss blackmailed me into staying. Yes, this actually happened. I still resigned and got away, because it was unsafe.
what happens when you work for a contractor at a mine site for the company for three years and the contract ends and the company gives you an offer then does a back ground check only you and not others and then they resend the offer and you don't get the job
I am being forced to work for no pay illegally and blocked from getting another job which is also a felony. I was layed off and they are blocking me from getting a new job
You are gorgeous! I work at Troon but i cant afford an attorney :-(. I cant take it anymore! , harrassment, bullying, Disparate treatment, failure to accompdate and im. on the verge of writing my letter under the Az constrtive discharge law giving them 15 rays to correct the situation. However, they do not have it posted. I have photos, videos. Recordings, texts and im so emotionally distressed!
I was slandered at work and the desired result was to make me quit, due to the slander creating a hostile work environment. I was told this lie during a disciplinary meeting with my management. They used this lie as a point of attack against me, and was justification for "reducing my footprint" at work. I was insulted, demeaned, castigated in public In front of guests and employees. I was sabotaged and set up to fail on multiple occasions. I have contemporaneous accounts of these events from text messages I sent my ex. I requested a meeting with my GM and one of the Owners and made my claim that I believe that I was defamed and slandered, and due to the lie, it put me in a negative light and was the reason behind all the abhorrent behavior against me. The GM immediately diminished the claim as not a big deal and was said out of hand, and that I was making a big deal out of nothing. I accused 3 people of being involved, 2 hourly employees and 1 of the Managers. My claim was dismissed and no investigation was done, nobody was disciplined, and it was never mentioned again this was in May. The behavior continued through July 3rd when another occurrence happened with 2 of the people involved and I was told that I needed to speak with the GM after the 4th, and I left my shift. I returned because I still had money that I needed to turn in, and the Manager (who I've accused of being apart of the mistreatment) ignored my attempts to return the money, but when I was able to get his attention, there was no de-escalation on his part. And it had been at least 45 mins. I gave him the money, and went home. Between the 4th and the 5th I came into possession of text messages between the 3 people involved and saw that they had been using slurs about me behind my back, all personal attacks, and one of the employees wrote down " we've got to get this Mf tfo of here, he's gonna f us all over and we've worked two hard for this". Calling me a "stupid ass bitch" and telling me to "suck it". The Manager even acknowledged this " I can't even say anything about him to the GM because I'm enemy #1 with him and legal". One of the employees replied "seems like I can't either, lol". I wrote back to my GM, to inform her of the situation and sent the text messages I had on July 5th, July 6th I sent a follow up, and got no response, the 7th still no reply. July 8th I got an email notifying me that my employment had been terminated with no reasoning given". They claim that I wasn't wrongfully terminated after I filed my second complaint about my manager involved in a conspiracy with hourly employees to make my work life unbearable, because I left my shift after I was told I needed to speak with the GM. I even acted in good faith and didn't leave the premises and returned money that was not mine to keep. I felt as though I was left with no options at this point after 5 months of unacceptable behavior on the part of the management and certain employees. All the whole I was being lied to, and gas lit, and the whole experience has had a devistating toll on my patience, mental health, and destroyed my relationship with my girlfriend. They jeopardized my ability to have a healthy work environment, my ability to provide for myself financially, and my personal relationship. With no regard for anything. And I did nothing to these people. But they acted with malice and cruel intent.
@@SnowyCountryChicken draining is awesome when it's a roof flooded with water. This violated 4 federal employment laws and a few California Labor Laws. But because I'm not a member of a "protected class". Wrongful Termination doesn't apply, because I quit, before I was "officially" terminated without cause after I submitted my follow up complaint with proof. However I am pursuing legal action based on a Constructive Discharge basis. Which I have enough direct evidence that points to malicious intent, and I have a fact witness willing to testify against them. So, let's see at the end who's really feeling drained.
I was told i was a no call no show after getting covid, but was talking about quiting beforhand. It is at will employment but can they say im no call no show after getting covid at work? Just feel like im owed covid pay at least if everyone else got it.
Hi I was a Mental Health Nursing student at Huddersfield University in Yorkshire United Kingdom. I was a Course representative working for the Students Union. It was an unpaid voluntary role. I attended meetings with the senior management of the University about Holocaust crimes in ww2, race discrimination in University education in Uk. The University then retaliated and started failing me on the course on purpose after the attendance in the meetings. Are students protected for retaliation if they are subjected to this. Regards Imran
My boss told me that he had to cut hours because it was too slow. Well I looked at the schedule and it had everyone’s hours the same. So why would he tell me this.
I have been exposed to a toxic substance. Employer did not want to fit employees for respirators. I was the Guinea Pig. First full time employer to have to be exposed to said toxic substance. I have “ suspicious “ nodules on my thyroid. Toxic substance has substantial evidence proving to harm the thyroid. I quit because after bringing it to managements attention of the contaminants which I’ve been exposed! They chose to tell me that they felt the environment was safe. I asked for a respirator. They asked me to sign a form saying I willingly accepted an n95 mask.so they don’t have to fit employees Yeah my employer knew about it I had no choice but to resign .
So I’m at the, Hey let’s bury him in an intolerable amount of work with unrealistic deadlines so we can write him up to terminate on grounds of poor performance or make him quit. I respond, “I’ll do my best!” and genuinely do, but then I get yelled at for not meeting his “expectations”. 🤷🏻♂️Is there a better way? I’m 3 months from a worker’s comp injury and 2 weeks from a 6 wk FMLA leave. I’ve worked with them for 23 years and just now learned what I’m worth.
I going to HR tomorrow to let them know my boss is abusing steroids and making work intolerable for us to work due to his anger and paranoia. I am nervous about it.
I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but if you work in an at-will state and not Black, you can pretty much kiss any recovery away. The EEOC will not side with you, even if you’re LGBTQ+. An employer will write you up for minor infractions if they’re hell bent on getting rid of you. This attorney practices in California, which is basically a separate country within the USA. You’re an employee number and everything depends on interpersonal workplace relationships AND you’re replaceable. If you’re gay, you’re a threat to masculinity. If you’re LGBT+, never engage with employees about your personal life no matter how much they press. It’s all unfortunate unless you go into business yourself. Sorry for the reality outside of California and Massachusetts.
Accept the severance and go on about your life. When an employer knows that they are guilty, you’ll typically get a handsome payout. Negotiate it if you feel shortchanged. In my opinion, it just works out better taking severance than paying attorney fees. It all feels personal, and to be honest, it is personal. You’re a threat to someone. The law isn’t necessarily catered to employee rights.
And just like HR, lawyers aren’t your friends either. They cherry pick which cases they will accept. They can also drop you as a client amidst litigation if they become disinterested. So it’s important to know none of these people care about you personally and you’re either a money grab or liability.
⚠ Do you think you were constructively terminated? ⚠
I've just heard of you this week while looking up some EEOC stuff. I am still employed but constructively terminated. I am retaliated against and all of my direct reports moved to someone new with no qualifications who can't even do the job but needs checks. This includes a brand new organization chart with a recent months date. When my employer did that, I actually applied and interviewed for that job with an extensive cover letter explaining why I should have that job which was already my job. I was turned down for someone who has no clue what to do and has articulated that they don't really have a job which is true. It's a fake job. The whole retaliation started because my CEO imposed a bunch of new people on me for an offensive increase without permitting a discussion and none of them even do what my team did so I'd have to learn it well enough to supervise them. The point is that this is all in an email exchange which demonstrates that she was that confident in my abilities until I filed something on her ass. She only promotes and increases one demographic and damn everybody else. Everybody else is her prostitutes. The point is that everything is in writing including being disinvited from all management meetings, and entirely new organization chart. And things no one would believe if I didn't have evidence. I have 100 pieces of infuriating evidence because they can't track what themselves do. I guess the threat of an investigation is going to compel them to the settlement meeting, but I don't expect us to get anywhere even though they continue to attempt to humiliate me and make me quit. They are paying the people she hired to replace me exponentially more money and they're not even qualified to get into the systems our work is in. My new supervisor has asked me to help her learn it's in order to be able to supervise me. Nope. I Guess we're in Hardball now. When you know you're in a jam, you write everything like you know other people are going to be looking at it while the bullies remain oblivious. Winning is in what you collect and i got everything. Look for me. Cali.
If I get fired and I decide demand the company for discrimination if the worse situation I lose the case . Can the employer go after me ?
I think I will be
My son (Joe) is on the Spectrum, w/ social anxiety, and major depressive disorder. He is high functioning, with multiple masters degree, but has not been able to hold a job. We networked with a friend who also has a child on the spectrum. Connected with a large corporation who provides therapy for kids on the spectrum. Thought process was they would certainly be sensitive to the needs of an employee on the Spectrum as they are in the business of providing therapy to kids on the spectrum. Joe was assured accommodations would be provided by the corporation. Third day on the job he was subjected to the most violent client in the facility. Without the required RGB (registered Behavior Therapist) he was placed in charge of administering the program for the violent client. This client regularly went into behavior falling to floor kicking and screaming, and attacking other clients was common. His 2nd session with this client, he requested accommodation to have this client removed from his schedule by a manager. His direct manager had left him in charge of this client while she went on vacation. His next week and a half was fine without the violent client on his schedule. When manager returned, they told Joe they were placing the violent client back on his schedule. Joe was to shadow the manager for 2 weeks with client then determine if he could take on responsibility. Third day into this program, Manager left early, leaving the violent client with Joe alone. The client attempted to attack another client. Joe used the training techniques taught by the manager to separate the client. The client was on floor in behavior, got up fell down after running into Joe's outstretched arms. He cried, but finally got up and left with Joe to the front. The stress of this situation was too much for Joe to continue and he told front desk it was his last day. Corporation called him later and told him he was terminated. A couple of weeks later he received an email from Regulatory as the corporation decided to file a violation with the Regulatory to remove his RBT certification. They stated they called CPS and the police. After an year battle, the regulatory ruled in Joe's favor and stated the corporation may have been retaliatory. There was no CPS or Police Report ever found, so they lied to the regulatory. No longer able to work, because of the stress caused by this ordeal. EEOC filed charge for disability discrimination and retaliation. Now have mediation scheduled, and looking for a lawyer to assist in TX.
Absolutely. Bullied and harassed. Set up, sabotaged and interfered with in my duties. The management at my job knowingly created a hostile work environment for me and even after they slandered me and we're officially notified with my written complaint.. continued the abusive behavior til I was forced to quit. It's when I followed up my complaint with text messages written by the offenders as proof of their involvement, that's when I was officially terminated 2 days later without cause. I have text messages, contemporaneous notes, emails and a fact witness. I'm just not in a "protected class".
I had to file my wrongful termination complaint initially as a pro se litigant because I was having a hard time finding a lawyer and was running up against the statutes of limitations for filing a lawsuit. Your videos have helped me so much with drafting my complaint and understanding employment discrimination laws in general. When I finally found a lawyer to take over my case, she told me my complaint was the most well written complaint by a non-lawyer that she has ever come across throughout her career. I was so proud of myself and just want to say thank you lol. She didn't even think my complaint was worth amending, and now we're just about to enter into the settlement negotiation stages with my former employer.
Hello, How would you name your draft? I would like to start one ASAP. I feel like I’m walking in your shoes about hitting a wall. I’ve been treated so badly by my employer and on now I’m on FMLA for mental anguish.
@@espianmashias9565 Hi there, where are you at in the process right now? Were you fired and you now want to initiate a lawsuit against your former employer for wrongful termination? Also, have you filed a charge with the EEOC yet? Filing a charge is always the first step. You won't be able to bring on a lawsuit without a notice of rights to sue letter, which is issued by the EEOC after they've had an opportunity to investigate your case. If they find that discrimination has taken place, they may file a lawsuit on your behalf but even if they dismiss your charge, you'll still receive a notice of rights to sue letter, which is essentially your golden ticket to being able to sue your former employer. I'm more than happy to share some advice based on my personal experience so far, but just want to get a feel for your current situation right now.
@Nissan Skyline Thank you so much for responding to my comment. At this time I have submitted my Inquiry to EEOC. Waiting for my appointment 6/7/22. I’m on FMLA for mental stress leave /anguish. I would truly appreciate you if you can help me with any advise.
Congratulations i know all of that was hard.. prayers to you and hope that you got you needed.. and all blessings from that bad situation that happened..
I am so tired of my own situation.. I have not quit employment yet. Because I contacted a lawyer and he said not to... But these bosses really know how to make an employee miserable, and they don't care if you are dying
My attorney was strategic Beware: He charged a retainer fee for negotiating/mediating the case. In addition to a 40 % contingency fee of whatever monetary settlement you receive Basically he charges a few grand for writing an antagonistic letter that your employer is likely to ignore. A letter that is unlikely to get you any settlement. Then he charges you triple that to file the case with local and federal authorities (EEOC etc). Then he charges double that fee if you want to take it to trial. Problem for the client is that: he (my attorney) knows upfront that the letter he drafts is not going to result in a settlement. Employers will not give your complaints against them any attention (even with having an attorney) without you having any leverage. You only get leverage when you have serious dirt or have charges approved by the local/federal authorities. I ended up filing my case with the OHR myself and they picked up the charges. My attorney didn’t help me with the 10 minute process at all even after I paid him a few grand. As soon as the mediation notice went of from the OHR he reappeared to collect his 40%. Learn from my mistake DONT HIRE AN ATTORNEY TOO SOON. Shoot your own shot and file your case with the local/federal authorities. If they pick it up there’s your leverage. Your employer will likely then want to negotiate (like mine did). If they don’t. Once you get your RIGHT TO SUE then hire an attorney.
Now don’t get me wrong although I didn’t like my attorney’s fee schedule and strategy he did provide me with great support and legal advice throughout the beginning of the process so I didn’t mind cutting him 40% of the severance.
You are boxing against billion dollar companies.
I've had some issues with an employment agency after I resigned involving doxing and cybercrime with people in my private surroundings.
I made a big deal about it ofcourse because it involved very sensitive private stuff but I wasn't allowed to defend myself.
It turned out they worked together behind my back.
I have a case against them but I have to wait until these criminals press charges against me and i'm still waiting since may 2014/2015.
Employers and employment agencies can abuse you indiscriminately I figured out.
They make a living hell of your life while telling you there is nothing there in the first place face to face but it always turned out otherwise as soon as I turned my back after all the provocations and questions asked with no reply and a lot of animosity, or opened my phone...
The first game of HR or a supervisor attempting to get an employee to quit is: 1st pull all duties gradually from this person and spread the duties among other existing employees. 2nd inform all personnel to only contact the supervisor versus the employee. 3rd inform outside contacts to only contact the supervisor. This eliminates all communication to the employee. Then the personnel contacting the supervisor pulls away from the employee due to fear of being fired themselves. 4th the employee becomes disgruntled and usually begins to try to talk to others but the environment has become so bad that people don't want to be involved. 5th the disgruntled employee then slips up and says something to someone out of severe frustration. about circumstances and gives the Supv a reason to fire the employee because eventually the employee will say something inappropriate about the supervisor due to the terrible environment. There's no law against a jackass boss, unfortunately. . . . .
HOLY COW, YOUR BACK... YES! Dude I thought you went MIA and was pretty sad but I'm glad to see you back making content
Never ever QUIT. They have to fire you and you have more power.
Thank you for showing me strength I was lost and and you gave freedom to never fall again
Love all of your videos and how simply you’ve explained everything while dividing things up into topics and the organized visual board reference is so helpful too!! One thing I can say about “Constructive Termination” (aka quitting because of intolerable working conditions)***
Thank you for the lawyer referral. You have done an excellent job describing the challenges associated with finding a lawyer while still employed. It’s not like on TV where people find lawyers in 5 min or less!! 😂
Your channel is incredibly informative and helpful. Your explanations are on point and engaging. Thank you for your channel. I hope you are having success and are appreciated for what you do. :)
I watch all your videos. Everything you put out on UA-cam is great knowledge. Keep up the good work.
Im currently dealing with working at a larger corporation. Im sworn at, yelled at and sabotaged in completing lawful medical care by a co worker who is self proclaimed best friends with the new supervisor. Ive complained to the supervisor with no relief from the abuse and sabotage. So here I am to learn my rights
I for one wish the videos were longer. GREAT WORK AND THANK YOU!!!
Experiencing discrimination, and the supervisor is plotting by saying I am NOT able to perform assigned job duties, and I am a disgruntled employee by having his employed FRIENDS plot as well with false written accusations to discredit my HR retaliation case.
The above scenario is a challenge on my part to prove and I am learning
Any update? Same situation
Thank you. Very applicable to my situation. I'm not in CA, but this gets me thinking.
Excellent video with invaluable information. Thank you soooo much!!!!!❤️❤️❤️✊🏼✊🏼✊🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼🥰
In some states, they are at-will where it's preached anytime folks can get fired for any reason at any time (of course with the exception of any EEOC regulatory categories haven't been broken). Correct?
It's crazy that you can be fired just because someone doesn't like you as a person. Yelling, putting you in situations you can't possibly hope to succeed in, and you have no recourse....
Sounds like my last job. In Minnesota
Love the bro factor in the brobertson law
However if a positon is an 'appointed position' within a state agency, it is known that this position can be fired at anytime!
I been waiting for you to come back
Very informative. Thank you! 🙏
Very good videos my lawyer, keep them.
I live in CA and work for the State of California. I’m on Intermittent FMLA. My manager has told me not to volunteer while I’m out but then wrote me up for not responding while out on leave. She blocked my dr request for RA. Now I’m REQUIRED to login to work, put my out of office on and email my staff when I’m out on FMLA. I’m forced to file disability retirement because my manager and upper management refuse to let me get well, causing undue stress and increasing the number of days needed off.
was skimming through your videos. Im curious to know the uniform laws required by your employer. They state you need to be dressed "in uniform" before clocking in (not getting paid) and they do not allow us to take them home. Also curious as to how much time they need to give us to donning and doffing of such uniforms. Sorry a bit off topic but hoping to make video of this subject.
Your videos are informative and educational & relevant even down here in Africa . love from Kenya 🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪

Amazon threatened to terminate me if I couldn't respond in 24hrs and provide documents I didn't have. They said I fabricated medical documents even though I provided only the documents my doctor's gave me. I had no choice but to quit. It was a Friday and hospital is closed on a Saturday. I've been so sad since I resigned.
They are not on your side. Feel sad they are losing their compass of right action and wrong. Do not look back on any action; look for next step. Be glad you have taken an action that will lead to a new opportunity because you know more. The answer will come for next step; a career coach can be helpful to guide you step by step .
Keep going and keep learning.
Be well.
What happens when conditions at work are such that your health is affected and you have to go on stress leave and later you want to suit for harassment and pain and suffering due to your health issues?
Thank you for the great information!
What if you quit because your paychecks are constantly very late and/or returned NSF? How behind does your pay have to be before you've been constructively discharged?
Always Excellent!
I got hired at a new job in san diego where I live. I told my previous employer that I am putting my two weeks notice. Unfortunately, her response was taking me off the schedule. I was like, WTF!? Wow. She is disrespectful and unprofessional. Because she is really cheap and doesn't pay commission. Just hourly rate. The new place where I got hired. Offered me. Hourly pay, 40% commission, and tips. So she didn't take it lightly and got rid of me. Is that legal to do? If your employer is letting you go after you put your 2 weeks notice? And decides to get rid of you?
What about those employers who hide their assets or move them around before trial? If the small business knows they are going to lose the case, isn’t it difficult to collect the award if the company says the are “broke”? How can you ensure you can even collect the money?
That's a big topic that cannot be honestly answered in a UA-cam comment.
My company has removed my old position (many across the company) and is trying to move me into another position. I haven't signed a contract yet. This new role is completely different from what I was doing before. Different department. Different skill set. Different tasks and demands. It also requires essentially watching a computer queue all day then reading through pages and pages of data on multiple clients and making decisions in 10 minutes or less. I have suffered from migraines since I was in elementary school. My old role didn't require this kind of intense and long screen time (essentially the whole day) and it is causing migraines regularly. When I originally accepted my old position, I knew its requirements did not have the same long uninterrupted screen watching and reading times, so it wasn't an issue. Now they are sending out the contract to sign, but I don't think I can perform this new job. It feels like they are trying to get me to sign this contract so later on they can fire me for unsatisfactory work, while in my previous role I had many achievements, and every year exceeded expectations.
❤ I’m so sorry to hear your situation. I hate looking at the screen too long. I just said a prayer for you. I hope your situation gets better. In the meantime, is it possible to do any of your work on a laptop outside? That way at least when you look up, you can see trees or birds or something beautiful.
Not sure how to classify what happened to me but I know, and can easily prove, my former employer has broken the law and they know it. Basically, after submitting a letter requesting to be paid for unpaid hours I worked, they stopped communicating with me, stopped giving me jobs, ignored me for two weeks, and then sent two employees to my house to collect their work van and refused to pay me anything. I filed a claim with the Labor Board to retrieve unpaid wages and found out my employer is claiming that I quit and created an entire false narrative to support their "1 quit" campaign. Additionally, I can not receive unemployment as a result. I can easily prove their narrative is a lie, tons of supporting evidence. Frustrating though because I'm not sure where this case would be classified or how to explain it to an intake person who is prescreening calls for lawyers. I know a lawyer will have a field day with my case if I could actually speak to one. Great videos. Super informative. Thank you.
❤I’m so sorry you are experiencing this. Yes, just finding someone to hear us is the biggest challenge.
Please more videos
Working on it... Thanks for watching.
What if, 14 years ago, one was released/fired due to being absent.... Yet to the employee (seven years tenure) that absence was assumed to be a paid vacation day? Initially, employee was only told he was fired by word of mouth (co-workers/gossip). After calling HR, it seems that the office was not yet in knowledge of a termination, so office advised employee that they will investigate the matter. Two days later, office E-mailed employee that the termination was legitimate and final. Employee had no idea if he would even have a case because he was never granted the vacation days by paperwork, but only told verbally by his then supervisor.
Employer never rehired employee over the years.
A few months ago, former employee decided to apply for a position at same employer, mainly because there was a change in both owners and in allegedly their management. Also it was said that employer was willing to rehire former experienced employees as well.... He was granted an interview and a walkthrough, then was told to expect an offer to be made as they were satisfied with resume and past experiences. Company had never gotten back to the applicant. Applicant had both called and emailed recruiter.
(Was told that allegedly ex-managers/co-workers were contacted and to advise if applicant was "deserving" of rehire.) Applicant never had any adversarial relationship with any coworkers or management during his tenure. Also, there's supposedly a "secret file" on the applicant that's only accessible by management.
Would this at least be something to discuss with a lawyer or is it too little too late?
Thanks for the info.
Question I quit my job cause they really didn’t listen with my disability moving me to a harder postion:( I didn’t want to leave but I couldn’t work in that hostile work place
I believe my "spontaneous" exit from a government job decades ago meets the criteria of constructive discharge. However, in the wreck of an emotional state that I was in and still am today every time I think of that former employer, I couldn't have muster the mental stamina to even try to explain to any lawyer my case. After watching this video today, I now realized how much of an uphill battle I would've had. Still, I strongly believe that had I been able to articulate my case to a good employment attorney, I would have a winning case!
If racists comments were made in the workplace and the manager may or may have not addressed the situation, and those comments created a very toxic, intolerable work environment having to work with this person daily, and it created mental health issues that led up to me taking a leave of absence and dealing with HR has been a nightmare that contributed to more mental anguish and stress. Would this be grounds for constructive termination? How could i possibly go back to that environment?
with ya. not racism but religious anti Christian bs. I was essentially told by the owner I think I am better than everyone because I didn't participate in eating food I disagree with when people bring it in. And stemming from this he said I don't see any raises in your future LOL well I don't see me coming back to work here😅 without mentioning sexual orientation I can promise the only way I can get a raise is by performing an act.
An attorney told me to state all the reasons of the ill facts I went thru on my resignation letter even though I’m waiting for my EEOC Meeting. What do you think?
I really likes your videos & I learn a lot. Thanks. Gracias.
Here is one that hopefully can get answer.
I know truck drivers can fall in different laws when it comes to the standard employee
But how about when a motor carrier aka your company you are working for start to not give work to you despite their reasons and just simply texts you short notice and say no work available for today, consecutively with zero communication on what is going on creating a stressful situation making you lose confidence and trust.
And the way this motor carrier pays their driver is by move basis only.
Huge healthcare Corp buys out our smaller company, outsources more than 400 positions, my position was eliminated, in fact they offered us jobs that most of us couldn’t do resulting in massive resignations, these are people that had 20 30 up to 40 years tenure.

Who’s be the one to go? To whom saying anything, I haven’t heard anything from attorney handling case Lawsuit.
Would it still be constructive termination if I was being harassed by employees to the point I quit. And upon quitting my boss blackmailed me into staying. Yes, this actually happened. I still resigned and got away, because it was unsafe.
I'm not an attorney but that is usually considered a hostile work environment.

You are gorgeous! I work at Troon but i cant afford an attorney :-(. I cant take it anymore! , harrassment, bullying, Disparate treatment, failure to accompdate and im. on the verge of writing my letter under the Az constrtive discharge law giving them 15 rays to correct the situation. However, they do not have it posted. I have photos, videos. Recordings, texts and im so emotionally distressed!
I was slandered at work and the desired result was to make me quit, due to the slander creating a hostile work environment. I was told this lie during a disciplinary meeting with my management. They used this lie as a point of attack against me, and was justification for "reducing my footprint" at work. I was insulted, demeaned, castigated in public In front of guests and employees. I was sabotaged and set up to fail on multiple occasions. I have contemporaneous accounts of these events from text messages I sent my ex. I requested a meeting with my GM and one of the Owners and made my claim that I believe that I was defamed and slandered, and due to the lie, it put me in a negative light and was the reason behind all the abhorrent behavior against me. The GM immediately diminished the claim as not a big deal and was said out of hand, and that I was making a big deal out of nothing. I accused 3 people of being involved, 2 hourly employees and 1 of the Managers. My claim was dismissed and no investigation was done, nobody was disciplined, and it was never mentioned again this was in May. The behavior continued through July 3rd when another occurrence happened with 2 of the people involved and I was told that I needed to speak with the GM after the 4th, and I left my shift. I returned because I still had money that I needed to turn in, and the Manager (who I've accused of being apart of the mistreatment) ignored my attempts to return the money, but when I was able to get his attention, there was no de-escalation on his part. And it had been at least 45 mins. I gave him the money, and went home. Between the 4th and the 5th I came into possession of text messages between the 3 people involved and saw that they had been using slurs about me behind my back, all personal attacks, and one of the employees wrote down " we've got to get this Mf tfo of here, he's gonna f us all over and we've worked two hard for this". Calling me a "stupid ass bitch" and telling me to "suck it". The Manager even acknowledged this " I can't even say anything about him to the GM because I'm enemy #1 with him and legal". One of the employees replied "seems like I can't either, lol". I wrote back to my GM, to inform her of the situation and sent the text messages I had on July 5th, July 6th I sent a follow up, and got no response, the 7th still no reply. July 8th I got an email notifying me that my employment had been terminated with no reasoning given". They claim that I wasn't wrongfully terminated after I filed my second complaint about my manager involved in a conspiracy with hourly employees to make my work life unbearable, because I left my shift after I was told I needed to speak with the GM. I even acted in good faith and didn't leave the premises and returned money that was not mine to keep. I felt as though I was left with no options at this point after 5 months of unacceptable behavior on the part of the management and certain employees. All the whole I was being lied to, and gas lit, and the whole experience has had a devistating toll on my patience, mental health, and destroyed my relationship with my girlfriend. They jeopardized my ability to have a healthy work environment, my ability to provide for myself financially, and my personal relationship. With no regard for anything. And I did nothing to these people. But they acted with malice and cruel intent.
I am sorry this happened to you. Work shouldn't be draining.
@@SnowyCountryChicken draining is awesome when it's a roof flooded with water. This violated 4 federal employment laws and a few California Labor Laws. But because I'm not a member of a "protected class". Wrongful Termination doesn't apply, because I quit, before I was "officially" terminated without cause after I submitted my follow up complaint with proof. However I am pursuing legal action based on a Constructive Discharge basis. Which I have enough direct evidence that points to malicious intent, and I have a fact witness willing to testify against them. So, let's see at the end who's really feeling drained.

Hi I was a Mental Health Nursing student at Huddersfield University in Yorkshire United Kingdom. I was a Course representative working for the Students Union. It was an unpaid voluntary role. I attended meetings with the senior management of the University about Holocaust crimes in ww2, race discrimination in University education in Uk. The University then retaliated and started failing me on the course on purpose after the attendance in the meetings. Are students protected for retaliation if they are subjected to this.

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but if you work in an at-will state and not Black, you can pretty much kiss any recovery away. The EEOC will not side with you, even if you’re LGBTQ+. An employer will write you up for minor infractions if they’re hell bent on getting rid of you. This attorney practices in California, which is basically a separate country within the USA. You’re an employee number and everything depends on interpersonal workplace relationships AND you’re replaceable. If you’re gay, you’re a threat to masculinity. If you’re LGBT+, never engage with employees about your personal life no matter how much they press. It’s all unfortunate unless you go into business yourself. Sorry for the reality outside of California and Massachusetts.
Accept the severance and go on about your life. When an employer knows that they are guilty, you’ll typically get a handsome payout. Negotiate it if you feel shortchanged. In my opinion, it just works out better taking severance than paying attorney fees. It all feels personal, and to be honest, it is personal. You’re a threat to someone. The law isn’t necessarily catered to employee rights.
And just like HR, lawyers aren’t your friends either. They cherry pick which cases they will accept. They can also drop you as a client amidst litigation if they become disinterested. So it’s important to know none of these people care about you personally and you’re either a money grab or liability.
The only cases I can think of that would be considered would be Black racism, nonpayment of overtime or overt sexual harassment.
