THANK YOU. Seriously, you didn't wonder where everyone else was going when they all stood up and walked to the meeting? Do you have no friends in the office?
she's a stupid retard, sue her ass until she goes to hell.
YDI for having a female boss
Litigation is the American way. In America you are almost always forced to go this route because most businesses don't take complaints seriously unless you threaten legal action.
That really sucks. And here I was upset that I didn't get the emails about the team building event today (sent to everyone BUT me).
You mean you still got fired for the same thing or did they decide to use some other lame excuse instead? Employers are not required to give you a good reason. There's no reason for them not to fabricate a reason after the fact either (even if it's illegal). I'd be willing to bet they can get better lawyers than a jobless person as well. In other words, unless you have some way to explicitly prove it, you're screwed. FYL
... unless you can explicitly prove otherwise, of course. :> (Tried to add that before the timer expired, but it thought I was double-posting. Now I was forced to double-post. Whacked links....)
That is enough for you to sue...
To all those suggesting this person sue, not enough information is given to definitively determine if the person has a meritorious cause of action for wrongful action, however, presuming this person was working in Texas, she likely does not have a cause of action for wrongful termination. Many states are "employee at will" states meaning that the employee or employer can terminate the employment relationship at any time for any reason (except for an illegal reason such as race, ethnicity, gender, etc.). In these states, if the employee is an employee at will then no cause need be given to terminate the employee, and depending on the state's laws, even if a wrong cause is given, such as if the employee is accused of a theft that is later discovered to have been committed by a third party, the employee may still not have a cause of action for wrongful termination. To determine if the person has a cause of action we would need to know whether the person had a contract with the employer that would have modified the employee at will status, and if so, what terms for termination are spelled out in that contract. Without this information no final answer can be given as to the issue of a meritorious wrongful termination suit. P.S. By the way, I'm a lawyer ;)
I'm not reading all that P.S. I'm not a lawyer
If you got enough time, money and will, sue. or rape her, that totally works too.

Woah that REALLY sucks. Can she do that?
Yeah, I doubt she can actually do that. Sue
