These jokes aren’t funny. Unfortunately, I see a lot of this in the workplace. Accusing you of being “on your period” any time you disagree with someone is just plain stupid!

Let’s talk about how contingency agreements work. While not all services are free, case evaluations usually are!
.
At my office, the initial evaluation is free. When we sign a case, we usually charge nothing until we win.
.
This arrangement gives you access to the best workers rights lawyers even if you don’t have any money.

Let’s talk about “stress leave,” or as U.S. lawyers call it, FMLA leave. You might qualify even if your mental health condition is temporary.

Should you disclose a disability even if you DONT need an accommodation?
It’s a tricky situation and I’m sure there will be a debate, but my philosophy is that—when it comes to your rights—it’s better to okay it safe.
This came from my Ask Me Anything series. I’ll make more reels with answers to legal and career questions in the comments!

“Why am I so lazy??”
If you have the initiative to ask this question, then I am positive you are NOT lazy. You’re tired. And that’s ok.
Take care of YOU first. Because we need you ❤️

Boeing is in a very weak bargaining position. I expect the IAM Labor Union is going to go straight for the throat during negotiations.
.
Link to the full article is in my story. This was authored by @sarasamora and she did an EXCELLENT job. She also got some quotes from me which I think really show what we can expect in this new union agreement.

What to do if you suddenly get fired today:
1. Don’t threaten to sue, and don’t plead your case. They already decided to fire you so at best you’re wasting your time and at worst you are ruining your case.
2. Don’t sign anything. If they say you have to sign to get your last check, they are lying.
3. DONT SIGN ANYTHING. Even if they offer a severance and say you can’t get it unless you sign, take the time to review that with a lawyer! Because once you sign, it’s over!

Bullying is NOT illegal in most cases. But a hostile work environment caused by harassment is!
.
What’s the difference?
.
A hostile work environment is severe and/or pervasive (meaning frequent) abuse directed at you BECAUSE of a protected characteristic, protected class, or protected activity.
.
So if you want HR to pay attention, it’s not enough to say you have a bully. Use the right language to get the help you need.

If the employer lies or presents inconsistent statements while fighting your unemployment, we can use that in your case!
Because the employer’s credibility is ALWAYS relevant!

What if you’re removed from the schedule, instead of being formally “fired?”

Rounding policies are legal when they do NOT result in consistent underpayment. But a lot of big companies rely on underpayment to pad their profits. Here’s what to look for so you don’t get ripped off.

I forgot everything about that day except for the following:
1. Dave was not afraid to be himself.
2. Dave ate 20 tacos.
3. Dave got an F.
4. Dave is now (last I heard at least) a successful personal injury attorney in California.
I’m not saying we should be like Dave all the time, because that would be chaos. But I think there’s a little bit of Dave in all of us, and maybe, just maybe, we should not be afraid to let him out once in a while.

Why are companies so afraid of whistleblowers?
.
Because a well-executed whistleblower event can hit the company in the only place that matters to them: Their wallets.
.
But he smart! Consult an attorney if you’re not sure how to properly blow the whistle, and DOCUMENT your complaints!

Constructive wrongful termination is when you’ve been forced out of a job in a way that, even though you were not technically “fired,” you could still be entitled to compensation for constructive wrongful dismissal.
.
IT IS A HIGH BAR TO MEET. You’ll need a lawyers help.
.
But the question I get is HOW would you give notice of a resignation in a situation like that?
.
Here’s a template that shows one example.
.
BUT BEWARE. Constructive dismissal claims require expert assistance to pursue and you’re gonna fight uphill for those. This is educational content for discussion and information only. It is NOT legal advice for your specific situation.

Why is it not enough to just be profitable? Because chasing infinitely growing profits in a finite world is not just impossible, it’s counter productive.
.
You’d make more in the long run delivering value to customers. But idk, I’m just a labor lawyer and a small business owner. Maybe a 23 year old McKinsey consultant knows better than I do.

If I had my way, no client of mine would ever do an exit interview. You risk ruining your whole case as HR gathers free information from you, and you gain nothing.
.
There’s just no benefit to be had here, and the risk is too high. So don’t do it! That’s my honest opinion.
