| Topic | Would you be pissed off in this situation? - What Would You Do (WWYD) |

If you are on a vacation and they decided to add a deadline (whether or not they knew you were on vacation to start with is a moot point) You are not on their clock, and as a result, aside from doing an action that could besmirch the company (which requires people to know you work for them) they can't really get you for anything, they try, you sue, and you win. You seem to be forgetting that many states are "at will employment states" which means they don't need any reason to fire you. They can drop your ass at any time for just about any reason, with only a few exceptions that are protected under federal law, such as race, religion, sexual preference, etc. Even in the states that aren't "at will" you would not win a lawsuit over this. Your employer wouldn't have grounds to fight your unemployment claim. But you're not winning a lawsuit over thus. --- John Mellencamp said it best "Life goes on long after the thrill of living is gone." ... Copied to Clipboard! |
