Harassment By Your Boss

One of my buddies
is an excellent salesperson.

She has been
blowing the sh*t
out of her quotas,
performing like the star
she is.

Her customers like
and trust her.
Her coworkers
also like her.

Her new boss,
however,
is a woman-hating
a$$.

He wants her gone
but he can’t fire her.
He doesn’t have grounds
for that
and
he also doesn’t want
to pay her the severance
she’d deserve.

So he’s harassing her.
He calls her
at all hours of the night.
He books meetings
when she has to pick up
her kids from school.
He assigns her extra work
and he bad talks her behind her back.

He is trying to force her
to quit.

This technique is so common
it has a name
constructive dismissal
– and it is illegal
in many countries.

If you feel
you’re being targeted,
see a skilled employment lawyer.

Follow that lawyer’s advice.

Gather the evidence
you’ll need for a case
against your employer.

Get the severance
you deserve
and ensure that a$$ never does that
to another employee.

If you’re an employer
and/or a business builder,
watch for signs
of constructive dismissal.
It is a lawsuit waiting to happen
AND
it is costing you
skilled employees.

Because, when my buddy leaves
her current employer,
she’s taking ALL her customers
with her.

F*ck her current boss
and f*ck her current employer
who is allowing the harassment
to happen.

Layoffs And Respect

A jacka$$ of a CEO
fired 900 employees
all at once
over Zoom.

Letting employees go over Zoom
isn’t an issue.
Remote workers
are accustomed
to doing almost everything virtually.

The disrespectful act
was firing all of them
at once,
not giving them the courtesy
of a one-on-one meeting,
forcing some of them
to breakdown emotionally
in front of their peers,
completely ravaging their pride.

That was cruel.
That was hateful.

And, in many countries,
that inhumane treatment would result
in company-bankrupting lawsuits.

If you have to let employees go,
inform them of that
in semi-private surroundings.
