10/4 i know that most ppl sign an at-will contract with their high tech
employers, but can an employer let you go and might possibly hire
someone without cause (other than perhaps "don't like you" or "don't
like your attitude")? if not and they did, is there anything that one
can do? and, will you be able to get umemployment benefit?
\_ If you're not in a union, you're at will in CA. You can ask a
labor lawyer or the CA state labor board (or whatever it's called).
If fired = no unemployment. If laid off = yes unemployment.
\_ At will doesn't really mean at will. They can't fire you because
you're too old, or because you're black, or because you won't give
a blow job to the boss, or whatever... you have rights.
\_ Don't be naive. They won't put "fired: old, black, lousy bjs"
on your exit forms. You're in CA. You're at will.
\_ But can they fire you if you won't get a blowjob from the boss?
\_ Yes. They can fire you for not accepting your boss's offer
of a mandatory bj. You're at-will. You can be fired for
absolutely anything. |
