abused artist
Junior Member
Hello all. Sadly my job as a graphic artist for hire has become intollerable . My boss has cut my hours to a point that I can not accept. He will not fire ( he has as much told me in the past because he will never pay the added penalty) I have seen other employees " frozen out " in the past and quit, now I guess it's may turn. The clients we have adore me and love my work. I think I can go out on my own and make a go of it.
He is the kind to try and take action against me when he discovers that I am now his competition. I wouldn't be surprised to get a cease and desist letter on the first day. I would like to protect myself if I can. I cannot afford to defend a law suit but he can afford to bring one.
I have been a straight W2 employee, no contract or non competitive agreement.
I have no intention of using any of his marketing verbage or price list. I will be calling on the clients that we work with and I would like to show samples of my work I have done while working for this company.
What kind of trouble can he cause me? Thanks in Advance
