You don't beat someone up when they're down. I'm sorry, but I'll never understand mean people.

As I said most of any of the other posts go something like this: You have no legal ground and you are totally screwed, go down to the soup kitchen and hope to God someone hires you and stop complaining. How useful is that. From the posts I have read over time all of these EEOC laws have no teeth, employers can pretty much do what ever they want and get away with it unless they do something WAY over the top. So all im saying is whats the point, are you just waiting for someone to come on here and say I have video tape evidence of an employer making a racial slur because thats all that seems to get an EEOC action and even then as another poster said it can take up to 18 months, by that time the poster will have already gone into forclosure and/or be homeless. Its the same story with the military section and child support section. Anyone trying to get legal relief seems to get the same answer: your totally screwed go set up a tent in central park and hope they arrest you because at least you will have food to eat, this nation is going to be comming upon a rude awakening pretty soon.rppearso, what is the point of you being here if all you're going to do is stir up political controversy? I think it's pretty obvious that since you've only made 157 posts in over 4 years, you aren't actually helping posters with their questions.
That is just not true. There are plenty of questions in the Employment Law forums where we agree that the employer has violated the law and we give the poster the options for legal recourse.Anyone trying to get legal relief seems to get the same answer: your totally screwed go set up a tent in central park and hope they arrest you because at least you will have food to eat, this nation is going to be comming upon a rude awakening pretty soon.
I was orignially on here for military advice which I got very nasty comments and finally some good advice but either way I have seen very few cases where the OP has meaningful legal recourse UNLESS the employer did something WAY over the top.That is just not true.

Where did you come from, anyway?
Your right, its just very unfortunate that the federal gov does not create more aggressive laws to deal with issues that people have with employers. I would be curious to see what would happen if unemployment hit around 50% if the gov would step in and put there foot down. It is kind of turning back into the days where there were company stores and when they were done with you they just threw you out on the street, that is definitly not first world quality of life. I guess my point is there is really not much "law" when it comes to employment, "at-will" is pretty much lawless except for a very narrow band of things.What's more, whether the same laws benefit the employer or the employee depends on the job market. The at-will doctrine has not noticably changed in the past decade, nor have most of the major Federal laws changed markedly (and what changes there have been, mostly benefit the employee) but ten years ago the at-will doctrine strongly benefited the employee, not the employer. Today it is the other way around. That is not the fault of the posters here; it is a result of the changed economy. The pendulum has swung, and it will swing back again.
Would you prefer that we told the posters that yes, the employer was acting illegally and they could sue, when it was NOT true? Would that be helping them?
Nope - at will is well defined. Furthermore, why would it be ok to infringe on the rights of one set of people in favor of another set?I guess my point is there is really not much "law" when it comes to employment, "at-will" is pretty much lawless except for a very narrow band of things.
