What is the name of your state?NC
I recently got a job with the US POSTAL MAIL AS a courier thru a courier service . the job was refered by the local county ESC . The job Description was approx . 5 and a half hours a day 16.54 per hour . Hours 5:15 am to 8 am and 5 pm to 7pm . after a month os screening to get a us mail badge I started the job and was told to report at 4:30am ,i did . that morning ended at 9:30 . 5 hours . then was told to report at 3:00pm . i did that ended 7:30pm . the nex day i reported as asked 4:30am. before leaving and after loading to go on the route i asked the boss why did a 5 and half hour job take over 9 hours . he said NO he was under contract to only pay 5 1/2 hours no matter how long i worked . I was Terminated on the spot ,Badge taken and no reason was given . The esc still think its a 5 1/2 hour a day job and they called me a lier . the route is 144 miles X evening 144 miles divide by 55 mph = 5.25 hours plus the time it takes to load the truck and and unload at 5 different post offices , the reverse in the evening . . I never signed a contract The Courier Service hired me but i had access and federal clearance to the post office hence the uspostal application and the fingerprinting background check to obtain a Badge to open the back doors of all the post offices. i worked exactly 1 and half day before i got terminated . He paid me 131.00 for 7.5 hours when i worked 14.9 hours with a personal check .He never gave me or the esc (employment security commission) a valid reason but i know it was me asking about the hours verse the pay he reported at the esc. I have reported him to the dept of labor with my compaint . The ESC told me approx 5.5 hours and a specifif time at 16.54 per hour told me i got paid from the time i drove the mail truck to the time i left work . The courier service boss whe is 72 also told me he wanted some one older and called me i didnt get along with the people at the post office workers and that i was tempermental . Lies and i know most of the people on the route anyways and am 48 and i was Kind and thoughtful the day and a half . So i think there is Wrongful Termination ,Age Discrimination Slander And wage fraud I have consulted a local laywer and he said he thought he would have to file a lawsuit but didnt have the time to do the research and dumped me I was wrongfuly terminated , discriminated for my age slandered and there is wage fraud all in this case .free advice please on the wrongful termination .
.have i got a case with a lawyer ?
