What is the name of your state? Texas
I was just terminated without going through any steps. Basicaly,the reason they gave is for creating a hostile work enviorment. I believe it has to do with nepotism in the HR department. I got into an argument with a fellow employee in the Maintenence department. The problem is,this other employees wife works in HR. When I 1st went to talk to the HR director,this was the point I made. How can a dispute between me and an employee whos wife works in HR be treated fairly? She became infuriated and a few days later I was suspended for 3 days. After 1 day of the suspension,I was terminated. I had never been late,missed any work,or been in any kind of trouble before this. Just some heated words with an HR employees husband. The real kick in the pants,is that 1 employee had broadcast the N-word over the walkie-talkies and he still has his job. And the man I got into the argument with had been charged with sexual harrassment and had set off fireworks in the parking lot and he still has his job. I strongly feel that the real reason I was terminated,is because I wouldn't go along with the conflict of interest and nepotism in the plants HR department. Even though it is spelled out in the companys rules and regulations that nepotism is severly frowned apon. Do I stand a chance in a court of law? Surely the nepotism itself is the root cause in an already hostile work enviorment..............Garry
