What is the name of your state?PA
I left my employer in december due to repeated comments made to me and my subordinates about me.
On several occassions my supervisor referred to me as his "little piggie" during conference calls as well as just phone calls and face to face meetings. He would call my various stores and when asking for me he would say "Is the fat ******* there, or is he out eating again?"
I went to HR on several ocassions about this behavior, always being told there was nothing they could do since weight is not a protected class. I know weight is not a protected class, but this this type of behavior premitted? I took this behavior for about 9 months before finally being forced to resign my position due to lack of support.
I have had eating disorders in the past and these comments have caused me to, while not going back to the disorder, become very super sensitive about my weight.
In February of this year, my former supervisor was released from his position for unprofessional behavior.
Is there anything I can do? My career has suffered since leaving that position, as I quit with no notice and have been branded "not eligible for rehire".
