What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)?
California – My boss always harasses me to do his work, and would make my day a living hell until I help him. So one day, being really upset and alone in my office I made threatening comments about my boss, out of frustration (saying that I was going to kill him) however in the office alone. It was a closed door office and everyone left. I suspected there was a hidden camera and recording device in the office, but there's no proof and figured I was alone so I was able to vent to myself and act angrily.
I had no intentions of hurting anyone, but wanted to get my bosses’ attention of stop harassing me to do his work (if he was spying and wiring tapping on me).
My questions are:
Can they use those comments against me, even though it was recorded and I was alone in my office? There are no warning signs about the cameras and recording devices in the office?
Can I sue them for privacy rights because my other coworker is the one that told me that they installed the hidden cameras?
