I was recently employed by a county government department as a camp counselor/clerical assistant by the director of a local non profit county run community theatre (for whom I also auditioned and got a part in the current production). After I made a mistake on filling out a form, the director said, "Are you that dumb?". When I told him it was inappropriate to call me dumb, he said he didn't call me dumb, just asked if I was dumb. (I'm a recent honors grad with a 3.88 GPA, so I told him I was indeed not dumb). He then continued to further berate me in front of another employee until I was reduced to tears. The next night I resigned from both the job and the part in the play. This same director has made similar comments to other play participants (only the high school and college age girls) in previous productions. Do have I a case against him, and can I collect the pay that he owes me for the days that I worked?
