Certainly there are cases that are clear cut, though there will always be a burden of proof that must be fulfilled. If you believe your case is stranger than fiction you should hear some of these. Everyday there are bosses willing to break the law for petty personal reasons or to save themselves a buck.<br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000080;\"><strong>Beware Superbowl Fans!<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\nShowing your team spirit Patriots Fans? Ever imagine it could get you fired? J. C. Stone was going about his job like any other salesman at the Chevy dealership in a Chicago suburb when he was told to remove his Greenbay Packers themed tie. Assuming that his supervisor was just giving him a hard time because his team had recently beat the local Bears out of the playoffs, Stone went about his day. Unfortunately he was mistaken after being told to remove it again he actually refused stating it was a gift from his deceased Grandmother. He was fired for the refusal, but a local radio station picked up his wrongful termination story and he had a new job in no time, while his boss got nothing but a lot of BAD PRESS.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000080;\"><strong>Abby&#8217;s Choice: Her Job or Her Baby.<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\nA large majority of us have worked in the service industry, and most would admit that having the &#8220;right look&#8221; can mean bigger and better tips. But what if you were told outright to lose weight to keep your job. Abigail Shomo was told to lose her baby! According to her suit her employer gave her an ultimatum when they learned she was with child: get rid of the pregnancy or give up your job. Hard to believe such blatant disregard for right and wrong still runs rampant in the workplace today.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000080;\"><strong>Orthodox Jewish Sexy Underwear?<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\nDo middle-age rabbi in wool and ringlets make you think sexy separates for valentines day? Probably not, but that is exactly who owned the hot lingerie company where Lauren Odes was employed. Ms. Odes on the other hand was attractive and curvy, exactly what you might expect at an underwear company&#8217;s reception desk. Shockingly Lauren was fired, in her word for dressing too sexy. She filed suit claiming sexual discrimination.<\/p>\n<p><strong>If your case is this cut and dry or a lot more complicated we have the knowledge and the tools to help you fight back.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Contact Us: Free Consultation\" href=\"https:\/\/www.paymeovertime.com\/contact\/\"><strong>Call United Employees Law Group for your personal free case review.
