What do I do? Am I being discriminated against?

I work for a company in Arizona. I work in the kitchen with a boss who hardly ever enforces punishment. One of the people I work with in the kitchen is the daughter of someone who is in administration in the building. She is always calling off, coming in late, not working when she is clocked in. In fact just a few nights ago she came in and threw a FIT and left the kitchen for about an hour, completely throwing us off course, by the way I work for a retirement home where the residents are supposed to be fed and set times based on federal and state laws. This goes on constantly, and the boss always says " she is just going threw probelms outside of work" I have worked there for like 8 months and its been going on for as long as i can remeber. in fact i have actually say " Well my mom has more authority then Terri(the kitchen supervisor) does, so i have nothing to worry about

i dont see how YOU are being discriminated against
talk to your mom then if it bothers you so much.
this really is a stupid question.


Loved by some, hated by most!
Nope you are not being discriminated against. Just if they ever have a go at you for doing something she does say that you have "problems outside of work causing you to be like it" and then technically they cannot do anything because if they don't treat you the same you can then bring up equal opportunities and treating everyone the same no matter if they know someone in the company or not.

I cant see any particular act of discrimination there.
But there is nepotism rife!
which means that this girl is being given preferential treatment but as far as i can se there is no actual act of discrimination against you.
It all sounds very frustrating though.
look for another job, you will never be happy there.
