Find answers to your legal question.





my boss terminated my position at work yesterday while he was drunk?

my boss is a bad alcoholic, he drinks on the job, cuts hours from all the employees, when we work more then he pays us for. he also sometimes makes us work with no lunch then still takes it out of our checks, worst of all its an auto repair shop! he drives not only his own car drunk, but also drives customers cars drunk, what should i do? i feel like a lot of the stuff that has go on their is illegal and my co-workers have been wronged.


    




don't need wings to fly
um... sue him in courtduh. and it'd be nice to have the extra cash

2 words SUE HIM!!!!!!!!!!!!

First, your boss is violating federal employment laws.

Second, your boss is violating local and state statutes by driving drunk.

Third, he sounds like an a$s.

Turn his butt in to the authorities.

Start locally with the Better Business Bureau.
Then go to the state, and make a complaint with the Labor Departement.
And let's not forget you need to bring this up to the the unemployment dept. I'm sure all these places will love to hear about this guy.

you should probably report him to the city or someone and can probably sue him if you want for not paying his employees what is in their contract. if i were you i would report him because he is endangering many people and he is wronging you as well as your employees as you said.

Does he have a boss? Go to that person. Go to the unemployment office and talk to them. I live in Colorado and I know there is a law here that all employees are entitled to 1 30minute uninterrupted "lunch break". You are required to be paid for every minute you work unless you are salaried, in which case there are different rules. You have rights as a worker and your rights were violated. Take a stand and report him.

Call the police and have him investigated. If it is a major chain autoshop like Goodyear, Valvoline, etc... call coorporate and talk to them on an annonymous help line.

You sound like you are upset because you got fired.

Be glad and find another job.

Hmm, well honestly do you want to work for some one like this. He seems like hes on the verge of coming to work one day with a hand gun and well you know....going postal on his workers!

On a legal base, what reason were you terminated on the grounds of? He has to provide a reason or you maybe have a suit against him. You may have a good case and may not. Depends on why he terminated you.


cmoosecan
do something about it !! report him !!! why did he sack you ?


zachary hunt
FREAKIN' TURN HIM IN! why is he driving his CUSTOMERS' cars DRUNK??? thats unlawful, and he does not have any self respect....obviously....or for others.

fight this!

look like hes going to fail

Move on. You're far far better off not working for a man like that.

if you were paid incorrectly and the employer does not correct it you file a wage claim with your state's department of labor.........

most states do not require breaks be given so the answer to that part of the question will depend on where you are.
if your state requires a break to be given then the department of labor is where you report that violation.........

nothing you can do about the other issues unless you feel comfortable talking to him about his drinking problem and encouraging him to get help............
