I’m dealing with it right now. The worst part is somehow I feel like I’m in the wrong for speaking out about it.

I been at my job for 20 years. Numerous times I have seen discrimination towards myself. In 2015 I was caught using my cell phone out on the floor witch I admit it was wrong.I had no choice using my phone since management did not have someone relieve me for my break . So I caught using the phone and the supervisor takes me to the office. I thought I was going to get written up or maybe get suspended but management decided to fire me ! My union rep filed a grievance for wrongful termination and after being away fired for one whole year, the union got me my job back and received back pay.

They don’t fire you ! They put you in closet until you leave on your own !

Your videos are just damn excellent. I hope you never stop putting in the effort you do to educate employees in California of their rights in the workplace.

The worst part is if you are discriminated by verbal communication or body language, then you can't really proof your case.

Some bosses just like feeling and engaging in that power trip, knowing your just an employee, straight up, them folks feel out of place when they don’t feel that power.

Great video. However, most companies usually start a paper trail against the complaining employee by starting to claim that their productivity, work quality, etc. are not declining, worsening, "insert any negative commentary". Companies do this to establish a defense for firing an employee with legitimate complaints. This is something I've seen in every single company I've been with. What does a person do in this kind of situation?

I am facing the results of having stood up against racial discrimination at work. I was a contractor in a fortune 100 company. I got laid off as soon as I reported the manager for being discriminative towards me. And then my employer just washed their hands off me. The recruiting agency is a Fortune 500 company and talks about diversity and inclusion. Such a hog wash! It has been 1.5 months now and my recruiter still tells me that he is unable to find any roles that match my profile. I am in tech for gudness sake!!

what if HR is the one doing the discrimination?

[JimmyJaxJellyStax]

There's quiet quitting that's often just a healthy response to a quiet firing prior.
No question the execs have some off-the-record awareness of who to nudge away from the company.

Thank you for this, although I live in Illinois, I had to quit because of the harassment. I for sure have a case. Thank you! ❤

What happens when you’ve contacted every lawyer in the google search list and they all tell you the same thing “we can’t take your case because our case load is to full” and I have right to sue letter from the eeoc but only hard thing about my race discrimination case against target is that I can’t find a contingency lawyer or lawyer to fight for me this is a cold world. Your videos help me throughout my whole case

I'm the only black or person of color at my company besides a key player that doesn't work infield. It's gotten so out of hand that even when business partners come to our office. I'm without shame referred to as... Oh, that's nobody but "The Help, " in the back (and I have the same title as them) or and without shame make racist comments- Black dog, pet, little helper, the companies pet. I've listened to you're videos in the attempt to know how to handle this. I spoken with the head person in charge and there's been no change. I'm amazed that racism still exist on this level. And I'm praying for anyone on here who's dealing this as I can attest this is very painful but I'm praying for change in the hearts of people.

I'm dealing with discrimination and nepotism in the workplace right now. it sucks. its a small company and all the new hires are commissioners family/friends and our office manager is friends with commissioner too. I'm afraid as soon as I file a complaint will be retaliated against. I have one boss (who the problem is) and his boss is the commissioner (who wants his people in and are now in the process of being hired). there is so much shit that goes on, not with just me but people who put applications in for past job openings (who actually have experience in the field) that didn't get the job because they give it to their family and friends. then the bosses soon to be SIL who has only been here 3 yrs has gotten $7, 000 in raises and I have the same certifications as him and I've been here 7 years longer than him.
