⚠ Have I convinced you to keep notes on the bad behavior you see at work? ⚠

Whats terrible is you don’t think to make notes of things when they first start . Especially when you’re just trying to work and go home not cause problems

Always remember the HR Department is never on your side. They are there to protect the Company, not you. Even though they write a policy manual about violating civil labor laws and to report to them immediatally. This is why you take notes with dates.

Trust no one at work ever in my opinion

OMG! I've always wondered exactly how you were supposed to take notes so that they'd mean anything. Everyone is like 'start documenting' but never say how and why. I appreciate this greatly. Thank you

What is horrible is that someone can be a horrible person, break no laws and you have to suck it up.

Having a "work diary" is absolutely imperative.

I have two narcissists in my life who try to use documenting me that I display bad behavior . When I educated myself I realized that all they were doing was trying to manipulate and control me so they could get their supply. There are co workers out there that will use this type of action against their target.

With repeated incidents of harassment, noting everything that was said, even just the important things in short hand, can quickly cause your notes to become a book that NO ONE wants to read

I'm a salaried employee with a generous bonus structure. I work exactly 47.5 hours a week and only work over if I want to. I usually do so when I want to get work done without the constant distraction of managing people. It keeps my stress levels down, and keeps me from being short/mean/rude with employees. I like to watch these videos to help inform myself of what not to do. I have a degree in business management, but there's always something new to learn or reinforce.

I feel that if you're watching this for your own emploment situation as a guide of what to do, it already too late. Your place of employment has proven to be toxic in some way and you might want to be working on making a transition to somewhere else.

Just want to say, I just binged a few of your videos and I'm sure you are a great lawyer, but you must be a teacher as well. Your presentation and videos are really well written, comprehensive and engaging.

I truly appreciate your videos. Your videos have absolutely helped my son with a terrible inhumane situation he had to endure while working at Amazon.

I have the notes, documents, and text messages. Pervasive abuse over the last seven years and informed my leader of the abuse. HR also has gone. I quit abruptly today. Contacted an attorney and they wanted to hear nothing of it. I find it hard to find anyone who wants to take an employment case.

You are a lawyer who truly cares about people. Your advice is wonderful for people to protect their jobs. Many lawyers out there would only care after they see a viable case.

Sending notes to a lawyer at the start of problems is a good idea. Your lawyer may help you avoid a complicated situation or help you navigate through it with proper context. If you're at a stage where you're panicking, it will be hard for the lawyer to get up to speed and help you.

Wished I had found your channel earlier as I am sure as many here. Never had any interactions with the HR department of any company other than hiring or benefit questions until recently. Had I known the sacrifice I made signing a severance document, I certainly would have done things differently. Excellent breakdown of the processes of an HR department. Very insightful.

This is what I learned. If you initially send an email to your superior and they verbally communicate an answer because they like to switch things down the road and want nothing in writing then is best to send them a follow up about the conversation for your records.

Even if notes aren’t admissible, they help to keep events and timelines clear. I’m terrible remembering dates but if you have notes you can be very clear about what happened and when
