    I would have to see about a wrongful dismissal case. I believe it would be very strong, but I *just* finished a three-year court battle and am not really eager to start another one. I will though, if I can, because no one should be treated like that.

    things are quiet until hitler decides he'd like to invade russia
    so, he does
    the russians are like "OMG WTF D00DZ, STOP TKING"
    and the germans are still like "omg ph34r n00bz"
    the russians fall back, all the way to moscow
    and then they all begin h4xing, which brings on the russian winter
    the germans are like "wtf, h4x"
    -- WW2 for the l33t

    Go for it, I agree with "I will though, if I can, because no one should be treated like that.".

    So sorry for your loss, MN.

    Your (former) boss's boorish behavior into the bargain must have you a bit boxed just now.

    Sounds like a formula to fuel an effort to extract the pound of flesh you are due.

    Keep us apprised, please?
