I've been with my company sense April as an Assistant Manager, and I love my job very much. On August 22 my boss decided he was going to write me up for something I didn't do wrong and I even told him what I did before I left work that day, and he said that was fine. A week later at work I found from one of my employees and two managers of other companies, that my boss told them all he was pissed and writing me up. He never told me, then decided he wouldn't write me up cause what I did was exactly what he told me to do. So instead he tried punishing me by making me work three sundays a month from now on (which before hired i told him i could not work more than two.) When I brought up the write up and schedule, he got very mad and demanded my two weeks notice, when I said no, he said he would turn it in for me and he would work my sundays. I went over his head to his boss, and he freaked! last tuesday he told me he was giving me a week off tell our boss gets in for a meeting. So to cap: he tells everyone he is writing me up and does not tell me, he gives me days i can't work and takes me off the schedule for a full week. what do i do. Oh i'm in iowa, don't know if laws are different. OH! and to top off everything, he told the other employee that the second i turn in my two weeks, he isn't even going to let me finish them, he was going to fire me on the spot!

  1. You should perhaps ask yourself what you think you are worth?  Do you really what to waste any more time with a guy who treats you like this?  The legal route is expensive and unpleasant - rather think what will make your life better.


  2. You have not been working there long enough to be protected by any employee laws.   You can be let go at this point for any reason at all.

    It sounds like this is not a very good job match for you anyway.

  3. you should probably talk to a lawyer it would really help ur case if u found a reason why he was doing this that was in some way discriminatory
