Retaliation at work

[kimber62372]

I recently had to report someone at work for official misconduct behavior and she was suspended and I believe now she is terminated but they won't say she is "fired" just yet. She sent a retaliation letter to my job trying to get me fired. She's in deeper trouble now! Next on my list, to hire an attorney and bring the state in because there is also hostile work environment that stemmed from this but I am "suppose" to be anonymous and protected. This may get ugly but I am going to fight until the end! They messed with the wrong broad!

You go, girl!  Let them have it!

That's right, she shouldn't be doing that just because she got fired!!

I remember this situation. Wow! What an idiot. This just drives the point home that she had no business working there. She's petty and unprofessional.

Doesn't that come under the "victimization" banner? Once you have shared your evidence to the powers that be, you should then be protected by law and if not, you can claim some sort of victimization. I'm not a legal expert but I would certainly look into it. You are right, you should contact an attorney. Good luck!

That sounds like a low blow on the person who got let go and sent the letter.  People shouldn't have to get an attorney for every little thing.

Man.....all because people can't do what is right!

Seems like laws protect the guilty...

Are you part of a union?  If so, you need to contact them, & file a bunch of grievances.

Best of luck, hopefully your employer will stand behind you.  This could gt ugly and expensive.

Good luck! Hope it works out and doesn't cost you too much time and resources...

Makes me wonder WHO exactly it was that told the woman you reported that it was YOU.  Here you are doing the "right" thing and now you have to deal with the fall out?  What kind of BS is that?  If I remember correctly, didn't you say you spoke to one of the Judges about this?  Maybe you can go back to that Judge and ask his advice about all that's transpiring now (especially the work place hostility and the fact that this was supposed to be "anonymous").  Maybe that Judge can point you to a good attorney that you can "consult" with.  Consultations are usually "free," but some aren't!  I don't blame you for fighting, I would, too.  I wish you the best of luck.  Keep us posted.

You are RIGHT! He was the ONLY person I reported it to! I texted and called him (left a message) and he still has not gotten back to me. Either they forced it out of him or she is just "assuming" it was me. I have a feeling my employer is on her side. It's inappropriate to keep in contact with the person that was terminated until all this blows over and I know she is still very friendly with her on Facebook and my boss blocked me! So what does that tell you?? They are all going to be in a lot of trouble!
