| Oct 8, 2012 at 21:10 | comment | added | IDrinkandIKnowThings | @jmort253 - There is some common(maybe uncommon) knowledge that goes around operating in the world. One of these is a basic understanding of laws and rights. Many of us learn them the hard way. So long as the question is not asking for someone to take legal action you can ask about what a person can expect when they are fired. Generally businesses will try to operate on the right side of the law. Many times people expect protections that are not really there. When there is something fishy we can advise to talk with a lawyer. | |
| Oct 2, 2012 at 4:45 | comment | added | jmort253 | I'm on the fence on this one. Legal questions are always sort of iffy in my opinion. When you ask a question like this, you're getting opinions from random people on the Internet. Being an expert in navigating the workplace setting is much different than being an expert in New York employment laws... | |
| Oct 1, 2012 at 14:06 | comment | added | bethlakshmi | I actually liked this in that instead of whining about injustice, the question was focused on actual actions and expectations for a situation that probably isn't unique to this individual. | |
| Oct 1, 2012 at 11:47 | comment | added | maple_shaft | @enderland Anybody that takes explicit legal advice from the internet deserves severe legal implications IMHO. Most of us do a good job of calling out bad advice or specifically local advice. | |
| Sep 28, 2012 at 22:07 | comment | added | enderland | I'm wary about these sorts of questions because of the possible severe legal implications of someone coming here, trusting the site as definitive, and then totally screw themselves over because they are in a different country. There was talk of potentially having a country tag for these sorts of questions (also questions relating to protocol/etiquette as varies by country) | |
