Can I Sue an Employer if They Fire Me After I Left Another Job to Take This Job?
I was recently laid off from a job that I accepted only 16 weeks ago. I left a job paying significantly more for this opportunity. The basis of my acceptance of the position was a viable product, stable company (single investor owned) and product acceptance. Based on my interview with the CEO and Senior Vice President they indicated this was so. Additionally I was promised in my letter of acceptance a commission plan. The reality on October 5 the company laid off 30% of the company, the product is not yet developed, the payer market is not ready for this product and I never received a commission plan. The severance I was offered was one week and my health coverage until the end of the month. Do I have a case based on detrimental reliance of my decision based on the facts presented during the interview process?

How Does a Federal Employee File a Discrimination Complaint?
I'm a USPS University employee that has received an prejudicial & unfair annual evaluation this week. My supervisor has accused me of several infractions that I have no knowledge of, however the blame has been placed on me anyway. This has all been written on my evaluation deeming me an inept, horrible & untrustworthy employee! Just last year I had a remarkable evaluation. Another manager in the department has been interfering between me and my supervisor for many months and is the root of the wrongful evaluation received this past week. Personal slanderous remarks have also been written. I have reported the incidents to Hr for quite some time, but they have proven to be no help. My position has now been reassigned to work for the undermining manager that has made no bones about disliking me. I have been accused and verbally disciplined in front of others. I'm harassed about too many things to count, nit-picking everything I do. the treatment of me and rules for me are different from everyone else's in the College. I have dealt with the discrimination of being singled out, harassment, wrongful discipline, defamation of character, and now the scarring of my career with this recent evaluation. This evaluation will permanently mark my career. I was told to file my complaints with the US Dept of Labor and they would assist me with legal representation. Is this true and if not, what can I do? I'm at my wits end and can't find a link on the usdol.com website that offers the proper information. My funds are very limited and I fear losing my job after 20 years with the FL USPS system.
