The I-9 documentation (drivers license, SS Card, passport, whatever) must be witnessed directly by a company representative. But I don't know that the Feds are going to get bent out of shape if you sign it without a company witness.

I'm sorry - I didn't get the alert that I had been tagged. Is the situation resolved?

That depends on how it is said. It shouldn't be allowed to be a distraction in class but there are ways and ways of discouraging it.

I can think of no circumstances where it WOULD be appropriate for a teacher to ridicule a child. Is that really considered appropriate behavior for anyone to anyone?

A message board is not the proper place to be seeking help. Please contact a Maryland attorney who can review all the facts and documentation that are not available to us and which you should not post publicly.

And I think with that well-reasoned response, which frankly I think is more than the poster deserved for a post that is clearly baiting, we will close the discussion.

I have now watched the video. It is far from clear that there even was an assault, let alone which of the two unidentifiable figures was the aggressor. I am not at all surprised that the worker was acquitted on the basis of the video. As to the firing, I can only assume that there was something...

It seems to me that you don't have any idea what happened to the manager; you only know that he was not fired. There could have been any number of legal reasons for the difference in treatment and neither you nor your friend has any idea what transpired behind the scenes. If your question is...

I don't know if it is still the case because I no longer do this kind of work but it used to be that CA would be satisfied as long as, in a four week period, the employee had four full days off.

I'm sure PayrollDude will be surprised to learn that I have no problem with this decision.

You know, even honest to goodness pedophiles have "tastes". If he's "into" teenagers, the four and five year olds will be of no interest to him. If his arrest was for assault on a girl, a boy is not going to be on his radar. I am not in any way, shape or form defending him. I find preying on...

That was kind of my point too. Thanks for the corroboration.

Someone who was interested in a 16 year old at age 25, is not going to be going after children of 4 and 5. Or even 12.

how old are the children in question?

This does not constitute any form of illegal harassment under employment laws, sorry. Sometimes a bad manager is just a bad manager. You can, and should, report it to HR, but since it's just bad management and not illegal harassment, they may or may not take action. And it goes without saying...

Regardless of which country's laws are in play here, a website for general legal information cannot help you. This is not a website to procure representation, and none of us here make the laws. Best of luck to you.

You apply for unemployment in the state where you yourself did the work. The state the company was based is immaterial.

I agree that this appears to have been handled badly, but not illegally. Your recourse is to apply for unemployment and look for a new job.

Because you were there such a short time FMLA does not apply, so that kind of protection is off the table. How often does this kind of flare up happen? I'm not asking you to carve anything in stone, but on an average, how much time due to this condition would you likely miss in, say, a six...

Adoption is also an option and one that far too few people consider.
