Dose a spouse have the right to speak to your employeer about your misstreatment?

[lmtharle88]

I work at a local fast food chain. Friday my boss, we'll call him Joe made two mistakes back to back on my register and then proceeded to scream at me for it and say I should have stopped him before he finished the sale. When he did that my back was turned.

He continued yelling at me and blaming both mistakes on me and sent me home. When my husband can to get me and found out the situation he went to ask my boss not why I was sent home but why I was being screamed at. The whole time my husband remained very calm never yelling or raising his voice, my boss yelled at him saying I don't have to speak to you.

That Sunday Joe comes in and tells me he called the police as soon as my husband came in Friday (before they even spoke) and if he comes in again he'll have him arrested and charged with trespassing. I asked why and if my husband ever yelled, raised his voice, threatened, or became vulgar Friday and my boss told me that doesn't matter and he doesn't have to answer.

As my husband doesn't he have the right to speak up for me or on my behave about mistreatment or concerns as long as he conducts himself properly.

Your husband does not have the inherent right to be anywhere he's not wanted - if your boss doesn't want him at your place of work, he can indeed bar him from the property.

Your boss is in the right here, legally speaking.

Your husband has no legal standing to involve himself in your employment.

Certainly understandable why your husband would want to take up for you but as the others have said he had no right. Its where you work not him. Your boss should learn how to speak to people but your hubby getting involved could make things much worse for you.

Agreed - I can actually see her employment being terminated very shortly, too, based upon the actions of her husband.
