I got a lawyer...

[Tonya]

Well, I finally did it. I think. I got the nerve to grab the best gender discrimination/sexual harrassment lawyer that I could find. I was in tears by the time I got off the phone with the paralegal, so I am not even sure if I have the nerve to go through with this...Anyways, I see him on Monday. He wants me to bring in all the documentation that day.

If you don't know what this is all about, there are quite a bit of threads on the drama I go through at work. I'd pretty much quit complaining to you all, but it's pretty nasty there. I am the only woman and I am treated horribly.

On the brighter side...check out my other thread. I have good news too! *I think*

Congratulations! That's a big step. It won't be easy, but it's important to stand up for what's right.

I'm being abused at work by a woman attorney. I've talked to management about it; they know she's abusive and creating a "hostile work environment" (their words, not mine), but because the attorneys think she's a good attorney I know nothing will be done about it.

That's to bad! That would be a tough one, being abused by a lawyer...Her attitude is what are you going to do, sue her?

Good for you for calling a lawyer in! I wasn't on PT when your problems started, but I went back and read about some of it. I hope you get this guy good. He sounds like a real scumbag.

Yay! Good for you!!!! Proud of ya - no one, male or female, deserves the treatment you've gotten.

Glad for both things . I sure won't have waited so long but glad your going after the a---ole . Maybe he'll learn about being a jerk.

I'm proud of you, Tonya! Nobody should have to go through the crap you have been through with that dirtbag! GET HIM!

I had that at my last job. This lying, two-faced destroyer of working relations was kept 'because she was intelligent'. I explained that intelligent people don't hide behind deception and aggression - but of course, lost that battle

Tonya, go for it! If you ever doubt your actions, go back through some of your threads here and revisit how awful he made you feel. Good luck.
