sux man, you could get unemployment or sue their pants off
plenty of witnesses to say you kept your cool, right? even if you dont want to sue call the manager and say "uh, hi i just got of the phone with a lawyer... can i come in ant talk to you?" and the bluff should work

Sounds like you were better off leaving and getting a job you like man,that sucks ass though ,I'd wait for daddy's boy to get off work and do some rearranging of his face

Jobs around here are stiff.... its incredibly hard to get even entry level work.... everyone I talk to that came and went at various jobs all said the same thing... and even my friends... (been 2-3 months to get a job).... and my rents due on the 1st... and I just pray my checks big enough to cover it..... I'm pretty much fucked.... and word on my balls I never did anything man.

Well that is bs for sure but let me give you a peice of advice...never tell anyone to hit you. I did it once in school and got hit lol. The first one to swing usually wins. The thing is I did it because I was in truancy court and couldn't miss any more school, this cocksucker drove us miles away for lunch and we went and ate lunch and came back and he said we smelled like weed or we had weed on us or some shit and wouldn't let us in his truck and we both missed school for the rest of the day. The next day I was eyeballing him in the hallway and he was like what and I was like you know what mother fucker you fuckin left us yesterday and apparently he goes into class that we have together laughin it up how he ditched us. Well yeah I told him I was in truancy court and couldn't miss any more school and that it was fucked up I'd beat your ass if I wouldn't get suspended. He starts talkin shit and i was like hit me mofo and he did I got a big ass shiner and we started fighting and I still fuckin get suspended for fighting after I tell them all this bullshit and how he hit me first it was self defense. Plus everybodies like you got your ass kicked it's like go fuck yourself! Anyways just wanted to say that, just stand your ground and be prepared for them to swing and than knock em out epic beard man style.
It's definately a conflict of interest in your situation because the kid's dad is the boss so you know your going to be the one leaving no matter what. I don't know if you would actually have a case against them for wrongful release because they can just say you caused a hostile environment or that you threatened his son. Also I think that they have the right to dismiss you for any reason at any time as long as it isn't based on your religion or ethnicity or sexual orientatation or something. Sounds like that place sucked anyways, of all the jobs I ever had, there was probably only one where I didn't get along with my coworkers and i didn't stay long. Maybe you'll get a better pating job, I have lost my job a few times only to find a better job soon after. Good luck

IMO it is just easier and more beneficial for you to move on.
You sound like your in the right, but is everyone else willing to lose their jobs to have your back?
If I know people, I know most will suit their needs over your own. If jobs are tight they will not risk theirs.
Sounds like a crappy place to work, most family run environments are tough to be in, it is always a he said she said thing
and for the most part the trust is put into the family member and not an "outsider".
Take care, and I wish you the best.

Plenty of lawyers would take this case with no money unless they win you a lump.
Google it localy.

It says here, and the law is province specific... this is the law in my province:
Reasonable Notice
Employers are free to terminate the employment of any employee for any reason, provided the reason does not contravene the Human Rights, Citizenship and Multiculturalism Act. The ESC provides, however, that adequate notice, or equivalent pay in lieu of notice, must be given to the employee when termination is about to occur. This is intended to provide some security, by allowing the employee to make plans for alternative employment.
Cause An exception to the "adequate notice" provision of the ESC may be made if the employer has "cause" to terminate employment, including:
- Dishonesty or theft
- Neglect of duty
- Gross incompetence
- Lack of performance
%0% The onus for providing cause is on the employer.
I never did any of those things, nothing. If anything this guy should be the one getting fired for verbally attacking me for nothing. They never gave me any written warning, no pay in lieu, no nothing... He said he had "just cause" which is because other employees told him I was instigating a fight, which ISNT TRUE!!!!! fuck.

I feel for ya, man. The problem is, he who has the money, gets to bypass the rules. They most definately had no cause to fire you. But without money and an attorney, how can you prove that? What's to stop them from magically writing in times you neglected your duty? Coming up with stories about how negligent you were? I would file unemployment, and get to putting in applications ASAP. If it makes you feel any better - here, there is no law providing any warning or pay if you're to be fired. They have what's called a hire at will, fire at will policy. Meaning they can fire your ass for no reason, no warning required.
