His company was using 'big hands' or 'little hands' as code that the job was only for one gender dispite it being illegal to discriminate. He dobbed them in and was fired but it turned out every other company did the same thing and he couldnt be hired anywhere.

quote:

It's a privately held company.

Doesn't matter anyway, because I was resigned. Wait a minute, how can I be resigned?

Well, that's what they told me moments before I was escorted out. I wasn't being terminated, but they were considering my leaving employment with them to be my resignation. I was told that "Maybe we're just not the best fit for you, or maybe you're just not the best fit for us." And as much as I wanted to, I didn't go nuts and threaten to contact the media or anything like that. I did however tell him that what this company is doing is wrong and that I know he knows I made a complaint to the EEOC, and that I've instructed the candidates who were not hired based on that criteria to file as well. At that point he then denied ever knowing anything, despite the fact that close to two dozen e-mails I have go directly to him and have been sent from all over the region, including directly from his office. I didn't fight it any further, and I just left. It seemed smart not to say anymore than that. As I tried to leave he told me that he wouldn't contest my unemployment if I filed.

So what bastardly company is this?

I know I said i'd tell you, but since my smarter side has already won out once today, so I'm going to wait until after I talk to a lawyer to reveal that. Right now I have to call the EEOC and tell them all of this as well.

He posted in January of this year. So yeah probably dead.
