October 21, 200519 yr 100% bullshit. Funny but a load of crap. #1) Never heard of that law 2) SInce he resigned should he access any of those files that would be a violation of the law, furthermore if he made personal copies of institution files that clearly (i'd bet money on it) violate his contract with the school for his job. 3) about the only factual thing on here And blackmail usually never works. Unless you're the BOFH and can put people in the hospital, dont piss off the people who put their john hancock on your paycheck and/or letter of reccommendation.
October 21, 200519 yr I once wrote a similair (but less threatening) letter to an employer. It was something like this: ******* " This is my resignation letter dated blah blah blah. I'm going to work for New President Hotel, your #1 competitor. As you wouldn't give me a new contract, and the one I was employed under expired 4 months ago, I'm no longer required to give 4 weeks notice, just 2 (Employee contracts act 1992 or something). My job description still legally applies though, under the Employment Contracts Act. My original contract and job description were to perform the regular duties of a waiter, serving tables, greeting customers, operating the till etc. It is legal for me to refuse to do any duties not listed in my job description without a new contract, and a new contract requires me receiving four weeks notice of a change of duties. For the next two weeks until my notice period expires, these will be the duties I perform, so I suggest you very quickly hire a new dishwasher, new chef and new barman for the evenings. Perhaps a manager to do the accounting and stock control/ordering would be of use too. My job description also listed my hours as being a minimum of 30 hours per week. It is legal for you to expect me to do overtime, but not more than 40 hours total per week. YAY! No more 65 hour weeks for me! You had better hire another waiter too I suppose. My salary of $8.50 an hour is barely acceptable for a waiter, but the work and overtime I've been doing deserve somewhere in the area of $15 an hour minimum, with overtime rates for every hour over 40 per week, and double pay for hours worked on public holidays. You've had it pretty good with me, so be grateful I'm not taking you to court for unpaid wages and employee exploitation. I require only two things to make me forget all the horrible things you have done to me. An excellent reference that lists ALL duties I performed here, and the manager's name and phone number as being the following: [My friend], [his number]. The other requirement is to be paid my holiday pay at the rate I previously requested (above). At 6%, that comes to $1872.00. None of this would have happened if my request for a payrise to the above wage had been approved. Instead, the insulting and demeaning laughter I received left me feeling degraded and insulted. I'm considering whether to seek compensation for this. It has injured my self esteem greatly. I look forward to your response. I will arrive at 9:00am, my scheduled time, tomorrow morning. You'rs truly for two more weeks, Blah blah (my name). ****** They refused, I called a lawyer, three letters were sent back and forth, they paid me $2000. The lawyer took $650. I reported them to the employment rights commission in the mean time. They renamed the restaurant and hired a crew of five staff members.
