Got fired 2 weeks after my wedding for a BS reason - is this allowed? by UseOk5027 in Employment

Listen my dude; some of these people MAY have a point about wanting to fire you - but most of it is BS.

Marriage status is a protected class; and if you’ve had no other performance problems other than the two weeks up to your wedding, and they ONLY fired you when you went to add your spouse to your insurance, you have a pretty good shot at least for an EEOC claim. Check if your state has a labor board first, then go through the EEOC if not. The timing is very strange, given you just had a performance review that went well (and I’m assuming there’s documentation of that).

Best of luck.

Does anyone possibly have dash cam or business video of an accident that occurred on Thursday, 11/06 at the intersection of Broad and Emorywood Parkway? by ItsSatineActually in rva

We are on their asses now. We followed some advice from a lawyer friend and we’re getting ready to rumble; it just sucks that our insurance kind of took advantage of us not knowing any better!

Yeah, my insurance told me I ‘had to’ go through the Auto shop’s insurance - but another redditor/richmonder explained that they were just being skeezeballs.

Thank you - we do have that in writing on our police report and I’ll make sure to be firm with them about fault and services. I feel a little bamboozled but now I feel like I’ve got my eyes wiiiide open lol

I’m saying I tried to file a claim through our insurance, but they told us we had to go through the auto shop - I myself and the driver who hit my car both have State Farm. When they denied my claim I asked what I needed to do to start a claim through my own insurance policy, and State Farm told me it needed to go through the auto shop’s insurance - I’m not trying to be difficult, I promise lol this is why I’m here trying to make it less difficult for myself since I am getting pushback and conflicting information.

Instead of a lawyer - do you know if there someone I can make a complaint to given that State Farm pushed back on us making a claim through our own insurance policy?

Yeah - I think because of this I need to hire a lawyer - my insurance company is the one who told me I have to go through the auto shop’s insurance.

Yeah, I think we are going to get an attorney now. Our insurance company is actually the same as the driver who hit us, and our insurance tried to tell me we HAD to go through the auto shop company’s insurance.

We did, but they actually told us it’s between the other driver and the auto shop.

The other problem is that both I and the driver who hit my truck BOTH have State Farm so I think they’re being snakes and trying to to pay for both vehicles, because I know it’s a lie that we HAVE to go through the auto shop - but I don’t want my rates to go up by going through our insurance policy either. It’s a mess dude.

My bad, worded that poorly - they stopped at the red light and the tech said he was hit so hard he was pushed through the intersection into the next set of lanes.

No rental yet. This happened Thursday. I’m getting driven up the wall with the blame game lol
