$100 million class action suit













Just read the lawsuit. All I can say is BRAVO ladies.

Bravo? really? they should be congratulated for weak, selfish, childlike claims?

"The RD says hi to other reps but doesn't say hi to me?" - seriously??? THAT'S a claim!

not to mention outright lies:

"FEMALE reps have to dine with MALE doctors" screams the press release!! That's funny, reading the enitre suit I see no mention AT ALL of that in any of the six stories listed??? Whoops. I guess "forced to pay back money overpaid while on leave" isn't as sexy of a headline. Who cares if it's blatantly false. We're a lawfirm, we don't care if it's true or not...as long as it paints our client as victims.

Honestly, these people should all be embarassed of themselves but they obviously lack a moral compass.

You have no idea what you are talking about. You were not at the meeting, I was at the meeting and have to admit I was shocked by the RDs actions. It was a shun.

As for the $ to be paid back I don't know much about it, but I have talked to reps who had no warning this would happen, especially after they verify with HR on leave to make sure the payments that they are recieving is correct. There is not a steady stream of income that comes in during leave so its hard to tell what you are getting paid and when. I have experienced HR mistakes myself so I'm not surprised.

If you don't know what's going on with these women don't judge.

Ohhhhh, please forgive me...I didn't realize it was a "shun"......??????? WTF???


If you are taking a leave, isn't it your responsibility to be aware of the terms?


I notice you choose not to comment on the dining with doctors portion of the suit? Why?


You ask me not to judge?....oh how I wish I could.
 






The thing that saddens me the most is that there are situations out there where disrcimination does take place. Real situations where real hardship occurs for the victims. Frivolous cases about being subjected to "smoky meetings" or "denied territory transfers" creates an atmosphere where true victims lose some sympathy because it sounds like another blatant money grab like this suit. There are no winners here...all losers.

I DO know these woman and they are giving hatd working mothers like me a bad name. These girls are well known slackers and I hope to got this goes to court because they wont stand a chance. The whole California coast is against them
 






I walked out of an office today and thought about the call I made. I was just then when I thought to myself, "I wish I flew helicopters, because that would have allowed me to make a better call"

Why this company doesn't recognize such experience is beyond me

Great post call analysis Einstein, how you don't have a holiday in your honor yet is one of life's true mysteries.
 


















And let's not forget these wonderful mind melting area meetings coming up where the propaganda and phoniness will be in copious abundance. More wasted money and time again and again and again.
 






can someone please explain to me the logic in complaining about low wages?

What happens during an interview? The company meets a possible hire and explains the role. The hire then reviews their background and experience. The two parties than have to determine if there's a fit.

If the company is interested, it can offer you a salary for your efforts at what it thinks you are worth. The individual can hear that number and decide if it is enough for them and accept or refuse the amount.

If they offered $20,000....you'd probably refuse it
if they offered $40,000....you'd probably refuse it

They offered $65,000......you accepted it.

Now four years later you decide that it wasn't enough and you'd like more money?


Suppose the company reviewed your last four years of employment and decided they didn't get the return on their investment and they'd like you to pay back some of your salary? They'd like to pay you less now.

How is either case different?


Point is: Regardless of what anyone else is getting paid or not, you were presented a salary to accept or decline. You accepted it. How dare you think you are entitled to anything else after the fact!

Do you know ALL of the women in the case?? If so you would know not ALL are slackers! In fact, it's the very opposite for some as I know them too and they are very hard workers - the couple that I know anyway!

You can be a hard worker and still be misguided. Have you read this thread? there's countless points based in fact to point out the flaws in this suit. The only opposing viewpoint is" you weren't there, you don't know"

Lets keep it facts people.

I never went to college, but I think this "thread" touches very little on anything based in fact, and for good reason. The plaintiffs aren't going to play their trump cards until the trial, and defendants are notorious for denying everything so there you have it.

So the complete filing, of which all of the debated points here where taken from, touches little or anything based in fact? Yet a law firm can slap a $100 million lawsuit with such claims and send out a damaging press release to cause bad publicity and harm to a company's reputation? Interesting.
