My employer didn't wait the 180 days. They got right down to business. I didn't make it through my 90 day probation.<br /> One thing you didn't address though is that some of us are to poor to fight a big company. Lawyers want money! They don't have time for private enterprise unfair practices. Only carwrecks!This is why the high courts do not understand. Thank you, I wish you were here to help me fight.

- Now the high court justices and the congress must fully understand the “real life” and “practicality of application” of the 180 day limit. When an employee starts a new job and soon finds out he/she is paid lower salary than other similarly situated employees of different sex/race/origin, the new employee is afraid of creating any waves or filing any discrimination complaint (for fear of loosing the job).

- NOT DOING SO WILL ONLY SEND A MESSAGE TO ALL PRIVATE AND PUBLIC EMPLOYERS TO PUT A “GUN TO THE HEAD” OF SUCH EMPLYEES FOR FIRST 180 DAYS AND KEEP THEIR MOUTH SHUT AND THEN, MAKE MILLIONS OF SUCH EMPLOYEES “LEGALLY SUFFER” FOR REST OF THEIR LIFE OR CAREER FOR DECADES IN THE SAME WAY AS “THE SLAVES ON SHIPS WHO WERE WHIPED/ WHIPED/WHIPED…. UNTIL THEY DIED OR ESCAPED” — Now with Democrates in Power, GHANGE THE LAW if necessary —
