My dear fellow GC seekers,
I have been under enormous pressure working under my current boss and I have been growing extremely unpatient with him right now. I want to take some action against him and greatly appreciate any suggestion from fellows.
My I485 was approved last month. PP is done, but haven't received the real GC yet.
The problem with my boss is that: on various occasions, he made racial remarks to me and my fellow workers from same nationals. Once he asked me to another VP's office and ask that VP such questions as : "Is xxx people smarter or Jewish people?" "Who earn more money, xxx people or Jewish people?" (my boss is a Jewish). And in other case, he shouted to one female worker "I will kill you". "You are full-time employee and you have 24 hours everyday, so you don't get paid for overtime and you have to work overtime."......
There are a lot such incidents and for obvious reasons, our foreigners didn't react the way we should just for the GCs! One of my country fellow was fired after some issue with my boss and now the other is gone. Now that my I485 is approved and we are thinking to take some legal civil action against the company but all these racial remarks haven't been recorded even if they are heard by many people. Here is my thinking and some concerns:
1. If we file a civil lawsuit against the company, do we present a strong case? We have couple former employees will testify, but who knows the other white people will do what? I guess they will keep silent or worse yet, maybe they will make some false testify against us?
2. The company on various occasions encourage employees to install pirate software even after we warn them that these software are illegal but they still ask us to do so and they even sent email to ask us to do so. The email evidence is kept and this is hard evidence. Can we combine this software issue with our civil lawsuit?
3. What is the implication with my GCs because someone said I have to wait 180 days (6 months) otherwise my employer can revoke my GCs? Is there any legal means that I can fight through this if we did file a civil lawsuit against the company?
4. This is a small company with assets estimated at less than 10 million. If we file such a civil lawsuit, how much benefits we can expect? Is it really worth us to do so? We really can't tolerate this bad boss, so we hope we can do something.
5. We have some other hard evidences against company such as they cheat customers on various ways. Do these side evidence help our cases?
6. The company is/was having about 4 legal issues with former employee, former exuctives, adding one more will that help us?
7. Finally, any one know of good lawyer for this kind of law suit, we greatly appreciate your information. Please let us know his contact information. We are in Philadelphia, Central New Jersey area, so any lawyer from this region is good.
Thanks everyone and greatly appreciate your suggestions!!
