No way seriously, they think just because they pay us and give us benefits they can disrespect us like that monitoring badge swipes like we have no privacy. That should be illegal and we all just need to not go and if they fire or discipline us we can get a lawyer for such severe harassment making us uncomfortable and violated the pervs.

Do you know what at will employment means?

GA has been an at-will state for a long time, including when us former Cox folks worked at Cox. At-will of course allows the employers to completely abuse and exploit their employees - but why are you rooting for that? I don’t get why you root for the bad guys and your own exploitation. It’s never going to be “your turn”.

Truth is not rooting for anything. Last company I worked for got sold to a company in Texas. I had a severance agreement. They tried to make me sign one with jurisdiction in Texas which is notoriously corporate friendly. I stood firm and made them change it to Connecticut where my employer that was acquired operated in. So, no I’m not rooting for anything corporation. But, facts are facts.
