Today, I got my new work schedule. I really need the hours. The boss says he can't give me more because the economy is bad. However, he did find enough hours to hire his son last week. This week? Most of my hours were erased and given to the new employee; his daughter. FML

So you want HER to sleep with his DAUGHTER? Messed up little people -.-

be better at your job. maybe you could be working instead of bitching. or news flash, quit. I'm sure nowhere else will hire you, but then we don't have to listen to you whine

So you know the economy is bad and his kids need jobs, and yet you still expect that he will screw over his own children to benefit you and give you the hours instead? Wtf kind of logic is that? What makes you be surprise that he picked his children over you??? Try to pull your head out of the FML whining wagon, and think of it: If you had kids having trouble in the current economy, would you help them, or a perfect stranger you have no reason to care for?? Can you think of anyone in the world who would chose some random person over their own kids?? If your parents have a company, go see them instead... FYL if you lived to the age you did without understanding how society and life works at such a basic level.

You can't sue for nepotism, morons. At least not in just about any situation. And if it's a family company, it's 100% normal for him to do what he's doing. Hell, even if it's not, as long as he's not pushing OP off due to racism or any of the other legally sanctioned reasons, it's still legal. He has the right to chose an employe over another. It happens EVERY DAY, everywhere kiddies. Wake up and smell the coffee. Favoritism exists and it sucks, but is not illegal at all.

Ain't nepotism grand? Don't wanna hearing nothing about no silly meritocracy.

Nepotism may not be illegal, but cutting your hours so the boss' children have more hours may be discrimination and worth a call to the EEOC.
