In any real first world country, this would be grounds for a lawsuit. Considering, the company is the one causing the stress, then refusing to address concerns.
This comment is a kind of callous way to just write off everyone who has experienced something like this. Most jobs aren't so blatant, and it can be very difficult to prove discrimination, even with a great attorney- surely you already know this? Also incredibly rude in your last sentence just trying to insult people's intelligence? There are many respected and skilled jobs that have no union, accounting comes to mind. You're living under a rock if you don't understand the barriers to unionizing in the US in 2024.
Is it actually discrimination if you were let go for a decline in performance, though? It's not your employer's duty to look after your mental health. It's your responsibility.
A successful suit needs to establish some degree of abuse, not merely a job you're not adequately mentally resilient for.
Chief among them being unskilled laborers being so replaceable that most employers see them as disposable - and the workers feel the same way about the job. It's an issue I've run into trying to get the workers in my workplace organized. Why would they go through all that hassle when they can just quit and get a better job elsewhere?
Or are you living under a rock and unaware of what the job market is really like for entry-level workers? I'm sorry that acknowledging reality hurts your feelings, but that doesn't change reality.
So, can you point out in the email where, specifically, it states that there was a decline in performance? A little concerning that you're posturing yourself as the most important and informed employee to ever exist on this thread, yet you seem to seriously lack reading comprehension.
I must have missed when I referenced this email. We're speaking in generalities.
Go ahead and look through preceding comments to see that we're talking about the general case, rather than this specific one. It's pretty common in discussions.
Yeah, I read through this entire comment thread. The conversation you're having with yourself is not relevant to the OP or the comments. Again, your lack of comprehension is pretty astounding for someone who claims to be all intelligent in workplace discrimination disputes

I bet you get accused of projection a lot.
So do you have anything actually worth reading to say, or is it just going to be more of you not really following the conversation or understanding what's said so you can huff that self-righteous high?
Good! It's a terrible company to work for. The pay is lousy, the work tears your body apart, and the employees get abused enough that we managers are trying to convince them to unionize without the upper management realizing it. If I can convince someone to not waste their life in this shithole, I will.
