Time for action!

Anynymously contributed:

Thank you SPSE-UPTE for your offer to assist the career workers that were laid off from LLNL on May 22 and May 23. I have 3 decades of faithful and productive service to LLNL. I have a perfect work history and always got very good or outstanding employee appraisals and was told on 5-22-08 to get out and we don't want you back. For Management to treat me and my co-workers like they did on the lay off day was outrageous.

I will take your advice and file a complaint resolution form before June 20 as the seniority rules were not followed in my work group. One big issue is the lay off unit I was placed in - management won't tell me which one my co-workers and I were placed in. All of us that were unfairly laid off need to FIGHT BACK.

Anyone know the name of a good Labor Law attorney that has many years of experience with this type of case as I believe a class action suit should be started.

You needed to fight back a LONG time ago. Instead the employees let themselves be picked off one by one, hoping the axe would hit someone else.

I truly wish a class-action suit would suceed. But being a pragmatic person, most likely the sheep will continue to bleet and not much else will happen.

I have a feeling that even though there are a lot of valuable career employees that were unfairly laid off and really should fight this illegal lay off, most will just move on with their life without filing a greivence or working with a attorney. Keeping quiet is exactly what LLNS management wants them to do.

Don't lay down - don't be a sheep - take the time to fight this lay off. A good employment law attorney might be able to get you some money for your pain, suffering and the financial loss.
