'Old boss told me to contact his lawyers... So I did': Worker fired for workplace injury, sues for commission they weren't being fairly paid
Oftentimes, in life, it can be startling just how incompetent some people are, they may be incompetent even to the point of cruelty and you may be convinced that cruelty is their base and driving function. However, as Hanlon's Razor reasons for us, we should "Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity." Of course, this doesn't always apply when greed and lust for power are driving forces, though stupidity often plays into these decisions too. Stupidity or cruelty, asserting your rights, and seeking to rectify the injustices done against you, serve as one of the only ways of dealing with people like this.
When this worker was fired from their job due to an injury, they pursued recourse, during which their due diligence led them to uncover that they had been being dramatically shorted on their contractually guaranteed commission. When they attempted to approach management about this they were rebuked, and, so, sought legal action. This led to them winning in court and receiving a far greater amount than they originally sought.
