[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 577614, member: 1550"] Nope. I didn't sign anything. If I had to do that, I probably wouldn't have taken the job. I don't know anything about the kid's personal lives. I was just a bus aide. There is nothing like that in the employee handbook either. John has no idea what I talk to them about. They haven't told him. I don't tell stories. I simply show them my termination letter that was written by him. That's all I need to tell them. I run into people all the time. I ran into a pair of twins today at Walmart and his father asked where I'd been. I showed him the letter. He looked puzzled and said, "You were never rude to me. Not once." I can't imagine that this is in any way illegal. I don't have a lawyer, but I did call the police after he left his nasty voicemail and they said that I can talk to whoever I wanted to talk to, just like John can talk about me to whoever he wants to and say whatever he wants to say. It was very important to me to know and to show John that the parents did not agree with him. Maybe if I wasn't disabled and could just have blown it off and found another job flipping burgers it wouldn't have mattered to me. But that's not the case. I want the lies off my record, which is what I'm fighting for in my disabilities suit. One way to make my case is to have a documented list of parents I have spoken to who did not agree with John. By the reception I got, they weren't feeling awkward. I've known these people for a long time and had good relationships with them. The few I didn't know well, I didn't bother with. I either know I would be welcome or I did not go. This is not a job where I had confidential info about the kids or family. I had basically no knowledge of them. I know ex-employees who do babysit for the kids they'd had on their bus. Susie, I love you dearly, but I can't afford a lawyer...lol.
