Employee: "They said I would get training on the equipment but never provided it."
Employer: "We fired her because she left work early."
Employee: "The manager's daughter has the same position and left early 10 minutes before I did but nothing happened to her."
Employers and managers who are fair, consistent, and competent have nothing to fear from such laws.
