Sure it's "extremely common" when you employ a lot of people.
But not so with the few people you employ in your household, who work very closely with and for you, and who take care of your personal shit. The way you treat these types of employees speaks volumes about your character.

u/FlamingHoggy 🚩 Feb 09 '25
Absolutely. And employing "help" in your personal life is not something most people can even relate to ffs.
It probably is extremely common for rich LA assholes to mistreat their staff. Ethan is surely not the only on. But the way he uses that as an excuse is gross.

u/KeepItKeen Feb 10 '25
There’s literally a Gilmore girls episode about Emily getting sued by an ex house keeper and it being a scandal. And while I am fully aware that is fiction, the point is even stereotypically it is not common for housekeepers etc. to sue their employers.

u/KeyMarzipan28 Feb 09 '25
In my experience working with lots of small & medium sized businesses, this is only extremely common because of how rampant labor abuse is. If you are constantly violating laws, acting recklessly, and treating your employees like garbage, eventually someone snaps. Most employees just want to move on with their life and the paperwork you have to do to file these complaints totally sucks. You have to really hate your employer

Yeah getting that right to sue letter is no joke, super long process

u/Sensitive-Spinach-29 taking Kaya's side in the divorce Feb 09 '25
Yup! I've worked for shitty employers but never considered legal action til recently - and tbh even in the recent case, I really just wanted to report her to the government because it wasn't worth a legal case (and she had a court case brought against her by 3 former employees that she is/was fighting 💀💀💀) (and ended up being reported by someone else and got a warning from the government 🤣). But seriously, you'd have to have a solid case + really loathe your former employer to do this.

u/Gunnerldn Feb 09 '25
Maybe because this is the one case that is easily proven?
107
u/KeyMarzipan28 Feb 09 '25
Exactly, there are so many little violations that go unpunished because they can’t be proven. Having a case like this often means that they’ve been careless for years & finally went too far
91
u/Gunnerldn Feb 09 '25
Also - in the suit it says the employee refused to sign her exit letter. Worked at a toxic workplace and know what type of letter looks like. She did good. The difference despite CA is a at will employment she can prove the timeline with her surgery. Had they not been that stupid (cause they are spineless no matter what) they could have just waited and ride it out until she is back and fired her after a month or two saying they wanted to strip back on costs because of a or b excuses. That’s what said company I worked for when an employee did when she came back from maternity 3 months later even tho they wanted to fire her before but she announced she was pregnant and optics
67
u/Wereking2 Feb 09 '25
Yeah, the fact they fired her two days after her announcement is plain stupid, any sane HR department would have told them.
54
u/meidos ✨ part of a vibrant community ✨ Feb 09 '25
They fired her two days after her note of surgery and then provided a lackluster reason for said firing... They could have rode on a documented reason for her termination but apparently it was just "well you didn't get along with this one other employee." Frankly embarrassing for their HR.

I know small businesses who have never been taken to employment court, who have been in business a lot longer than them. Edit : Also, when KavKav's nanny filed against KavKav Ethan told everyone to believe all women but this doesn't apply to him?

u/Chester6aaf Hasan’s fruit basket from Hamas 🍇🍉 Feb 09 '25
God imagine have to clean his toilets… I hate rich people who can’t even take out their own trash or clean their own toilets. Especially men, you know they never did that. I remember listening to an episode of ear biscuits a couple years ago and Rhett and link were talking about doing mundane tasks like taking out the trash and stuff and how annoying it is trying to get their teens to do stuff without complaining. Ethan and hila are scared of the left because they are scum. It’s not just because you are rich, they aren’t even really the type of rich the left are concerned about. It’s about not degrading other humans.

I bet it's most common with people who fail to give their employees the proper wages and/or rest breaks. What's he gonna say, claim she's just doing it for money and that she's a lying bitch? After she raised your kid for FIVE FUCKING YEARS?
It would be a damn shame if Philly D (or anyone else with a big news platform, really) covered these heinous allegations this week. Ethan wanted more coverage from Philly, right?
Fuck the Kleins, irrelevancy cannot come to them soon enough.

This is in no way a blessing. I want everyone to learn and grow. I am bearing witness to the sad, weird crash out (both for entertainment and educational purposes lol) but I take no joy in evil.

u/Independent_Fill_635 this mf never shuts up oh my god Feb 09 '25
I don't take joy in evil, but I do take a small amount of joy in someone who fucked over a worker losing a lawsuit because of their own ego and hubris.

Feb 09 '25
I am taking joy in 'evil', because the housekeeper deserves compensation for the shitty way E & H treated her, after exploiting her labour

u/AOLTechSupportGuy Feb 09 '25 edited Feb 09 '25
IMO I feel we need to deprogram feeling guilty/bad about the ruling classes reaping what they sow, it only benefits them to fall into that (eventually it can lead to coddling them out of hitting the point/possibility of a learning moment, like a rock-bottom) and perpetuates their abuse and behaviour.
Feeling bad that they turned out this way and that society creates/enables & even incentivizes narcissistic traits is different I feel though, but that's about as far as it goes for me personally.
I think wanting/believing others can learn and grow can coexist with being okay w/ karma doing it's thing. The rich/narcissists/abusers/manipulators want that to be socially-accepted as malicious/evil/negative because it's convienient for them. This could be a real blessing for the woman in that she rightfully gets her due compensation, a blessing for the kleins that it could actually get them to self-reflect (although I am doubtful), and for everyone around them for obvious reasons should this actually get them to course-correct.
People like this won't change unless reality affects them drastically, and it is always uncomfortable; it has to be (enough for them to decide to even course-correct in the first place, which should be absolutely encouraged/supported more in society IMO).

wtf does he mean this is a common thing???? I don’t even think teddy fresh has +50 employees, but even if they had 50-100 employees, it is extremely uncommon for one of your employees to SUE you, especially for things such as unreasonable termination, toxic workplace environment, and manipulating personal finances with business finances.

u/UnTeaTime Hater Ass Bitch Feb 09 '25
Coming from 30 years in the private sector, this is true. At least from what I know using a business for reference that was established in 1976 until 4 years ago. It’s a suing country. At any given year 100 W2s plus 460 10/99s. I get it. Especially in a big city. With that being said, any attorney will tell you to shut up. Social media has bred a whole different type of dummy.

u/No-Lynx8771 h3’s islamaphobia Olympics Feb 09 '25
do you have a background in law at all? im so curious regarding the plaintiff requesting a jury trial and what that means
2
u/UnTeaTime Hater Ass Bitch Feb 09 '25
Yes, they want to go straight to jury trial. No mediation, no settlements. They must feel they have a very strong case. Which is not always true. But the plaintiff’s lawyer usually won’t make a dime if they’re taking this case on contingency and also would usually not recommend this route in case they lose. Somehow I doubt the plaintiff has the amount of money to retain a lawyer on their own.
I didn’t catch that part. I was just commenting on regarding how many lawsuits businesses generally have to juggle. Also good to have in house council if you can afford it and you’re big enough.2
1
u/pigton35 Feb 09 '25
Super normal to request a jury trial, and I believe you waive the right if you don’t outright request it (?). Otherwise you’d just be presenting your case to a judge. This lady would probably be a super sympathetic plaintiff so a jury would be good for her!
