What the fuck is your point? “What happens if they find out im suing them” If your employer doesn’t pay you correctly and then fires you when you seek legal action they are fucked under the Fair Labor Standards Act. They’ve just increased their fine from up to 10k to add another 25k.

I actually perplexed why people are pushing back against my claim that people should seek to protect their federally protected work rights. The examples that have been brought up are open and shut cases that will be picked up by any law firm and they will sue for recomp + damages + lawyer fees. Yes its “harder” than doing nothing, but by doing nothing you do not fix the problem and continue to be exploited. There is no magic eye that can perfectly detect illegal activity its up to the victim to come forward and make their case thats how law works in our society.
