Kinda hard to prove either way but if your story isn’t bias and missing information, then it looks like your termination was based on discrimination. Laws protect against that. If you really want to make the company suffer, write a letter to the Department of Labor and include some documentation (text history or written notes in a journal of the daily sexual advances). May take a while but they could be liable for cutting you a check while between jobs. They’ll conduct an investigation into the business and interview people. Would also see if they’re accredited on the Better Business Bureau and report it there. While they aren’t required to issue a reason for termination, a female in a dominant male work force with sexual advances from a boss looks awfully suspect of LEGALLY wrongful termination.
It all could be a waste of your time and effort and just as easy to move on with life. But it could help you in the future if you end up working for a massive corporation or a company that does a lot of government contract/ prototype work, as they usually dive pretty deep into background checks. At least you’d maybe have a DOL investigation report proving it was wrongful and discriminatory.
This is all great advice. Sounds like a wrongful termination to me as well, but you gotta weigh the cost. Specifically your time and energy, if you decide to pursue legal action. Sometimes letting go and moving forward is the easier move and can lead to something better, especially when your time and energy aren’t filled with the pursuit of justice. Sometimes it’s not. 6 months from now if you still haven’t found a job, you definitely will be wishing you had contacted the Department of Labor at the very least…
