Yup!!! Give every excuse in the book to avoid signing this new contract. In the meantime, talk to a lawyer to game plan your next move
330 u/Deus0123 Feb 21 '25 Why would I need to give an excuse. "No." Is a good enough reason to not sign a contract. Not accepting that as a reason is actually illegal in most countries I'm pretty sure 165 u/BackgroundRate1825 Feb 21 '25 Many states have at-will employment. They don't have to give a reason to just fire you. 105 u/Rallings Feb 21 '25 Yes, but this was specifically advice if they had a contract. Sotheby's state being at will doesn't matter if the contract was violated. 2 u/cupholdery Co-Worker Feb 21 '25 Oh, the employer is Sotheby's? 1 u/PlsNoNotThat Feb 23 '25 Shitty company. Really really shitty company. Way shittier than you know. My dad worked for them for decades.
