If this happens they’ll do the “A person who swears to tell the truth and nothing but the truth says what” ordeal. If that doesn’t work they will just let you leave
JUDGES HATE THIS ONE TRICK!
My client has plead Oopsie Daisy, Your Honor. Case Dismissed (drops mic)
LOL
Trump: “Yes.”
Normal brain World: “Liar!”
I once crossed off something I didn’t like on a contract and the boss scolded me and put a fresh new one in front of me while printing out yet another one.
All contracts are negotiable, you did nothing wrong other than not having a conversation before wasting paper, the main issue is that for most people the negotiation is “if you want to work here you have to agree to all this.”
But yeah reasonable accommodation and mutual understandings, etc, should be written down and signed. I challenged the non-disclosure agreement at my job once because it literally said I couldn’t talk about my work with ANYONE, and a plain reading of it would mean I’d be unable to even talk to my boss about what I was supposed to be doing. It was poorly written and probably unenforceable. My boss didn’t like that so I signed it anyway and then focused on finding work elsewhere (he was a dick and his company got raided by the FBI a few years later)
Thank you, this is valuable insight.
Judge: Do you swear to tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth?
Me: Fuck. Here, I swore.
Also contempt of court. Do not pass go.
“Anything you say can be used against you in court.”
“Titties.”
“…”
Held against you. It works much better with the proper wording.
