[QUOTE=Uptown Girl;429953]For what it's worth, I would be inclined to let it go, rather than prolong the frustration and emotional upset making a claim with the labor board and following through with what's required. (been there, done that.)
Even if her hourly wage was $40, clearing your aura and being free of the negativity of regurgitating the unpleasantness is, in my opinion, worth far more than a few bucks. Letting go of the need for 'justice' is also quite liberating.
Was she treated with poor business etiquette? Absolutely.
Did her quitting leave him in the lurch during holiday season? Most probably.
This experience has provided the contrast to help your bride decide where she really prefers to work. That's the gift.[/QUOTE
