[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Seriously - lawyers?

So American to deal with every little issue by suing. No wonder people can't cope with life - they don't deal with anything - just sue and have lawyers deal with it.

No. But if I were in a hostile workplace environment and sort of "brand new" to that world (as teens are), I would ask experts for advice about how to approach it.  And so would you, I'll bet.  That's pretty much what smart people do, you know.  Get good ideas from smart people, in this case your parents, a family friend who's a lawyer (who's job it is to work with people to resolve problems) or an HR person.

I did it when I had to figure out how to approach my daughter's school about a complicated school related issue.  I asked a teacher, an administrator, a counselor what they thought first, and they helped give me perspective and the language I needed.  Absolutely helped move things in the right direction much, much faster--it wasn't hostile or anything. But it was obvious I was informed and prepared.

Getting information from smart, professional, experienced people is a good idea. It's sort of like going window shopping.

So what are your ideas--but please share only if you're smart.
