Legal Question in Sexual Harassment in Washington

Do I have a case? Pay short too!

my new boss (of 1 week) started calling us women in his office prostitutes. He said he was ''Pimping us for payments'' (I was at a collection office). On Wed, he said to me ''Dont sound like last weeks hooker when you call these people''. I have been VERY upset over these remarks & terms. I wrote him a formal letter asking him to stop and that I was uncomfortable & this was making for a hostile work enviro. he called me into a meeting with another rep and reamed me for a while then agreed to stop. On my way out the door, he said ''thanks a lot hooker''

I immediatly went to my desk and emailed him: that because of this harassment he has made for an intollerable work enviorment and has forced me to quit eff immediatly.

Do I have a case for anything?

I have copies of all documentation.

What do I do?

NOW, he sent me my last paycheck...3 hrs short!

Since you only worked there one week, you'll have a hard time finding an attorney to take this case. I suggest you file a complaint with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission or Human Rights Commission
