Legal Question in Employment Law in Georgia

The Golden Rule (which is the 2nd rule of the workplace) holds that "He who has the gold makes the rules." The employer may as a condition of employment change your pay rate unilaterallly, or deduct the $330 from your paycheck, so long as in doing so the employer does not pay you less than the minimum wage (plus overtime if you worked it) for all the hours you worked in the week that he made the deduction. If you continue working, that constitutes an agreement to his condition. Ifyou quit, however, he will have nothing to deduct the wages from. He certainly cannot sue you for the loss, unless you have a contract that provides otherwise, or unless you were the one who took the fuel.
