Legal Question in Employment Law in Michigan

My boss has done this-

-Chris list -

Just ones I really, remember-

Having his wife call me to bitch at me

And then grabs the phone and tells me to “be careful”

Smashing a full metal water bottle on the floor next to me and screaming in my face

Talks about my “tone of voice”

I’m too shrill or “bitchy” sounding

How may times have the guys been sat in your office for “ talking back or voicing thoughts and opinions”

First clue there..

Praising myself- and followed by a condescending comment from him to “keep me in check” or an eye roll.

But the guys get “ hey bud- blah blah men talk blah blah- you’re a real numbers guy” pat on back!

Guys are way better than me at running numbers and times

The fact I even have to defend myself or be asked this ( name times he has been a sexist or bully)

The time you fired Jake for sexual harassment but said that Alyssa should

have been grateful since she’s “unattractive “

The time you let Tanner continue to work here after the horrid messages he left

Saying the lady at the office enjoyed playing them. Making me

Look like a punk to staff.

( I love tanner but wtf )

The time you sent Andrea to work in Saginaw because she was too “Dikey”

When you asked (at a meeting) if the women at work could wear makeup so they looked better at the counter

The numerous times I’ve been asked if a girl is cute or a new hire is cute or attractive

The times you ask for the cute girls at work to work concessions downtown or anywhere

How you treat me- and the fact that I’ve wanted to franchise, and expressed that but you had met with Bill already.

Unwanted Shoulder rubs (ugh)

Started to duck them!!!

Telling new hires how important it is to look good and smell good

Managers got a new vehicles around the same time- and he praised everyone but me- in front of me.

Talking about needing women hired for pretty at the counter

Saying that the store is too much of a “dick party” not enough girls

Said threatening to kill someone wasn’t a fireable offense

Brett—-

Guys club!!!!

Video taped write up!??!

Talking me down in front of

Others even with great accomplishments

Noting of people’s clothes and bodies

Hand on my shoulder to tell me to use my nice voice during the pandemic to staff about meeting outside- like I wouldn’t!??!!

Demeaning “speech” won Rolex for gd company sales

QUIT

Don’t kill self

Don’t

and I quit. !!!!!

Some are petty. Some made me feel worthless! Can I get unemployment or sue him for being pressured out of a job of 16 years?
