Man tasered repeatedly at work files lawsuit

I think this is one situation where I would have beat some co worker ass. I usually don't condone violence but here I would.

Quote:

HOUSTON – A man filed a civil lawsuit against his former employer after he said he was hurt terribly and humiliated in front of co-workers and customers for nine months.

Bradley Jones, 45, worked at Fred Fincher Motors for more than four years.

He said for the last nine months, his fellow employees began sneaking up on him and hitting him with a stun gun.

He said it happened at least two dozen times and each incident left him more on edge.

“I was constantly looking behind my shoulder, distracted, couldn’t sleep,” Jones said. “I would even look behind my shower curtain at home.”

Jones said his boss Sam Harless provided the taser and also held the camera many times. The videos were posted on YouTube, but have been taken off.

Jones sued his former employer and two employees for assault and battery, and failure to provide a safe work place.

“I’m just happy that I’m an American and I’m in a country where the justice system works,” Harless said. “This is a frivolous lawsuit -- once the facts come out, it will be thrown out.”

Jones was looking for another job and his attorney said criminal charges could follow.

“It was unacceptable,” Jones said. “It was hurtful. It was wrong.”

Yeah...frivolous. Not so much. They will be writing a large check to this guy.

Wow, the boss held the camera? nice.

This just helps to confirm to me that most car salesmen are low life scumbags.

Works with immature dipshits pretty much.

Sure a joke 1 or 2 times, but 2 dozen times, wtf

The customers that left with only a little anus bleeding now feel lucky.

Yes, sounds beyond stupid. So much so I wonder if there is more to the story. If not, dude deserves to win.

Sounds too bazaar to be just face value but :shrug:

That must be the most stupid employer on the planet. It's shocking that they would be doing it to people, but then to video it and put it on youtube? They might as well give the dealership to that guy.

The big concern is that the boss's wife is a state representative. The only chance of not paying a lot of money is if she interferes with the justice system. I don't know how courts work, so she may not have any influence, which would be good.

I used to work just down the street from this place when I lived in Houston. I knew a few guys that had been through there, its a scum factory.

I would have been kicking some ones ass well before 9 months of it. That guy seemed like a pretty nice guy just showing up for work. Selling cars has to be stressful enough just to make sales and live off of your sales.

His boss seemed like an arrogant jerk & this case can go from civil courts to assault charges.

The guy should have reported this long ago to better business burro.

While on deployment, my squad had to get Tasered. Uh, that was 8 seconds of hell. Never again. And it would of took one time for these pricks to do that to me, and I would of been postal. being tasered is no joke. I still get uncomfortable looking at power boxes......

FTS........
