Mahnmut

This is not the military, and by the way what happened in your school was wrong, which is why it's not being done any more in schools. People shouldn't be humiliated in order to keep their job, or as a stimulation to become "more productive". Not in private business, and not in state-owned enterprise, and especially not at an early age where it could have lasting consequences. There's nothing "unique" here. This is universal. She didn't apply for this job in order to be humiliated, and she was in her right to sue him, and penalizing the employer was right. I've had cases like these where I've assisted abused employees to sue their abusive employers, and most of them have won their cases. Because this is the 21st century. I find the notion that "this is just how it is, so shrug, there's little we can do", quite despicable. Even if you include an "I don't like it" disclaimer. That is all.
