Maybe so. But I think a lot of people feel like me in that they find the entire process daunting. I’ve got young kids, a full-time job, I’m pretty much slammed all the time. Just the theoretical idea of adding “lawsuit” to my to-do list is already exhausting.

Fortunately enough people have sued where the official policy of any company larger than like, 1 employee, is to confirm dates of employment and say nothing else.

Consider that is exactly what bigCorp wants to you to feel. With that in mind, your feeling of daunt is doing exactly what the bigCorp? So do something for yourself and not in bigCorp's favor, and get over it and do what's right.

Not sure why you’re coming at me for expressing apprehension. Ease off the throttle, please.

If you read that as an attack, then I apologize as I worded it poorly. On a re-read, yes, it could have been worded better. Meant to been more of encouragement as "just swallow the fear and get over it" vs "don't be a wuss and just get over it."

All good, definitely felt like the latter and I’m glad to see it was just miscommunication.

Trust me I do what I can where I can!
