It will soon be Friday at noon. That’s when I’ll publish an article that discusses a vital system in New York state and the two companies who handle the front-end of things. I cannot give the article’s title as the companies’ names are part of it. As for Company A, I will give you a hint: it had a major data breach last year and took forever to make it public. I cannot give the name now as it is in a class of itself. It also gives enough time for them to get their stuff together. Company B will be discussed in the article.
The article will expose things that they don’t want you to see. But this is an informative project with a legitimate plan. And I’m already facing legal issues. It’s probably going to get pretty ugly pretty fast because they have the power to prevent this article and will not.
Below is a little taste of the article. This was going to be surprise for Company A and for Company B, but just in case they fix it before the entire thing gets published. On Thursday, I will post a photograph taken in the lobby of Company A. All it is is proof that I returned my work from home. Nothing confidential, other than that logo that they don’t want you to see. This is important because photography is absolutely forbidden due to the highly secure nature of clients in the building.
Conduent violates labor laws. Somehow, I’m not surprised. And it came from the president of the company! Sometimes, people forget their password. It happens. Unfortunately, with their current systems, it can take half an hour before that person logs in. This means that you have nothing to do. That part is not their fault.
The president has ordered that any employee who gets locked out will not be paid for that time. Problem is, that violates New York state law. In this situation, the employee is “engaged to wait” and must be paid for time. This has been reported to the Labor Department and retroactive pay might be paid.
When my supervisor told me this when I got locked out, I just smiled and acknowledged it. I knew that that was illegal. I thought to myself that the president should have spoken with corporate counsel first. I am 0wed a half an hour. It’s petty, but this is about principle.
You’ll also want to learn about a scandal that is about to cause some major issues for the state.
Check back on Saturday for the full article. You will learn about how your very sensitive data is handled by a company that had a breach and much, much more based on a year of experience. Since there a few days before it posts, I have to watch out for myself. I’m not sure how they’re going to respond. A higher-up at [Company B] noting all the documents I would violate with my posting.
“Please be aware you would be in direct violation of the Employee Proprietary Information, Non-Disclosure and Innovation Assignment Agreement Form in addition to several policies including of Conduct Rules, Use of Company Name & media Inquiries, and Section 7 under Company Property including Nondisclosure or Use of Trade Secrets in our company handbook. I have attached these signed agreements in addition to the signed Arbitration Agreement Form.”
“If this goes to court, you might win. At that point, all you’d get is very little. Not even enough to cover [REDACTED]’s lawyers’ photocopy paper. In other words, I am not afraid of a couple documents that may have never been signed me in the first place as you don’t use live signatures. I am not afraid of [REDACTED] and I am not afraid of [REDACTED]. This article is being written with a specific purpose. Govern yourself accordingly.”
Just for the record, all of the non-disclosure agreement (NDA) documents that I signed are now worthless as I will report my concerns to the government, making me a whistleblower. Suing me would not only get them less than nothing, but it would be retaliating against a whistleblower with valid claims. I know a lot more than people think I do.
But I will ask of you one favor: if you see Marines walking towards me, just go into Glory, Glory, Hallelujah and I’m sure things will work out.
