Michelle is a partner in an accounting firm who supervises Len,
a junior accountant who has worked there as an employee for 12
years and makes $80,000 per year. Len’s employment contract states
that he is entitled to 4 weeks termination notice. Len did the tax
returns for the past 3 years for Felicia, a client of the firm.
Recently Revenue Canada audited Felicia’s tax returns and
disallowed many of the deductions Len had calculated for her.
Felicia now owes Revenue Canada $75,000 in unpaid taxes and
penalties and has decided to sue the accounting firm for
professional negligence. Michelle had never liked Len as he had
frequently made careless errors but she had always corrected them
without warning him to improve his work. A few times she had
smelled alcohol on his breath and wondered if he had been drinking
while at work. When Michelle found out about Felicia’s lawsuit she
was furious. She approached Len while he was eating lunch with some
other accountants and told him in front of his co-workers that he
would be transferred to their office 100 km. north of the city and
that he would be working only on basic bookkeeping. Len said he
couldn’t work at their northern office as he had to take care of
his sick mother in the city. He also said that bookkeeping is for
first year accountants. Michelle said he was lucky to even
have a job after all of his past mistakes, so he better adjust to
the new situation or look elsewhere for employment. Len was
really angry at Michelle, and while still sitting with other
co-workers, faced her and screamed “I quit, but you and this firm
are going to have to pay me a lot of money for these actions”.
Michelle just laughed and said, “We had every right to fire you
anyway, but quitting is perfect. We owe you nothing either
way.”
