Just when I thought things were getting better for the company
"Fred's Miracle Cough Syrup", another tragedy has struck again as a
series of unfortune events. Luckily fraudulent allegations were
dropped and resolved when attending counseling and the worries of
trademark infringement no longer exists from Don during his
unfortune accident. However, a sexual discrimination complaint has
come forward from Tammy against Fred and the company.
After being faced with the question regarding the impact of
a public offering, this must mean the company is doing well
financially as well. When going public, any allegation or law suit that
raise is problematic to the company. Tammy stating Ted received the
company because he is a male is a little difficult in this day and age
since gender roles are constantly changing. Tammy would have to
prove that he identifies as a different gender then her to begin with.
Once it is established by Ted what his pronouns are, Tammy can
continue with the lawsuit however, she would have to prove she did
not have an equal opportunity to Ted. He may have more experience
or a higher degree then Tammy. That would make him more qualified
than her. If Tammy had higher credentials and experience, then it
would have to be proven by receiving his resume and confirming his
references. This accusation would have to have several examples on
how Tammy is more qualified than Ted other than he is a man
otherwise men should be stay at home dads if they should not be
hired because of his gender. This situation could reverse on Tammy
for making a false accusation since in the Case Study 3 I do not see
any evidence of how Tammy was qualified over Tammy. Having
experience in the company as a delivery worker for the company
does not make her a qualified bookkeeper automatically. It is difficult
to become public and effects the stock market while becoming a
corporation which becomes a trickling effect and will affect any or all
investors or shareholders for the company. If investors want to
pullout of the company with would be crucial to expanding. This
would create a bad reputation to the company and future
investments to dig the company out of the hole out of they may run
into since the company is prone to unethical employees.
