Houston, Texas. I've been the operations manager for a company for the last 32 months. The owner came to me with an "Employee Contract" that he stated that every employee at the company would have to sign as a condition of continueing employment. The contract included a cut in pay and a job title change. He also stated that there would be cuts accross the board. I declined to sign and was terminated. Now I understand that on other person refused to sign (and the contract contained a raise) and was not terminated. Now the contract has been taken back all together, and no body is being asked to sign. Do I have any recourse?
