Older worker constructively discharged when moved to "death cubicle" 03-02-99
Mr. Ramos had been employed for almost 20 years, most recently as a budget supervisor, when a new accounting manager was hired. The manager made several comments about wanting "to get rid of old things" and "to bring in new blood" and "to change everything that was old."
A short time later, Mr. Ramos was replaced by a younger woman whom he had recently trained. Ramos' pay and benefits were not changed. Ramos was told that the decision had been made and he could "take it or leave it." Ramos agreed to the decision, and then took his vacation which already had been scheduled.
When he returned to work, his office assignment had been changed. The younger woman was in Ramos' former cubicle, and Ramos had been transferred to "the death cubicle," so named because all employees who had been assigned to it left the company. In his new cubicle, Ramos found his personal belongings in a box on the floor and an obsolete, non-working computer on his desk.
Ramos' manager demanded that Ramos produce some reports, which Ramos could not produce since his computer was not working. Finally, the manager stood in the entrance to Ramos' cubicle and threatened Ramos with an assault. Shaken by the confrontation, Ramos began to cry and went to the company infirmary. Ramos was excused from work by the company doctor; he never returned to work, and was diagnosed with depression.
Ramos sued and won $300,000 before a jury. The verdict (and attorneys fees of $36,500) were upheld on appeal by the First Circuit Court of Appeals.
