Yeah it'd be like after a couple weeks "oh by the way" that kind of stuff usually can't be enforced. They're trying to change an agreement that was agreed upon by both parties. Louisiana is a state that actually backs the employee pretty good and probably wouldn't allow it.I've never had a job where the handbook didn't come after the being hired.
Usually get hired then handbook on the first day of actually working. been a long time since I've had one of those fancy type jobs.
Thinking you've been there a couple weeks now? It would be strange to wait that long. Maybe there's a running joke in there somewhere that they haven't completely explained to you.
From your first post it seemed awful silly for a job you were excited to get to be like screw their rules right from the beginning.
