First, his promotion to be our supervisor was definitely through favouritism, as he is old and cannot write proper English.  They overlook guys who have gone to school, preferring 'Yes men'.  Second, are supervisors allowed to greet our wives in company memos?  Some of them look at our wives with love in their admiring and jealous eyes.  Where do I appeal so that my dismissal is reversed?
