Re: Boss showing personal documents to co-workers

Your resume isn't a personal document. It is information
you freely provided to a prospective employer with full
knowledge that it would be shared among multiple individuals
at that company. It is not protected information, and there
is really nothing to prevent the information from being
shared with your peers. It may not be professional, but
when you voluntarily hand information over to a company you
cannot control how they use that information.

In addition, having "chuckles" at your expense doesn't
affect your ability to maintain employment, doesn't cost you
a promotion or a job, and has no demonstrable harm. Without
harm, exactly what are you suing to recover? Your dignity?

Because I don't think they award damages for that.
