Why do Federal employees desire to adjudicate their discrimination claims in Federal Court as quickly as possible and avoid the EEOC route? Is it because the EEOC has less than competent judges? Is it because the EEOC sits on Hearings and Appeals for YEARS? Is it because their investgations are lacking?
I submit all of the above.

The cases need to get taken care of quickly but seriously without rubber stamping either side.
Of course if you make it too hard, and too long, to get a fair hearing...the weaker party, (employees truly being discriminated against,) will just give up and leave.
That certainly is not good for anyone!
If you make the hoops just a bit easier to jump through then maybe we can actually find ways to fix the problems.

I was an EEO counselor for over 25 years and I do not believe in the process. Things take too long, they get sent to places and get lost, and then they come up with excuses to through the claim out. I used to believe in the system but over time, too many corrupt people have risen to the top and they are the ones now running the show. I know that court should be the last resort but then again it may be the only way someone gets a fair deal but then again, that doesn't always happen either.

I know to well about EEO Counselor discouraging an employee not to file EEO when supervisor discriminated against her. I advised employee to file when the discrimination first happened, she contacted EEO Counselor and she was told she needed to wait until she had more. So she did another incident happened she filed and after she filed she was terminated.
