I was a 'highly valued' employee for almost two years. I outranked most others in my performance evaluations and maintained a very highly positive client relationship. Less than 1% (DOCUMENTED) ever had a reason to complain, and it always was solved when I would make contact with the customer to see what could be done. Nothing more than minor mis-understadings. I recevied several commendations for bringing in customers and actually retaining them.
Then, on Novenber 3. My beloved daddy, a man who was my heart, died in his sleep in a local hospice. I had spent 6 days by his side, never leaving. I remember the absolute heart break of that moment of death. I was given 4 days to make arrangements, hold a service, and return to work.
I had plenty of documentation showing that I was runnning on a very low reserve and ADAMANTLY advised by my doctor to grieve at least a week or two. Of course, I was made to be the "bad guy", a lady unable to stop crying.
I returned to work THE DAY AFTER my daddy was laid to rest. At approx. 12:30pm, my immediate supervisor Jay S. Walked in the door. I felt such hope and pleasure to see him, naiviely thinking he was there to offer his condolences and help.instead, I was WRITTEN UP FOR:
Having my mother call me out of work since i was too upset to report the latest. I was told that was a serious violation to attendance reporting. Also, I forgot to take the garbage.
I was dumbstruck, and why I did not grab my things as I could have and stormed up, I'll never know. My child needs me sooooo much right, i can't just quit. The following week, I was visited by Jay S. And T. Kapserchechz came dowm, accused me of theft, and told me to leave AT THAT EXACT MOMEMNT no reason, just because.
I complained to HR, the BBB, the State of OH Labor Control BOard, with NO responses. After leaving, the REAL reason for my dismissal was made clearly. Downsizing me. With the date effective of 11/3. Yep, you read I was merely a pawn;
