You have unleashed the fucking fury!!

[Nochowderforyou]

hey,

I'm just a little pissed off this morning because I feel, I got a wrongful firing.

I just moved to Vancouver and have been working this job at a kitchen just downstairs from my place. I get a call last night at 9pm, I was in the shower, so he left me a message. He said, "uhhh, sorry to do this over the phone, but we had a pregnant girl leave here in June and she now wants her old job back" Now, the job is MY job, MY hours, so she wants MY job back..."we can offer you a nighttime prep. job..." which I don't want because that is a step lower for me, and, it's night time work, whcih sucks ass...."the job pays an hr less in wage, but anyways, come talk to me tomorrow let me know what you think and I'll give you the weeks work that you worked out of the register"

Okay, I got this job after a good week or negotiating. I rejected the work at first because of the low pay and hours, but she phones me up, we worked out hours which were prefect for me. $11/hr, Mon-Fri. no weekends, 9am-3pm, so after weeks of neg. and working there no more than 10 days, I get my job taken away from me because some fat prego. wants her job back. Awww...so sad you fuckin whore.

Anyways, I feel I was wrongfully let go of my job. I know they offered me another position, but that just won't work. This is like someone who gives another a gift, then takes it back later on! I'm going down there in a few hours to get my money and I'm going to let them know what a cold slap in the face this was. I'm not going to curse or raise my voice, but I'm going to very blunt with them. Assholes. Now I have no job, and I have to look for another. On top of all this, I turned down an okay job for this one when I first moved here, now, I have NONE.

take it to court, they cant just fire you cause some fat prego wants her job back, they have to have a legit reason for firing you......or.....if you want to elevate the situation.......firebomb the bitches house

[Nochowderforyou]

Nah, I don't want to take it to court. That requires a lawyer, loads of money and crap. If this was a carreer job like a Scientist or something, then yeah, I would fight for my job.

I'm just cheesed right off. This is bullshit, and they're going to hear it within a few hours when I go get my money. It is unfair in my eyes. Molitov Cocktails calling me.

woah, im sorry to hear that man, and your right, thats fucked. They cant do that.

[yoda]

i dunno laws in canada, but yeah that is fucked up....although if she was on maternal leave, she should be able to get her job back. but if she quit, she aint entitled to shit.

[MastaChronic]

ive got a better idea than burning her house to the ground... she took your job away, so you take her kid away, is she still pregnant? if so give her a combo of mifepristone and misoprostol, or give her the old MVA with a vacuum

[Nochowderforyou]

Yoda: I'm not sure about the maternal leave or not. He didn't mention anything like that when I started or what would happen in the future.

But anywho, I'm going down there pretty soon and I'll find out what the fuck their problem is.

[napolitana869]

wow that really sucks man. maybe you could take the job they're offering now but get them to give you the same pay that you got with your other job until you find one you like better.

[Wesley Pipes]

dude that fuckin sucks, threaten to take them to court, they didn't mention anything about that woman bein on maternity leave, and if she was then they were obligated by law to tell you that your job was only temporary, so either take em to court, or just threaten to, they will back down!

Employers have an awful lot of power. My woman is a school counselor. She's been working there 35 years, and has tenure. But even so, they can transfer her to another school and stick her in a class full of 5 year olds, and she couldn't say a thing. The one thing they can't do is fire her without cause (but it's awfully easy to trump up charges and she has a dick principal now who is trying to do just that in a thinly-disguised case of reverse discrimination). They can't cut her pay either. The reverse discrimination is a clique of blacks basically conspiring to eliminate all the non-black folks from any positions of authority. That's extremely hard to prove though, and they've left enough token whites (at the bottom of the pay scale of course) to cover themselves. So, my woman said fuck it, she's retiring after this year. It's a brutal urban area anyway, and I fear for her life every day she leaves for work, so I'm glad she's retiring. Less money, but she'll live longer, and with less stress. And hell, she'll make $60k/year doing nothing at all once she retires, for the rest of her life, and she's still rather young to be retired.

Best to find out your employer sucks sooner rather than later, so you can move on before you've put down too many roots.
