Hi jenn,
hang in there. Are you able to collect unemployment in canada? I live in pennsylvania and when you are laid off you can collect unemployment checks and get new training for a new type of job. Is that a possiblity there? Is there some other kind of job you would rather do? Is there another way to use your skills. Look for a job that may accomadate your needs a little more better. There could be a lot of different options for you. Don't let your old boss get you down...Rise above her! When your pushed out the door you have the whole world to choose from! Take a break if you can afford it!

I chose to leave a job that I loved because my boss didn't have the heart to let me go, so I had to make the better business decision. I now work with a very flexible schedule to meet my needs as a mother, wife, and a lupie. I make less money and that has taken me a very long time to get use to (i'm still working on it). I have been able to do yard work, gardening, canning, cooking at home, keep up with cleaning and laundry. I've also had time to read, do stain glass windows, and breed love birds finches, and now i'm going to try parakeets (well I let it up to them to breed I just get to watch...Ha ha). I make bird toys and sell them to stores, and I make beaded bracelets and earrings to sell. I even found some time to start a support group for people with chronic illnesses that is christian based. Today I took a walk....Brrr....A short one lol. I shared this with you in hopes that you would realize that you have many options. Let me know how you are doing! Good luck. Daisy

Hey jenn!
I am so sorry that you are bummed! Besides...That is what we are here for! To give support to one another...You gripe away!

Keep us informed on how you are!

Hugs,

Hi jenn, I don't know about canada, but in florida a few years ago ,i had a co-worker who was a diabetic. Our boss threatened to fire her because she was taking off for doctors app. And stuff like that. She told him to go for it.... She would sue ,because you could not fire\lay off someone for medical reasons as long as when they were there they did their job . I'd check on that if I was you.

Here in america we have something called the american with disabilities act. If there is such a program in canada I suggest you look into it.

You should also hire a lawyer. You may be tired now, tired of working, of fighting and of working but believe me, if you do not nip this in the bud then other employers will walk all over you.

You have a debilitating disease. You are disabled. You have rights.

Do the right thing.
