Got laid off 1st day back to work from surgery

Wow,, just wow...I can't believe he said that after your surgery. I bet something better is in the cards for you. Look at it as an opportunity for a great change. You will be changing inside and out as it is...here's to the new you!!!

He is a jerk plain and simple. I KNOW something has got to be better than that place. I'm feeling better, a lil' more confident (I'm 15 days post op) and ready for a change. Thanks for the nice words! I appreciate it!

How awful! Love the use of his terrible pun there. I'm sorry! I will probably be fired from my job soon as well...

I really hope you don't lose your job also. Hang in there!

I'm not sure if this was answered already, but where are you from? Doesn't FMLA protect you against getting laid off? Or, maybe it wouldn't even be worth the fight anyway. :-(

I'm in Dallas/Fort Worth area. I didn't take FMLA because I wasn't out of the office very long.

That's just rotten. I hope it turns out to be for the best. Find your dream job :-)

Not all changes are good but be sure that along with your weight loss and a new job, you will be motivated to make all kinds of changes in your life. That's what it is all about. Good luck to you and may your next job be your dream job.
