I am seven months pregnant and for the past two months at work, my boss has been making comments like, "You don't look so good; I don't think you'll make it till October." (when I had planned to leave on paid maternity.)
Today, she told me that today would be my last day! She said with the "way I had been feeling", she didn't think it would be in my best interest to stay until October. Keep in mind that I had never complained about the way I had been feeling to her or anyone I work with.
She told me that she had hired someone to work my hours starting on Monday. This is blatant pregnancy discrimination. I can file for unemployment, but the issue here is that what she did is illegal and I want to make her see that. Can I sue the company?
