After 20 years at the same small company, where he worked 6 days/wk., every week,
my husband's boss fired him because of an argument they had. It was stupid, about my husband taking an emergency call from me...his wife of 31 yrs.,I've been sick for 1.5yrs.,and homebound, and sometimes needed Tom to pick-up a Rx, or dinner,etc.
Tom LEARNED and DID every job in the place.He was supposed to be their warehouseman, but, they were short-handed, so he also did retail sales, deliveries,
lamp repair, counter sales, talked with Reps,etc. 2 months earlier, he dislocated his shoulder, at work, and had to wear an immobilizer for 2 months,...BUT, he still went to work---every day!!! And, as if it wasn't enough to fire him,...this 'BOSS' filed an appeal with unemployment, saying Tom shouldn't get it because of "Insubordination"!! Worst yet,
the Unemployment hearing person AGREED!!! and, they took away Tom's unemployment!!!
They said, workers may never "talk-back" to bosses!!! REVENGE!!!!!!!!!!!
