What do you think of an employer that does this?

[HereWeGoAgain]

More than 200 employees in four states? Still run by my family?

You work for others, sonny. You always have.

So you work for daddy and mommy huh? Why am I not surprised.
No wonder you're so full of white guilt. You didnt earn your life,mom and dad gave it to you.
Me? I retired at 46 on my own merit.

Businesses CAN be assholes, yes. If she did well at her job, never got bad marks or write ups, then they should want to keep her. But, they already fired her. She didn't ask for the GB prob. But they have a business to run. Understood. However, I can be a vicious bitch so if it were me..I'd contact the labor board, AND get a lawyer AND contact the local news for a human interest story of Bad Big Business Fires Woman With Kids and Needs Surgery. The bank will either hire her back THEN find a reason to fire her, or pay her to go away.

I think the NLRB is exactly who she needs to talk to. But I think she is resigned not to fight it, because after what happened to her, I don't think she wants to go back.

If she takes em to court she'll get black balled. Trust me on this.

My niece has developed problems with her gall bladder, and has missed days at her new job (she has been in very bad shape). The place where she has been working has a policy of no missed days for the first six months (a common probationary period). A couple of days ago she was in such bad shape that she was admitted to the hospital for further testing. She was released after a day, but her doctor had scheduled her to have surgery. He also wrote her a note for her work. She called her manager to tell him that she had a note from her doctor but that she would try to come in if it meant keeping her job. He told her that HR had already fired her. She called HR and they said the manager had fired her. Now she not only doesn't have a job, she has no insurance and is facing an expensive operation and convalescence, and still has a family with three children to raise.

I think that any employer that does this to its employees, particularly one like her that they admitted was a good worker, is dastardly and not worth working for. So my question is should employers be allowed to do this to new employees?

"allowed"?

did she know her condition before hand?

did she go on the aca?

can she go on UE
can she get financial aid

can you, as her brother, man the fuck up and help her?


pussy

Typical GOP response.

The NLRB will only review a case that has standing. The facts as described offer no standing. Unless there is evidence the termination was discriminatory, retaliatory or punitive, the board will not consider the case.

Oh no doubt it would be a waste of time.
But your name will get out there if you try and sue an employer.

It might not be, and no it won't.

 

[Gracie]

If she does not want to work at this place, then she should apply for unemployment since she was fired, get whatever needs done medical wise, then go job hunting again.
Myself, I would fight them. But thats me.

Six months probation? That's weird, it's usually 90 days. Sucks about her gallbladder but she took the job knowing that there was a probationary period. She can not fulfill her end of the commitment, tough break.

Stop with the bleeding heart shit, she can sign up for obamacare insurance under the exception rule.

Is she sure she needs it removed? I had gallstones and they insisted I have my gallbladder removed. The stones passed (yes, it is extremely painful but tylenol w/codeine was very effective in relieving the pain). I held off on surgery. That was ten years ago, not a problem since then.

In some jobs it's 2-3 years probation. But like I said...during probation they can let you go for whatever reason or no reason at all. Is it nice? No...but businesses usually don't run on nice.

Many businesses do not give a crap about their employees ... not these days, anyway.

There is a problem with that as well, you must show continuous employment for 6 months within the past 12 month cycle to qualify. Disability would be a more likely avenue.

I would be very surprised if an employer did that to a good employee.
Hell,I started pretty much every job I ever had with a weeks vacation after two months.
You just tell em you have a trip planned and paid for and they'll always let you have it...assuming after two months you've proven your worth.

Amazing since I have never heard of a vacation being paid for after 2 months employed with a company...

i hear ya....i worked in the PO and as lax as they were you could not do jack shit till after 90 days...unless you had a dam good reason....

this is what happens in non-union places....sorry to say Oro,but if the company has a policy about attendance,than thats the policy,its fucked up of them since this is somewhat different than just calling in saying you dont feel good.....but 90% of the companies out there can care less about the welfare of its employees,something happens to you,tough shit.....they expect loyalty from you but they dont feel they need to return any....i delivered mail for 33 years and have heard this story hundreds of times over the years from people on the route....

What a load of horseshit.
If you're any good at what you do they arent going to fire you.

we are talking about an employee with less than 6 months in are we not?....whats a load of horseshit is you thinking a decent new employee would not be fired for doing this.....but than again i guess you have worked everywhere....
