Yeah, Rob got fired this morning.
he woke up last night PUKING his guts out
and practically slept in the bathroom on
the toilet. Still doing it right now, poor
guy.
Well, he called his boss this morning
(same boss that told him the other day
when he clocked in at 6:02 that if he was
*late* again hes fired
) and his boss goes, *we're gunna have to
have a talk tomorrow* and Rob was just
like, *ok, sorry, man i cant help it.*
Well a few minutes ago, the lady from
human resources called and told him they
were "Ending his assignment at Parsons"
What
The
HELL.
So today officially SUCKS ASS.

He transferred to Parsons when we moved

apparently so.
Illinois is a *right to work* state, as
was Florida, so they can fire him because
they dont like the way he dressed.
I wish he'd get on with a union, and
actually work FOR Caterpillar instead of
thru a sub-contracted company.
There goes our insurance.
So much for my reversal.
*sigh*

I would take it up with the labor board.
If he has worked there that long he should
be allowed at least a few sick days.

hes in the den as we speak online looking
for another job.
He'll find one, im not worried about
that.
Its just how freakin rude that boss of his
is, and how all this planning for my tubal
reversal is down the drain because his
boss is an asshole.

lol
yeah right.
we were going to take a few days durring
christmas and go see my parents. Well, his
boss flat out told him no, that he was
going to be working 6 days a week, 6-5:30
til further notice.
i think it was intentional to piss Rob
off.
And they get 1 personal day each year
after their vacation, and Rob took his
before we came up here.

well im sure i could if i can go thru the
process of convincing yet ANOTHER
insurance company to cover it.
Plus we have to wait minimum 90 days to
any insurance to kick in.
Thankfully my kids have a back-up
insurance thru Illinois Healthy Kids.

Yeah that sounds like a good try. Here too
you can't get fired if you provide a note.
Actually the clinics now start charging
for notes because people were abusing!

he works 12 hours a day six days a week
with no sick or personal time? that's just

back to a job like that.

Oh sandy... I'm so sorry!
I hope that stupid man gives Rob his job
back, but he shouldn't have to put up with
a situation like that. If nothing else
this may be better for Rob after all.
That man sounds like one hell of a
power-tripping douche bag.
Also, I didn't know that you were looking
to get a reversal done. I'm SURE it'll
all turn out okay! Insurance companies do
not have the right to tell a loving mother
that she will not be allowed to have more
children But
really though, I hope the transition (if
you end up having to make one) goes well.
If not then there are always payment
plans!
