Do I have a Case?
In Feb 2005 my former boss went to my branch location and interviewed my staff asking if they could tell him of any situation where I would have violated company policy. When my staff told him that I always followed policy and procedures this did not make him happy. He started doing things like making me work 6 days a week. Not sending me updates on policies & procedures. I think so I would make a mistake. then a month or so after he visited my office my mother became hospitalized. I took no time off while she was in the hospital dying. The day she died I called my X boss and he demanded that I come into work. I asked if he understood what I just told him and his response, with total disreguard of my feelings, was, ''I need you to come in now.'' I contacted HR and told them what he did and their response was, '' I think you misunderstood him.'' The next thing I know I'm terminated. I worked there 17yrs with a spotless record, no disaplinary action or write ups. I was given unemployment benefits with no penalties, starting from day one of my termination. The company took me to unemployment court 3 times and lost each appel. Throughout all of this I had a break down and was hospitalized twice for depression. I'm am on medication to date
