Food thief DUmmy gets canned

[Karin]

Oh yes.  We've discussed this case before, several months back.  What it was, was that she was just a shitty waitress.  Always slacking off on her tables, making others pick up the work, and blaming it on her bi-polarness.  Getting written up all the time (pristine record, indeed!)  We were pretty much doing over/unders on when she'd be fired.  I'm surprised she lasted this long, truly. 

[VivisMom]

To be fair, being bi-polar doesn't preclude someone from being intelligent, wise, successful or anything else. It's very possible to be bi-polar and become anything you want. It may just take one helluva lot more work.

Well there you go...we all know work is to DUmmies what garlic is to vampires.

[DumbAss Tanker]

My record was pristine, PRISTINE for 8 months until I divulged my bi-polar, it has been hell ever since.

Well, 'Pristine' except that little thingie about there being at least two other disciplinary write-ups, anyway.

Well, look what the DUmmies have for role models, sir.  Little Timmy Geithner's record was pristine except for that little misunderstanding about who was responsible for paying his taxes, and look where he is today...

Did he finally get shitcanned?

No; that's why the DUmmy is so incredulous.  She wasn't even as corrupt as Tiny Timmy was, and he's still got a job, and she doesn't.

I just got fired over a french fry!
 True story. I worked for a local casino. Managment, cooks, etc were allowed to eat whenever, wherever, whatever, they chose but the food servers are not. I have been busted a couple of times before for toast...yes, toast. Today it was a french fry.

I was told I had had too many disciplinary actions (write ups) therefore, I was fired. I started there in Dec. of '08. My record was pristine, PRISTINE for 8 months until I divulged my bi-polar, it has been hell ever since.

I am dumb

41. Make and keep detailed records of what happened when.
   
Who, what, where, write down all details of confrontations/reprimands/incidents.
Go talk to an employment lawyer who specializes in Federal EEOC/Labor Law.

You notified them of your disability and they were supposed to make reasonable accommodations; apparently they did NOT make reasonable accommodations and fired you in retaliation for your disclosure.

A lot of employers get in trouble because they discriminate, and then when they are called upon it, by the employee filing a complaint with the EEOC, they retaliate by treating the employee worse. That means they just got two allegations filed against them instead of one.

PLEASE talk to a lawyer and see what they say. I used to be a court reporter(the person that bangs on a stenograph machine sitting in front of the witness stand) -- did it for twenty years -- and this kind of stuff happens all the time to employers on EEOC cases. They just make it worse by retaliating.

Full disclosure: Yes, I am a lawyer, I have a Juris Doctor, but I do not practice law nor do I play one on TV.

45. Thank you for your suggestions.
   
I am getting my HR file on Monday then will file a complaint with the EEOC on-line, and let them initially run with the ball. We'll see where it goes from there.

Thank you again

Am doing my darndest to be good to myself. Had my first anxiety attack in months, about 1 this morning. It was a doooooooooozie, I tell ya. Will not/CANNOT let this affect me like this.

I do plan to file a complaint with the EEOC then let it go and see what they can do.

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to you and yours :hug:

I had thought that she said she didn't want to sue or get lawyers involved?  Mob enthusiasm must have encouraged her.

The DUmb ones are easily swayed.

Nah, it's just like the rest of her tale. She's lying.
