Those can be pretty lengthy.


You likely spent a month going through the process, getting interviewed by everyone to determine if you are a good culture fit. And they kicked you out for taking a couple of days without even seeing how chronic it will be?

Something isn’t adding up.

(Not saying you are lying….but there’s an element to the equation here that you aren’t saying. Perhaps a probationary period that doesn’t allow absences in an early time frame?)

You’re a physical liability on the job. I’d say you have a reason for wrongful termination but I’m sure physical details of the job were given to you.

Even let him know when the MRI was done, not that the last part matters.

It's becoming clearer why you were let go.

Burst fracture?
Wtf?
Oh and by the way you don’t deadlift shite. How many discs fused?
And yeah the nerve that fuels sciatica is the one they take care of in the nerve bundle going through your spine.
So frick off liar

Nothing like that. I think the fact that he essentially hired what he thinks is a cripple scared him off.

If I take two days off in the first two weeks of work, he’s gotta be thinking WTF and is this going to be regular.

I think I'd have done my damnedest to show up in pain and wait for them to tell me to go home. I did that once in my younger years when I had a staph infection. Worked perfectly. I didn't get paid for a few days, but I kept that job until I got promoted later on.

The manager might seem harsh, but it's possible he started off nice and was trampled by dozens or hundreds of employees taking advantage of his kindness and making his job miserable so he has no patience for a surprise excuse anymore.

I gotta agree, in fact IMHO I think we need more quick hooks these days, because from what I see in my industry, employees will push the envelope as much as you allow them to and beyond reason.

I am good with the hard line, may be some collateral damage but from my view not a lot - it will be mostly legit.

Start date was 22 Jan

missed two days the first week



I would have fired you too

Know a Baw who owns a construction company who will not hire military. Said he made the mistake of hiring some Seabees early in his career and they were the laziest workers he’s ever hired. Different cultcha Baw.

I’m in the corporate world and don’t like working with them. Have to be told to do shite, everything is black and white, etc. I’m generalizing of course.
