I'm 12weeks pregnant and 2 weeks ago I decided to let my supervisor know that I was expecting, she wasn't okay with it as I am newly hired there..a week went by and she decided to make up some BS and terminated me yesterday..I'm so pissed, the only reson she gave me was I wasnt fitting in which is all lie a

mommyof3girls

This happen to me when I found out I was prego w my first. Sometimes it really sucks being a woman. Congrats on baby tho. Sorry about what happen w work.

G&EsMama

I would sue! Yea but thats sucks. Did you feel like you werent fitting in?

sands3

I'm sorry! That's just wrong

MyLove2

Sorry hun but I would sue them...

MyLove2

It's not allowed for them to do that..

ExcitedForOctober

Isn't that against the law?

MyLove2

That's what I hear

crystaldawn0830

Althought it may be against the law...it would cost her a ton of money to even fight it. Most likely she wouldn't win because they would lie and say other reasons. Since she's probably still in her probation period they have a huge advantage! Hate to hear this for you...but all things happen for a reason. I hope something better comes along for u and fast!

MyLove2

@crystaldawn0830 oh yeah true!!

G&EsMama

Yea that is true if you were in a probation period but if not they would most likely settle out of court and offer her a check to go away companies dont have time and dont want to deal with court cases

@Graysonsmommy I do fit in, I worked at a fertility clinic as a medical assistant, I did my externship hours there(200) hours, when I got to 100 hours she offered me the position saying I walked in that clinic knowing exactly what I was doing, then about 2weeks ago I told her I was prego and her response was "u just got hired this can't happen" I thought she was joking finally yesterday she told me I'm sorry u ain't fitting in.and all my coworkers was surprised especially one of the girl was like she's not firing the people that should be fired.

starrxoxo9

You got fired from a FERTILITY clinic for being PREGNANT?? That's just ridiculous. As much as it sucks, you're better off. You don't wanna work for someone like that!

mommy2two

@Starrxoxo9 yea I just wished she had a better reason to let me go....and I'm sad because I got attached to some of the patients.

Ah no ....wrongful termination definitely. Even with a probationary period there's typically legal protocol employers must follow often including verbal/written warning acknowledged and signed by employee. Check the requirements for your state.

Mijita

I would file a grievance with the labor board for discrimination. If you were not a qualified candidate, the employer should not have hired you after your externship -- it's misleading. It's too obvious a termination after disclosing your current maternal status.

G&EsMama

I agree with @mijita

mommy2two

@Mijita I'm not sure how to go about filing for grieving with labor for discrimination...@Ourlittlenugget I live in Washington state.
