Don't let your work know anything about your private life
Certified Nurse Assistant (CNA) - (City withheld for privacy), Oregon, United States
I was hired through a long term care facility. everything semed fine, the people were nice and the co-workers friendly. then the company found out I did not have a wife but am a same sex couple. As soon as they found out this information the write-ups started. not a day went by after this that the bosses didnt find some excuse to write me up for things I was never even told about. This went on for about 2 months before I was eventually fired. the reason for firing: "You care too much for the residents"

This company was not only unfair, and cruel about a first time CNA working at their facility but downright discriminatory towards me just because i happen to have a boyfriend. DO NOT!!!! under any circumstances let your employer have private information on you unless you are willing to have them use your information against you.
