I Was Fired
I was fired while on maternity leave
Escrow Officer - (City withheld for privacy), Arizona, United States
Be careful of your current employer and/or immediate supervisor. I worked for this company for 16 years. My monthly numbers were the same as every other Escrow Officer at the company that had an assistant. I, however, did not have an assistant. Apparently, it turns out, that my immediate supervisor had a personal problem with me for a long time and found a way to terminate me. He refused to hire me an assistant, stating that corporate would not allow it (I found out was a lie), while telling me I had to keep the same monthly numbers as my peers (who had assistants), knowing that I could not possibly do this for long and would eventually fail. While on maternity leave, he decided this was the time to get rid of me and asked the human resources manager to advise me that I would not be able to return to work. 2 weeks later, my immediate supervisor finally answered my phone calls to tell me to come in and speak with him which he said "I am asking you not to come back". With not a reason for dismissal. What could I do? I agreed. Why would I work for someone who made it impossible for me to work there and under constant stress? Life is not worth that. There are other better jobs. And I am sure that the higher managers or corporate never knew what happened. Their big loss!!!!
