where to look to for hope

[Kaprika]

ok...well this is looking bad.........

you know how i posted erlier saying my back problems have been getting FAR worse and its been making work almost impossible?
well..i tried to ask my manager if he could stick to giving me the 5 hour shifts rather than the 7, you know..since im becoming more and more crippled now, and i just called in for this weeks scedual and the Asst manager says im not ON the schedual this week...
...so now im panicking...
i wasnt straight up terminated, but not schedualing me at all is a bad sighn..it means he is THINKING about it..
and i have bills to pay..i cant NOT have a job, and getting a new one is no option for me...
i would be legaly obliged to inform my new boss im crippled, but with no doctors note they wouldnt accept me...id be a liability.

im trying to get well, i applied for low income health insurance, but thats gonna take a while to get back to me...almost 45 days..so i cant just "get well" and get right back to work.
im crippled and they know it..i cant hide it anymore, i shuffle when i should be rushing. i wince to pick up the bags of trash and they can see im in agony by the end of the night.
i have a phone bill...car insurance...rent...i cant NOT be employed
....im scared..whats going to happen..

explain the situation to your boss. IM sure theyd understand and help you out.  Why dont you have a doctors note?

She probably doesn't have Health Insurance and just a simple visit to the doctor without any Health Insurance is expensive.

The best thing you can do is just try to relax and stay calm.
The stress will only worsen your back condition so try to meditate, take a hot bath, draw, listen to music, etc.
Of course, this being a huge concern this won't just stay away from your mind but you gotta handle it as best as possible.
For the mean time try applying for other jobs now, like places nearby you can just sign up for online and see how it goes from there.

did EITHER of you read my whole post or just skim it?

it tells you that i dont have health insurance and im trying to apply for low income gov asisted health insurace but it wont get back to me for 45 days, and that i CANT get a new job. cause they would take one look at my crippled ass and say no.
so i cant get a doc. note, ive ALREADY talked to my manager about it..thats WHY im not getting hours now, and no doc note means nobody would hire me BECAUSE if i get even more injured on the job they could be held accountable and they want a note saying
that its ok for me to work

-_-

I wish I could make you a citizen of my place, it'd make things a lot easier...
Sadly, I don't know enough to help in any way. But I wish you the best.

maybe  theres not a lot of work right now. how long have you been working there for ? oh and if he understands then tell him you need your job because you have bills to pay.

everyone has 25-37 hours right now but me...

ive been there for...nine months now..and its not his responsibility to employ me, EVERYONE has bills, if that was a valid excuse for employment then NOBODY would be fired.
its the employment world..its a hard one

Well, I already stated that you probably don't have Health Insurance had you read my post correctly.

Like I said previously you could always look online for any other job.
Also you never know, some jobs might accommodate for you if you ask and explain your temporary situation.

Never know until you try.

[Kaprika]

no, i knew you said i didnt have health insurance..that was the the person that posted before you.

you said that i could apply for a job elsewhere, to that i said i cant cause i dont have a Doc note. any proffessional buisness would require one, cause if i got hurt i could sue them for ALOT

[Kaprika]

there not free, ive already seeked out free clinics. what they DO is charge you on a sliding scale
but i have nothing to spare

[Kaprika]

WTF? Why? It says free clinic on the frickin door!

i know, i dont get it either

[icy wolf]

you live in the states right ? he cant fire you with out a resion and he has to give you a few weeks notice be for he dose

Exactly Icy. And the only advice I have is to try and see the positive of the situation no matter how bad it seems . And remember; I'll be there if you want if anything goes wrong.

Good luck,
Drakos

[Kaprika]

uh, actualy. he CAN fire me. his reasoning would be that i am a liability, and at safety risk, and that i dont "do my job to the best of my ability"
trust me...its not hard to fire someone and make UP something, or just take something and blow it out of proportion.

hell, ive been fired for complaining about sexual harrassment
ive been fired for being excited to clock out at the end of the day
ive even been fired for confusing my work schedual with someone elses one time accidentaly

[icy wolf]

cant you ask him if theres other work there that you can do ?
