What is the name of your state? North Dakota
Long story short, been harrassed by Native American Commissioner (I am white) regarding my job, and making false reports of my being rude, and giving incorrect legal advice. All of which will be printed in the local paper under the County Minutes. (slander? Defamination of character?) Now, I am being asked to work 8 hrs a day. When hired, I was given set 20 hrs a week by my direct supervisor. They knew at that time I did not want to work f/t and could not work f/t. This commissioner knows I am unable to work full time and has put in writing I am needed 8 hrs a day and I am to work that. I sent a letter to them saying I would not, could not and was hired for the 20 hrs a week. And included a copy of something to that effect from my personnel file.
I feel The commissioner is trying to make me quit, I think that she will tell me I must resign since I cannot fullfill the 8 hrs a day.
What if I refuse to resign. Im sure they may then fire me. Can I get unemployemnt if they force me to resign? Or if they fire me? I refuse to quit. I do a good job what Im doing, and they know it. It doesnt matter, the Commissioner had a personal problem with me. Or, could this be a matter of discrimination, even tho there have been no racial words spoken?
Any advice would be appreciated.
