What is the name of your state? Texas
I work for the state in TX, I have a medical issue, my employer was well aware of this problem and that I would be needing to take off work for it, I had not missed excessive work before hand and on tuesday I called into my work to say I would be absent so I could get into a MAP program for insurance so i could get the treatment i needed later that day. I was told this was ok and later that day my boss called and fired me and specifiacly referanced my termination due to being absent saying I had no desire to come into work, would this not be wrongful termination? I have records of my punch times to support my absences.
