What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)?
This is in Illinois, and my boss threatened me that I have a choice of going to school, or continuing to work for the company. This stems from a new schedule being made for all employees, and conflicting with school that I was already registered for, and my boss already knew about. Previously, another employee was given a schedule specifically to work around their school schedule. There are other incidents in which my schedule routinely changed every week, and everyone else was given a fairly set schedule. I don't know if I have anything going for me, I feel discriminated against, but reading this forum seems like I don't have much leg to stand on. I was also asked if I was a union steward in an email with my boss regarding conditions for employees. I was fired because I missed too many days due to them changing my schedule, and calling in for going to school. Do I have a case to receive unemployment, as it was denied to me? Do I have a bigger case of work place harassment? Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
