What is the name of your state?Michigan
I am in need of some advice. My husband's boss just called me and asked me to tell my husband to, "not bother coming back into work". My husband works as a laborer, connecting field drainage tiles. His job requires him to move around from place to place.
For the last 6 months, my husband has had severe headaches. My husband was referred by his physician to get physical therapy, however, his boss said that if he did this during work hours (or needed to leave work early for therapy), that he wouldn't have a job. So, my husband did not get physical therapy. Today, my husband is scheduled for a MRI. My husband's boss has had knowledge of this appointment for 3 weeks. Last night, my husband called his boss and asked him if he could take the day off. His reason for this is because the MRI is over an hour away, his work is aprox. 45 minutes to the job site, and the appointment was set for 12:15p.m. My husband gets very dirty at work and would not be able to go to his appointment without coming home first and showering. My husband's boss told my husband to come into work, help move equipment to a different job site, and then he could go. My husband went into work this morning and did this. Once he was there, the foreman told my husband to start laying tile. My husband said that he had to go, and left. Before my husband even got home, his boss called me and asked me to tell my husband to not bother coming back into work. Some other facts. . .
My husband has been late to 2 of his other medical appointments because the boss was not willing to let him off in time. Aprox. 4 months ago, my husband was, "fired" because he did not go in on a Saturday. He had just started working for this company again and did not know that it was required. (The year before when he worked there, Saturday's were optional) - This also happened immediately after my husband told the boss that he had an interview with UPS. And, last week. . . my husband and his boss were working together, along with a couple of other companies. My husband's boss made the remark, "You mess up like that and we wont be renewing your green card!". (My husband is Puerto Rican) Can anything be done??? Please, any advise would be greatly appreciated.
Thank You.
