i don't know what to say, yet.

why were you (wrongfully) terminated?

is there an appeal process?

was your termination r/t noncompliance w/policy & procedure?

and, in your p&p, is there a series of events that needs to take place before termination?

i.e., verbal warnings, written warnings, suspension, etc.

i would need to hear more before offering my input.

I agree with Leslie, per usual. With no mention of circumstances, it's really hard to offer advice. There is, also, a difference between being unfairly fired and "wrongful termination" in a legal sense. You can be fired for a BS reason without it being legally actionable. It also depends on what state you're in, whether you're union, etc, etc, etc.

i do think bs reasons, would be less acceptable for someone who has been employed for 16 yrs, with a clean record....especially with a clean record.

working that long, there is an implied contract that states they are satisfied with employee's performance.

with her record being clean and suddenly being terminated, i have to wonder what the heck happened?

there are offenses that command immediate termination-

and then, there are offenses that warrant something much less harsh.

i'd really be curious what the employer's reason was for this terminable event.

i would go into the specifics but i am afraid!!!

lets just say that i didn't use drugs or alcohol, nor did I abandon my patient, nor did my patient suffer any negative outcome from my actions. It was based on a parents complaint that I ( i was caught off guard ) agreed with and told the truth.

sorry nothing more will be said.
