[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 237498, member: 1550"] It does stink, as one who has had trouble in the workplace due to daunting learning disabilities. But, trust me, minorities are not necessarily protected. Yes, they have recourse, but they also have to hire an attorney (at the same cost as anyone else) and prove that they were fired due to their race or sexual orientation or religion. It's NOT an easy task. My family is part Jewish and a very religious Orthodox Jewish member kept getting fired because his religion says he can't work after the Sabbath. He was still repeatedly fired and the courts ruled against him because the companies all said he was fired for "incompetence." I'm sorry you have to go through this. As one who had struggled so much in the workforce (and am happily early retired), I still remember how small I felt. I was so powerless, and, really, nobody upstairs cared about anyone's feelings. They didn't even know us...I hope it all works out. [/QUOTE]
