| KINDERFELD 07/03/20 5:17:03 PM #26: | In my mid twenties, I worked for a mortgage company doing loan processing. My boss(staunch jehovah witness) hired me knowing I was in college and gave me a permanent fixed schedule to accommodate my classes. I worked like that for over a year until she found out I was gay. After that, she changed my work schedule and told me if it conflicted with my school, maybe I needed to find another job that didn't. I started only attending classes when I could just so I could keep my job. Then once she saw I was still thriving, she started to complain about the number of loans I would process a day. This turned into daily harassment from her. I knew she was going to find some reason to fire me and sadly, Florida didn't have laws that protected gays at their jobs back then. Luckily the whole mortgage industry collapsed and she along with myself and everyone at my job, got laid-off. --- the polyfilla way look strong in the weakness of the gaps ... Copied to Clipboard! |
