Hello guys -
I just want to give all you part timers a head up. In early March my wife was going to have surgery. And I had to take sometime off. My supervisor said it was ok. So the 2nd week in March I took off the day of the day before her operation. I was out the 2 weeks I like I had told my Supervisor and when I tried to go back I was told I was fired.
I have a hearing in the next week about it - and I am sure I will get my job back. But it makes me question UPS morals. I do understand that I should have filled out the FMLA form now. And even asked if I need to do anything and my Sup, said no it should be ok.
If you have to take off for any Medical reason Fill out an FMLA form your HR. This will take care of a lot of stress!!!
