I'm currently pregnant and jobless.
I think my last job traumatized me the most. It was only my second day of work and I was at my first trimester of 6 weeks. At the point I didn't know I'm pregnant and explain I was nausea/ vomiting because of the long bus journey. My colleague made a joke saying I'm pregnant and I laugh it off. That afternoon, I was told to leave. Heck it was not even two days, more like one and a half day.
Been jobless ever since, as first trimester I was being sick. Now I am entering second trimester and feeling slight better, hubby hint me I should really start job search due to finance, doesn't matter if it's part time or contract because no one wants to hire a pregnant woman fulltime. (What's the point of govt wanting us to give birth when no company wants a pregnant worker!?)
I guess my greatest concern is the huge gaps of unemployment in my work history, and I fear/ hate interviews. Not to mention there are so many horror stories of pregnant ladies ask to leave.
I guess I should gather up my courage but there is this fear.... is there any one in the same boat as me?
Thank you for hearing me out.
