well...mine is sad tragic story like dont know why this happen to me. I didnt know the history of the company but i heard from my Supervisor, that our company did ask people to go when they found out she is pregnant. So i tried to ask HR, HR die die said NO SUCH CASE, and i m the 1st in the company who is mummy to be. Then before that, my boss told me ''MARK MY WORDS, I WILL NEVER GET A REPLACEMENT EVENTHOUGHT U GO FOR MATERNITY LEAVE'' and ''all the people here is my witness'' this type of people, who always said mark their words end up did not even promised, i hope he get his karma soon.
soon, one of this new FT was hired work as customer service in our company, and when they found out she was pregnant, the company cook up few excuses to ask her to leave. I obviously was worried for myself. I do overtime for them, because they said, shorthanded, need to rush to advertisement to be printed. My appraisal was good. Then one unfine day, my water bag broke, and i didnt know what happened, i tried to ask my colleague for help...and the answer i get is ''HAR..I DO KNOW LEH'' then another person said ''I NOT A MUMMY YET'' well..M1 receiption was down, i dono who to contact, last minute panic, dont know what to do..i use company phone to call for my gynea and my husband. gynea asked me to rushed down to KKH. that time, since no one is helping me, i WALKED all the way from my office to take a cab, for 20mins! CAN U IMAGINE, water kept leaking while i walk..and i cried. Waited 10mins, and rushed to KKH and the beloved KKH staff, i asked her for direction, she told me to go to B1 which is their obituary. =_=''
to but the story short, i went back to work 1 day earlier, i emailed my supervisor few times, and sms my colleagues. so, on that day they told me i be sitting in meeting room, cos boss not around, they cant make the arrangement and someone is sitting in my seat. so they passed things for me to do..and do..nothing was mentioned. next day, boss come ignored me..dont know why. and in the afternoon, finally he told me 'ITS TIME, FOR US TO PART, COS WE DIDNT KNOW WHETHER U WANT TO WORK AS FULL TIMER MOM OR STILL KEEN ON JOB'' i felt like fell like from high rised building. i did update my supervisor about my status. but..i kept quiet because in my mind i can lodge a complain to MOM. so i accept and i request for letter of termination. since you asked me to go, there should a a valid reason. My appraisal was good, i did OT as what you told, i didnt skip work but end up i got this.
But MOM cant help me, they rejected me. I was so helpless and sad and fell into depression for 4-6 months. I couldnt pick myself up. I was so depress, everytime i looked at my baby, i cry..and end of the day i realised the lady who took over my job was my supervisor BFF. and supervisor was my boss bootlicker.
and it really took few months for me to stand up.
