I’ve been away from work fore it is that i am hurt,
They’re angry at me because i Inconvenience them.
I’m so sorry that i’m in pain, I won’t let it happen again,
I have been there for seventeen years, i do not call in sick.
Christmas season is almost here and there is too much work,
Because they count on me to do most of it, now i am a jerk.
I thought that after all this time out there someone would care,
This is not the way it is, I am now the enemy at hand.
I hurt my back, i hurt my leg, I’m losing many things,
They took my Insurance and gave a few bucks, they call us family.
My attorney told me to take it easy and relax,
Without a dollar in my pocket there is no chance of that.
All i wanted was a little help, now a full on war,
A place i went to many days, now i sit at home fighting to survive.

How are you now?

Remember business, especially big business, is all about profit. Talk of family is purely PR even if some along the way start with good intentions. Those who rose to the top of business did so by looking out for number one first and foremost. I feel for you but the situation you describe doesn’t surprise me at all. Good luck.
I grew up with the president of the company. thanks for reading.

Wow can I relate to this! I was “terminated” because of my health issues. I hope you are feeling better and the stress has lessened for you!
