I couldn’t believe that the HVAC company just fired me as they did.
If there would have been a really good reason for firing me, then I would have understood.
I have been an HVAC technician working with them for ten years, and I never had trouble with any of the other HVAC technicians or the owner since I started working here. I loved my job with this HVAC company, and I didn’t plan on going anywhere else. However, last year, the HVAC company was sold to a new owner under the conditioners that the HVAC technicians that were still working here would get a job. The new owner of the HVAC company agreed, but we could immediately tell that this new owner didn’t like us. He had a completely different style of leadership, and there were a lot of conflicts. Since I have been here longer than any of the other HVAC technicians, I became the focal point for all of his aggression. At around the same time, I began struggling with health problems. It wasn’t serious at the time, but I knew that I would be required to miss some work. However, the owner of the HVAC company told me that I would lose my job if I missed work. I continued working as an HVAC technician and wasn’t able to make all of my appointments. One day, the condition got serious, and I had to have emergency surgery. When I got back to the HVAC company, I lost my job for failing to show up on the day of the surgery. I couldn’t believe it.
