I kind of thought it was we will let you go when we have someone else to 
replace you. So, you can stay and help us out till then, but after that see ya. 
So, Amanda went ahead and cut them short on that and started at the other place 
today.

Yes but their deal of her staying there till she finds other employment sounds 
like, “we don’t want you, yet in reality we really don’t have that much on you 
to get rid of you uf chalenged by a State labor board.”  

 

Hight standards are one thing, but if you aren’t given procedural information 
in training and then that is used against you that gives her something to stand 
on.  However, in reality, most things do go by last name first, it’s more the 
rare exception that a list is organized using the first name first.  But that 
is something simple and petty.  I think maybe she’s offended the powers that be 
by her own standards of what she does and probably caught someone higher up in 
their mistakes along the way and now they get revenge.  If that is the case 
they’d better cover their trail good.

She has put in 4 applications last night. We are hoping and praying for 
positive results. I agree that Amanda may have made some mistakes, but I think 
more so they are unable to stand good on the fact that they would sign off on 
her internship. So, when they have an opportunity to dismiss her they take the 
opportunity. One of the grounds for Amanda accepting the position was that they 
would sign off on her internship. The employer said they have never done this, 
but if it is allowed they would do it. The employer failed to realize that this 
means Amanda will need to be doing certain tasks related to her degree. So, why 
not take the quickest and easiest way out of the situation. I still think that 
based on her recent diagnosis she should disclose if for no other reason to 
point out to the employer that it may not have been her fault the mistakes that 
were made. According to things I am reading even if they continue with the 
course of action that they are taking they cannot refuse to talk to her about 
the disability and possible solutions that do not cause undue hardship. I did 
not realize until doing some research that this was even a condition covered 
under the ADA, but when looking at my school’s website it says that one of the 
things that they cover on the disability website was ADHD. Being that they 
offer services I started doing some research and low and behold it is covered. 
So, we will see what happens. I imagine that they will continue the process and 
htat is ok because we can compensate even if they tell her to take a hike on 
Monday morning without even getting into the house money set aside. If anything 
the house money will pay for her benefits. One of the reasons they said that 
she needed to look for another job is because during her 3 days of training 
when she started she was not told that names needed to be listed last name and 
then first. So, she has been putting names in first and then last. To me this 
sounds petty, but I told Amanda she should be careful when she started because 
of some of the things she would come home and tell me sounded like a person 
with unrelenting standards. Oh well, when one door closes another one opens. 
However, please keep us in your prayers during this transition.

Well glad you hadn’t jumped right in to one then.  

 

Hopefully it won’t take long before she can find herself another and better 
job.

We Will not be buying a house anytime soon so it seems. Today the bottom 
dropped right out from under us with the news that Amanda would be losing her 
job. Please keep us in your prayers. Talk to you later.
