no matter what i have their asses i think. if they refuse meal breaks of any kind but give them to everyone else i can claim pregnancy discrimination for not being treated the way everyone else is treated and not being allowed to do what the handbook says i'm allowed to do.
if they fire me, i've got a case yet again to sue them for firing me for being pregnant.
if they harass me for questioning my lack of breaks at work i have harassment charges.
they have to at least consider my requests and do their best to accommodate me because i fall under a disabled person legally. and because everyone else already gets it and i am left out. |
i will also talk to my dr. about a dr's note ordering a meal break to eat for health reason. aka hypoglycemia. i have always had it. my mother has it. it's not officially diagnosed but i'm sure i could probably get it officially diagnosed.
