Thank you all. To answer your questions, my husband would love to work for himself. He is a very talented carpenter. But tools and those things are very expensive so right now he's just settling. And a for talking to a higher up at his work, That's who said that. They got their wires criss crossed and one said yes he did call and the human resources girl said well i did'nt get the message. Same old same old. He has Crohn's and when he gets a job he tells them right off, "I have this diesese. At times it will cause me to miss work and sometimes I might have to be hospitalized." He always makes that clear so they kno when the hire him that if he has to miss 3 days due to a flare then they know it's his Crohn's not him. But this is the 2nd job he has lost like this. He will work there for 8 months or so with no problem then have a flare and end up in the hospital and they fire him. For not calling. When I know the peopel have been notified. It's all ridiculous really. If they already know he is going to be sick at some point then why go through the trouble of hiring him only to fire him 8-9 months later? It makes me so mad
