I've never been fired. I quite a few jobs years ago due to depression. My last job tried to fire me when my FMLA ran out but I still had doctors notes saying I was too sick to work so I threatened to sue them if they marked it down as being fired. I said "you can't fire me for being sick when every review I've gotten for 11 years has been glowing....it might be legal but sure isn't ethical" and they made a new term for letting me go that wasn't being "fired". So I can still claim I was never fired but they did try.

Working while sick is very hard so my heart goes out to anyone who is doing it. Being fired is low blow when it's done because of illness. (((Hugs)))
