I found out that my application for Unemployment will have to go through an appeals process, that could take 3-4 weeks, maybe longer, to get benefits.

I did send an email to the attorney that did our wills, asking if she does employment discrimination cases.

My boss is claiming that I didn't call in to tell them I was sick, and he's using that as the excuse for firing me. But I did call in. I called and said "I'm not doing very well, I'm not sure when I will be back." I thought that meant I was out sick until further notice. He is saying I should have called in every single morning to tell him I was still sick.

Oh, and he's also upset that I didn't notify him 2 times in July when I just left the office in the middle of the day without saying a word. Why did I do that? I was on my way home to COMMIT SUICIDE. So notifying my boss wasn't exactly on my to-do list.

One possible bit of good news - I kept my employee handbook, and there is no official policy on any of this written in the book.

But even if I get unemployment, even if I get a lawsuit, even if I get disability...none of those will happen for several months. So how do I pay the bills in the meantime???!
