Thanks.
As suspected, that was exactly what happened at work. My boss told me that I "could not come back" at 7 hours. I told him I couldn't afford it, and he told me to "cut my expenses". I have. To the bone. That's not the point.
I told him that I had kept him apprised, told him that when I was referred to Speech Therapy it was for 8 weeks and ended Wed - and that I would meet with him and let him know the outcome.
He tried to tell me that he juggled his entire company around me - he didn't. I learned all the new software for his new company he switched to, helped out with the conversion to the new company, did my job in the 6 hours that I was there.
I think he sensed trouble because he started saying that it's because of the new company that my hours are lower, but then he turned around and asked why it was taking so long for a project to be done - because I need more hours, that's why! Plus he's added another person for me to help out, and expects all this to be done as if I was there 8 hours.
I had to see my family attorney Fri night, and he said that this guy is skating on thin ice. He said that there definitely should be some protections for me. My atty. asked if anyone else's hours had been cut due to the new company and I told him no.
I am going to call the state Labor Board tomorrow and see what they say. If they can't help me maybe they can point me in the right direction.
Nice thing to do to someone right before Christmas...
