Good luck to you!
I actually am in sales...retail management to be specific...so no union for me. It's okay though...I don't know that I will be able to hire an employment attorney right off the bat until/unless my work comp settlement goes through without a hitch as that's an upfront cost that I may just not be able to afford. But the EEOC doesn't cost a thing so at least I can get the ball rolling with that and I have time before I would have to get an employment lawyer involved. The claim needs to be filed with the EEOC first anyway so maybe by the time I feel I need to get the lawyers involved I will have the financial means to employ one.

At any rate...I will fight them with whatever means I can and hope for the best. Even if I lose (big comany vs little old me)...at least I will know I gave it every effort. In the mean time I suppose I should start working on the old resume (been working for this company since I was 17...almost 11 years) and see what kind of work is out there for me. Good times...
