Okay AF, I need some advice/opinions/reactions to this. I was at work today and I was busting my back. I got a text that my father had a heart attack (It was only a minor one and he will be just fine). I proceeded to inform my boss that I needed to leave so I could be with my father. He allowed this. Now here's the screwed up part. I called my boss to say thank you for allowing me to leave. After thanking him, he fired me for screwing up his day. Now I had ALWAYS done the best work I could for this man and I never left until what I had to do was done, and sometimes stayed late to help another co-worker complete their task(s) if they were behind on the day's quota.
Was his termination of my employment justified? Or is this a wrongful termination?
