Fired for 2nd time? Husband ..

Anyone ever been fired twice? Like two times in a row? ...my husband is an amazing guy, best friend love at first sight.. he’s an attorney and was at firm for 10 years. He started calling in sick a lot after birth of our baby.. they fired him and we found out later they cleaned house and hired a bunch of young people out of school.. fast forward .. he’s unemployed for about 8 months when he finds a job at a competitor firm.. well he butted heads a lot with the people at the firm.. today he was fired after the 90 day mark.. we are shocked and devastated and I can already tell my husband is becoming depressed at the idea of picking himself up by his bootstraps and applying for jobs.. last time his depression lasted like 6-8 months.. I’m so worried.. he ALSO just told me he is about to have to file for bankruptcy... we thank goodness don’t share a lot and my credit is nearly perfect but geeze.. he has like credit card debt and student loans... said he’s going to file chapter 13.. anyone else had a serious of crazy life events hit them all at once ? Did it work out ? Any advice or stories much appreciated

Don’t call in sick a lot. Don’t but heads

@gregloa I was telling you to not be a dick.

You know, these are very real issues that MANY people face. Not every human will get along with others and when employers can fire you at will it leaves people with zero protection.

Family leave after having a baby is a serious issue in this country for this very reason.

Again. You don't have to be a dick.

@gregloa Also. If you are going to call me a bitch spell it all the way out?!

I am a bitch. I am not offended.

Exactly she should be kicking his a$$ telling him to find a dam job and keep it. Why would you lie to your boss by calling in sick if the real excuse was a new baby. Unemployed for 8 months sounds like a lazy mo fo to me. @JaggedLittlePill

@gregloa Who said he lied?

When you can't go to work you call in sick or you say I need to help my wife with the baby.


IT DOES NOT MATTER IN THE LEAST.


You are making assumptions based on NOTHING.

CLEARLY, no one is as perfect as you.

Go suck a fat one.

@JaggedLittlePill for 8 months? He probably can’t pass a drug test.

😂🤣😅😆 crybaby @gregloa
@gregloa

Geeze.
I'd have thought someone who was so obviously depressed himself would show a little more compassion.
