We've been thrown a curve ball this morning that we didn't see coming. My daughter has been working at a private school as an office manager for the last few years. The person she works for is volatile, a typical ADHD personality. This morning she fired my daughter for paying an employee 13 hours of vacation time she had left (and had been saving to use on maternity leave). She swears she told my daughter not to do this when obviously if she'd told her not to, she wouldn't have done it. This behavior is bizarre as two of the admin people are out on maternity leave at the moment and two others are on month long vacations, and Jen was holding down the fort by herself. Jen is the only one there who knows how to run payroll so I'm not sure what they are going to do on Friday. I suspect no one will get paid.
My daughter is a single mother of a handicapped child. So she doesn't have a husband to fall back on. Luckily we're around to pitch in.
I'm hoping and praying that something better will come from this. I know she'll find another job soon and with school summer vacation almost upon us (Wednesday), she won't have to worry about where Megan will be after school (she'll be with us).
So please add your prayers to ours to wish something better to come along for Jen, and soon. Thanks.
