Folks, thanx for your deeply empathetic support.
I am gonna tackle a few questions here, if you guys don't mind.First, well it was really a very, very crummy job. (And that is being nice.:-) The pay was *crap*, and I had to work steady nights. So, maybe it is a blessing in hiding.
I could go the 'legal' route, but I think it is more hassle then it is worth. I got a bit of a feeling I was "set up" as a "fall-guy", but I honestly have no desire to bother with them.
I just really would like to go with a job that is in line with my values and beliefs, which is in social work, and which I have a degree in. Yes, I have had jobs that where really nasty in the past, everything from wiping someones bum in a group home, to facing physical danger, but I was always paid well. The job I got fired from was a "nothing" job, really, as a cleaner, and the only reason I took it was to buy some time while I figure out my career.
So, like many of us on here, I gotta hussle and hit the job-hunting pavement. I still don't feel quite "mentally healthy", but I have come some ways.
OK..enough of me yacking...thanks so much all for your support. :-)
Sincerely,
Jay
