    Don't quit. Let them fire you and make them put the reason in writing. Also, it's probably too late to tell you to keep a diary of 'events' like the ones you have been telling us about. It would be good to be able to confirm those events by recording the days they happen and checking it to see it is consistent when people are present at work...

    Try to look on the bright side. You are unhappy. If they fire you, then at least you will be away from all that stress and there is the chance a new door will open for you with a job that truly appreciates all you have to offer. I can tell from your posts that you are a compassionate person who cares for others.

    I wish you all the best for the future.

    Don't quit. Make them fire you. Check with your state's unemployment. Ours is horrible and low here but even part time workers can get a little bit.

    I hope that you will have the strength to pull yourself out of the situation that your employer put you in... You don't have to work there... I was in a job that I had to resign from and let me tell you that it was the best thing that happened to me.. You need to take care of yourself, physically and mentally, and this employer is taking it all from you....

    Why did you quit? After reading your report, I'm sure the people who investigate fires simply want to talk to you. They shouldn't tell you what it is about so you don't go talk to other employees about the issue.

    It seems this job causes you entirely too much stress and moving on my be in your best interest anyway.

    It seems that most of us here believe you shouldn't have quit. You should have waited to see what the meeting was about. I'm sure that what you went through with the fire could have been used as leverage to persuade them to let you stay on. Even the Salvation Army is required to follow employment laws.

    You don't want the job, anyway. Sounds lousy. I hope you've been looking for a new job. Let them lay you off. Hopefully, you can get unemployment until you find a better position. Good luck.

    I am sad to hear that you quit. People sue large companies/non-profits all the time and WIN!! You don't hear about because there is usually a privacy agreement signed at settlement.

    I hope this works out for the best for you!
