Can an employer take my full time hours away and give them to people that work ere hires after me? This seems like race discrimination to me, also I was eligiable for a promotion but got looked over because the Nolo yee is having sexual affairs with the waitresses now half the waitresses that slept with him are supervisors. This is also gender and race discrimination. I got fired for sticking up for myself and not letting these things go on any further. What should I do next?

I was dismissed from my position without reasons because I was within my probation and they have the legal right to do so according to them. I was also targeted because of my size and age while on the job. In addition this dismiss all happened while on WSIB injury.

During my shift earlier this week my supervisor told me to get off my phone when texting my mother about a drs apt involving my pregnancy. After he continued to give me a hard time after explaining to him that it simply just me replying to my mother I asked to speak to him and my other supervisor in the back room, once being brought there I told my supervisors that I was sorry about being on my phone and explained to them that I was pregnant. He told me he wanted to speak to me in the HUman resources room in a half an hour and sent me back to work at my station. He never came back to get me to take me to Human Resources so I continued to work. Once my shift had ended I went to count my till in the back office and than spoke to me there. They than handed me a letter informing me that my employment had been terminated with three reasons being on January 2nd I left one Milk carton on the counter, On January 5th took the keys home to our till ( which I proved them to be wrong and they told me that “there’s other things they can use as exampes.” And on January 5th ( they day of my termination) I had been using my phone. I am very confused and believing that this isn’t right and was wondering if you could help me in anyway regarding what my next move should be.
