I hate my job...

First my job lowers my hours after i tell them I'm pregnant and now my boss makes me pick up his cigarette butts randomly and scrub the walls he's a very rude person and treats me like **** (been this way since I told him I'm expecting) I don't know what to do because he is working me to extreme and stressing me out like no other... trying to make me carry heavy boxes even though he knows I'm pregnant... I would contact the owner but the manager and owner are bestfriends.. don't know what to do but I'm sure he can get in a lot of trouble

Im having issues with my job since becoming pregnant .. I had severe morning sickness from week 6 to 12 and I was hospilized so I asked work cpuld they reduce my hours UNTIL I got better .. they took the **** and only gave me 2 hours a day and here I am at 25 weeks still doin 2 hours a day .. I have asked them for more hours and he has just said no and has giving others more hours .. it infuriates me it cost more for me to get to work . Then when im in work they dont seem to care that im lifting heavy boxes .. tthankfully I start maternity in 7 weeks I took it early cause I couldnt stand to be there anymore ..

Get a lite duty note from your doctor. Your boss will have to follow the doctors instructions or put you on disability.

Start writing everything he is doing down. It is illegal, it is the law that he provide you with easier tasks now. You need to go to the owner or call better business bureau or whoever is in charge of that. It is also against the law for him to retaliate if you go above his head for help. If he does retaliate write it all down make are you have something to reference to.

Stand up for yourself!! He can't MAKE you do a d*** thing! Tell him you refuse to do these things the worst he can do is fire you, believe it or not that would actually benefit you because if you get fired they have to pay your unemployment..
