You got hurt on the job yesterday, and today you got fired? Is there a connection? You might want to talk to a lawyer, sweetie.

Welcome to the club.

I got fired 3-weeks ago.

Got to your local office of employment security, it should be wherever you have the big courthouse at in your county where you would have to go had you been callled to jury duty.

Vixen,

I agree with Caroline, if you hurt your wrist at work you definately need to see a lawyer. I don't know what workers' comp is like in Canada but I'm betting its pretty good. You should also get in writing why they are firing you. If you hurt your wrist at home and it affected your job, you should still be protected from firing and can sue.

I'm not a lawyer but you should talk to someone about your situation. A long time ago I handled workers comp claims for a big insurance company (only lasted 1 year) and saw a lot folks get screwed by their employer - as well as a chunk of folks trying to rip their employer off too.

Take Care and good luck,
