My dad moved to North Dakota a few years ago and left his family back home so he could make good money. We could not go with him because the housing there was super tight and we have a decent sized family (6 of us) Things started to look up last year when my dad got a job as the shop foreman for Noble Casing. They put us in company housing so my youngest sister and my mom could come live with my dad and I. He ran the shop for the casing company and had it running literally flawlessly.
The company was doing the best they had ever done with my dad running the show. My dad not only worked for them while on the job, he managed a ton of off the job projects for Noble. He set up fundraisers, benefit parties for the company and a ton of other things. Last year around August, he was on the job working in Noble Casing's shop when he was accidentally injured. His thumb got hit by a sledgehammer and it fucking destroyed it. He is constantly doing therapy and the doctors say he will never be able to bend it again. He tore tendons, broke bones and really messed it up.
During the time it occurred, Noble was in the middle of a multi-million dollar safety awareness campaign an a severely injured employee just does not look that great. So the owner of Noble, Toby, got on his fucking knees and begged my dad not to go through workmans comp and just let them pay him the wages. My dad agreed with Toby on that. So he is off work cause he is injured and we are waiting for Toby to start paying us but he kept putting it off and putting it off. Toby then has the balls to demand a drug test from my dad knowing he was on Hydrocodone that was prescribed with a doctor's note. My dad said no because that was bullshit and he knew it. Since we were in company housing we had an older couple living below us who also worked at Noble and the washer and dryer we were supposed to share, became locked off to us.
We called Toby and he said we were not allowed to use it and fired my dad. He gave us 3 days to move out of the house. This was in the middle of fucking winter in North Dakota and he kicks us out like that. We have since been dealing the the north dakota workforce safety on this issue and it has also been a ridiculous experience. It took 2 months for them to even see the case, it took another 2 months to get a response, which they sent us a large check so we would be compensated and then voided it the next day. They said Noble had sent in some more information so they had to re evaluate the issue.
The fucked up thing about that was they had give my dad ans Noble notice's that they had to give the information before a set day and Noble sent it a few days after and they still cancel the check? Real fucked up. Okay so now the workforce sends another check for the same fucking amount and then voids it again!! Like how the fuck can this happen? My family is drug through the fucking mud and they still walk over us. I am so heated about this.
LTDR: My family got fucked so fucking hard and the officials are fucking us more.
