Being Fired

Within the last few months, I have not been the best role model at my job. I was the Janitor at Shady Shoals. I did like the job. Good pay, good medical coverage, even planned on retiring in a few years. But here lately, after my sons death, I have not been very stable. I constantly find myself tired and depressed. A few times I have fallen asleep in the janitors closet. My boss caught me once, he walked in on me asleep in a tub. He gave me warning. I did some therapy with a therapist. I felt mentally stable after that. Unfortunately, when I came to work one day, I had learned about a toilet that exploded in a restroom. They asked if anybody would be willing to clean it up. A few attempted to clean it up but couldn't make it past the door the stench was so bad. They said who ever cleaned it would get a pay raise. I went in. I didn't make it in the restroom 3 feet before I slipped an fell. I was unconscious. My manager walked in and thought I was sleeping. He said I was fired for sleeping on the job. So, unfortunately I no longer have a job.
