Resources For Human Development

I was hired to work there as an assistant director a few years back. My first day on the job, my dad had a heart attack so I went to Michigan to the hospital where he was in a coma, with the office’s permission. He ended up dying two weeks later. After the funeral, I returned to Philadelphia (two weeks after my start date) to a letter in the mailbox stating that I had been terminated from my position, which made my bereavement even more difficult. They didn’t even have the decency of a phone call or any expression of sympathy or to even ask if my dad had survived the heart attack. This was the worst employment experience of my life and was so difficult to get over. It seems strange that they spent two months and three interviews to hire me, but terminated me for missing two weeks to attend to my dying father. A cruel, heartless employer.

RHD Is the best human services agency to work for:) hands down.
