I am a single mother of two and work for a retail jewelry chain in CA where I was accused of a drinking problem. I was not intoxicated, nor did I have alcohol on the premises, nor was I asked to leave work. I was told I have to speak to a psychologist and sign papers stating I could be fired if I did not finish the necessary steps to fix this "problem". The psychologist stated, in a signed letter, that I do not have an alcohol problem. He did say that I am going through a lot of stress and it would be helpful if I talked to someone to relieve this stress. My sales numbers have been within the top three sales persons since I was hired. This morning when I went to clock in my manager notified me that I am suspended until further notice for not completing the steps to fix this problem. Isn't this illegal to make me see a psychologist for an unrelated issue, as well as fraud since I kept my end of the signed papers?

or:All my life i was under the impression that the state of CA. protected it's workers from issues like this. Why did you sign the papers ?
