re: cathy
Have you talked to your boss about this issue? If so, and they are still having you do these types of tasks you may be able to quit and collect unemployment – i would contact your local unemployment office and see what they say.
If you’re hurt you may be able to get workman’s comp also.
Hope this helps

I’m currently on maternity leave and am scheduled to return back to work. However, when I left I was on 2nd shift and now with the new baby, a 4yr old and a 15yr old, I can no longer work 2nd or 3rd shift. I do not have enough senority to get onto 1st shift. I have no other option but to look for employment elsewhere. Would I still qualify for unemployment if I quit for these reasons?
