My family and I are still displaced by Harvey. Our home is still just a shell. I received a message from my wife at work that they were going to cut our electricity off in the house we are renting if we didn't pay $1472. We have no idea where they got that number.
I quickly made my way to my supervisor and director. I told them of the situation and time was of the essence because we may have to move in with family if possible.
They accused me of showing a pattern of calling in the day before I was off and that I would have to be at work the next day. They said I had no choice. I have never called in to get an extra day off.
They showed no concern for the welfare of my family. I have a 2 week old baby at home and was about to have our power shut off.
I became angry and walked out and slammed the door. They chased me into the main security office and stood between me and the door out, blocking me in. I signed out and put my gear up.
They were still agitating me even more by belittling me. The stress they were causing me with the false accusations and threats to my job caused me to breakdown when I got home. I'm now having to start counselling for PTSD.
I used the whistleblower website to report it but have heard nothing back.
What can I do about this or who can I talk to? Sorry if this question was a bit of a mess. I'm still shaken by the matter.

"They accused me of showing a pattern of calling in the day before I was off " - what does that mean? Could you have called the electric company, rather than requesting time off? If you are in a union, you should talk to your union rep.
