Vignettes
The first time you meet Elisa, age 38, she is in the
hospital emergency room recovering from a severe
panic attack. Tears are streaming down her face and
she is having difficulty telling you her story. They are
trying to get rid of me. Ive worked for them for twelve
years. Now they make fun of my accent and accuse
me of chasing customers away. They say its my fault
the other woman in our unit quit. I dont know what I
will do. I cant just get another job.
Elisa has been having problems at work for the last ten
months. Her difficulties started when she returned
from a leave of absence taken at the time of her sons
death. He had been killed in a gang related incident.
He was such a good boy. I dont know why it happen.
Im so alone now. I dont know what I will do if I lose
my job.
