Was told not to contact 2nd mkting mgr re: meeting. I did contact her. We met with Director Feb 7 & was told not to contact the employer because ''she was my employer''. Director planned meeting for all on Feb 10. There was no meeting, my contract was terminated and 2nd mkting mgr was given the work load. The employer was never notified by company. I and 2nd mkting mgr contacted employer.I tried to speak with company to fix the outcome and nothing.I was let go and the person who was also responsible for sending the message was not.

Re: discrimination
This is not unlawful "discrimination" but it could be a breach of contract, although I would bet that your contract provided that it could be terminated at any time for any reason. The only way for me to tell you for sure would be to review the contract itself.
