About to get fired and I think I’m training my replacement

Basically what the title says. I got injured on the job and I'm pretty sure they're going to fire me because I've taken some time off work (with doctors notes, etc.) The time off equates to 2-3 weeks, non-consecutively. I'm in the process of working with worker's comp, so at least I can get some help with the medical bills. But the job is basically over. Even if they don't fire me, I couldn't possibly keep working here. I had asked my bosses if my job was safe and they wouldn't give me a straight answer. And then, what did I see on a job posting site but a listing from my company that sounds very similar to my job. This isn't the first time they've had me train my replacement. I'm just so fucking sick of the shadiness and companies being able to get away with whatever they want.…

I'm in the process of working with worker's comp, so at least I can get some help with the medical bills. But the job is basically over. Even if they don't fire me, I couldn't possibly keep working here.

I had asked my bosses if my job was safe and they wouldn't give me a straight answer. And then, what did I see on a job posting site but a listing from my company that sounds very similar to my job.

This isn't the first time they've had me train my replacement. I'm just so fucking sick of the shadiness and companies being able to get away with whatever they want.

I won't quit; I'm hoping to get unemployment and I also really can't afford to lose my insurance.

Companies don't give a shit about you. Doesn't matter if they're small, “we're like family” companies or corporations – you mean nothing. I helped build this company years and years ago and now I'm no good to them because I'm trying to heal my fucking body.

Not sure how to move forward with the training. I've been training the employee for a few months now, but there's a lot more to learn.

I fucking hate this.
