I am now out $60. I understand I could be fired at any time and that it is what it is, but they told me to buy specific scrubs, and have them before I started. They told me there was a uniform allowance. And then when I did start, I was told I couldn’t be part of that one benefit.

I want to invoice them. Should I?
