subtle signs of pregnancy discrimination or losing my mind?

I'm a manager for a popular restaurant chain. I've been with the company almost one year and have moved up fairly quickly. I started in a lower position and was promoted almost right away. Everything was going great...Until the day I revealed that I was newly pregnant. Suddenly I was transferred to another (less desirable and poorly operated) store. Two weeks later, I was again transferred to a store that has a history of not being able to retain managers at my level. Not long after starting, I was accused of being $400 short in my cash. Never had these issues in any other store. A few days later, I was accused of not locking the store down or setting the security alarm. Very odd and very sensitive details to miss. Am I losing my mind or does it seem like pregnancy discrimination at one of its most subtle forms?

    Subtle Signs Of Pregnancy

    Seems they had confidence you could do some things to improve conditions at these stores. You said they promoted you quickly so that could be the reason for the transfers. Just because you had not had issues before does not make you immune to these. No it is not pregnancy discrimination because pregnancy is not a protected status.

    That does sound like they're trying to invent justifications for firing you.
