A Australian father's 'dream tree change' was humiliatingly destroyed when he was sacked over of his weight after moving his family 3,000km - despite his new boss seeing him before hiring him.
Hamish Griffin posted to social media about the 'heartbreak and embarrassment' of his termination just 'two hours' into a new role at the Big4 holiday park at Strahan, Tasmania, which left his family 'homeless'.
Mr Griffin claimed he had only been in the role two days when his employer, the park owner, asked him to help move a sofa, then 'ripped' into him, saying he wasn't 'physically' capable before dismissing him.

'I know there are people in much worse financial positions than us, but essentially we are now homeless, unemployed, with a devastated little boy with no school to go to this year,' Mr Griffin said.
He claimed his new employer, the owner of Big4 Strahan Holiday Retreat, justified the decision by speculating that he wouldn't be able to mow a lawn or climb a ladder, and that any 'reasonable' person' would agree.
Mr Griffin also claimed the park owner 'insulted' him by claiming he'd hidden his 'medical condition', which he explained was being 'obese'.
The park's owners confirmed in a statement provide to the ABC that they believed Mr Griffin had withheld a medical issue.
