Long story short, started a new job, they flew me out, put me in company housing for six month contract. I was hopeful for this job as first people to hire me in a while, I quit my remote work which wasnt very reliable and started it.
Right away I had problems with them with them writing me up for being 'late'…one of them was while I was in passenger in car, other time was being 3 minutes late (I got turned around due to bad directions on unfamiliar roads).
Recently I came under the weather with a severe chest cough that at start gave me insomia due to coughing all night. Gradually progressed into being unable to eat most solid foods without vomiting, etc. I had to go to Urgent care 3x (one of which I had to leave work early for) due to how bad I felt.
Yesterday I went and emailed them asking for more training once I was feeling better. (I was hired in a desk as well as field capacity) I was told a soft no (and told they were looking for someone with more experience…which I had been trying to get from them) and then later that night I was emailed a 2 weeks notice with option to go back sooner and they would comp me for flight home.
I really do think its a bad idea to go back to work to people that gave me a 2 weeks. It would be a hostile work environment to work with people who know I dont have a future in the company.
Im 32 and already I feel like this was the big chance I wanted for so long and I blew it. (This was meant to be a 6 month contract and was also meant to be the big resume booster I wanted)
