Forced to quit.

I just put my two weeks, because of my boss’ hatred for me. For the past two months I was a cashier here, I made three mistakes that made him angrier each time: We stock the store in our free time, and I accidentally opened a product full of cans. I thought I was supposed to open it since we open the rest of the boxes to stock them. I didn’t find out until he came over to me with a group of opened boxes and demanded to know who opened it. A week later, and the same incident happened, but it wasn’t me. He threw a full on tantrum with customers inside the store, and blamed me. He lost .81 cents because I accidentally hit “check” instead of “card”. I somehow made the same mistake, again, and he lost $40. Apparently, I picked “cash” twice and he lost money…


I just put my two weeks, because of my boss’ hatred for me. For the past two months I was a cashier here, I made three mistakes that made him angrier each time:

  • We stock the store in our free time, and I accidentally opened a product full of cans. I thought I was supposed to open it since we open the rest of the boxes to stock them. I didn’t find out until he came over to me with a group of opened boxes and demanded to know who opened it. A week later, and the same incident happened, but it wasn’t me. He threw a full on tantrum with customers inside the store, and blamed me.

  • He lost .81 cents because I accidentally hit “check” instead of “card”.

  • I somehow made the same mistake, again, and he lost $40. Apparently, I picked “cash” twice and he lost money because of it. The customer paid half with cash, but the other half was somehow still taken from their card. I have no idea how this happened, but he still wrote me up, and lectured me in the office.

For every mistake I made, I apologized profusely. He decreased my hours after my first mistake, and never gave them back. Yesterday, I went in to buy a couple of things, and apologized, again. This time, he said he wanted me to quit, but would think about it beforehand. I was embarrassed, and didn’t know what else to do, so I texted my shift lead with a two weeks notice.

I just got this job, and it really hurts that I have find another job. I’m so tired of job hopping. I really loved this job, and I hate that it was ruined by a shitty boss. He’s abusive to every single one of his employees, and acts childish when he doesn’t get his way. Is this fair?
