I got fired today for “having shows on my phone while working and that is not professional”. I am an electrical engineer (2 years at the company, 15 years total experience) that works on system designs at my desk or building cables in a lab. I do have shows on for noise, but get all my work done and have had no complaints or warnings. And I am certainly not the only one with shows on. Hell, I got a $3k bonus at the beginning of the year.
I am just pissed and wanted to vent about being fired without warning and that at will employment is bullshit. I think I actually got fired for making too much in our EE team.
