Alright, I will admit, it's not entirely the title, yes I'm a bit clickbaity I apologize I'm just very frustrated.
So I've been working part time at a Lighthouse that's been converted into a museum in my area, I've been getting sick a lot lately and haven't been the most reliable worker, but whenever I'm there I'm good, I'm never on my phone, I'm attentive to all of the guests, I'm on top of getting stuff done like cleaning and restocking.
I was scheduled to work on Memorial Day weekend, which is a very busy time for them. My family is planning to have as many people as they can come visit my great aunt who is very ill that weekend. So I texted him, and with my previous attendence issues in mind, asked if I could take those days off but making it clear I was perfectly willing to work those days if he really can't spare me. I specifically said “If you really need me I can work those days.”
The text I receive in response is “Honor your family commitment, but this isn't working out. I wish you all the best!”
I thank him for the opportunity and this fucker hits me with a “Good Luck!”
I'm just pissed, I know I wasn't perfect, but I gave him a months notice about this, and specifically said I was still willing to work if he couldn't get anyone else to fill in and he fired me
Tldr: I was fired for having attendence issues due to illness and a very sick family member.
