About 2 hours ago I was fired without warning due to attendance issues…. I missed work on Tuesday due to getting my car fixed and I told my boss I wasn’t coming in and he was well aware of that. I rarely missed work before that. I worked about 48-57 hours a week most times. This was a temp job I was at for a year… yes a year.
This was the case with most temps who got hired in 2022 nobody was permanent. I was also looking for other opportunities just in case something like this would happen but didn’t expect it.
Got a call from my recruiter who broke me the news while I was still working. She was absolutely shocked that it happened and surprised I was still working there at the time she called.
All my coworkers were shocked when it happened and were pretty sad when I had to leave. I enjoyed working with them and will miss them. I never got along with my boss and a lot of other workers didn’t either. I always sensed he didn’t like me so him doing this isn’t really a shock. I usually did all his work for him and would be the last one to leave to close everything down while everyone would be in their beds sleeping.
Surprisingly I got a job offer for a job I interviewed for on Monday. So things are working out. Still feel pretty blindsided by this though.
