It’s been about a month since I’ve (F18) been terminated without cause. And the most frustrating part of it all is that I truly loved my job and I know I was good at it.
I worked at the front desk, handling customers and all of that. I knew all of the clients well and was always positive when speaking to them and made genuine connections with them. One client would always tell me how they loved how bubbly I was and friendly, telling me that I always made her day. And I took pride in that. That being said, of course I made my mistakes and acknowledged them. I was always open to criticism.
Then, one day when I was coming into my shift, I was pulled to the back and told that they were letting me go. I was so shocked I couldn’t really process their words. I asked if it was anything I did but they said it was a company decision.
At first, I was at somewhat peace thinking that they let me go because they weren’t making enough money and me being part time, I was the easier decision to part with. Then i saw a job posting for a full time position that made more than my part time position. Then I learned my manager, who fired me, quit the company a week later and that’s why she hasn’t been responding to my emails asking for a follow up.
This is more so a vent, I’m just frustrated because I truly loved the job despite all of the flaws it had. I know there’s more to the bigger picture that I’m not seeing, and it’s something I should get used to in the work environment. But, fuck.
