I have been working for a hotel (in Europe btw) for more than a year now as a part time breakfast waiter working around 3 days per week (mostly Friday and weekends) while studying for my masters. It is literally the only income that I have and since I am not studying in my country it is the only thing that pays the bills…
Around three weeks ago I was very very sick and I called in the morning to tell them that it is impossible to work, the manager (who did not worked that morning, he never helps in the restaurant anyway) said ok. It was the second time I was sick while we had this manager (which is also a new manager that barely knows that job since he is at the position only 6 months or so), the other time was 3 months again only for one day.
All of the sudden since that day all my agreed weekend and weekday shifts are gone, I have worked zero shifts for 3 weeks now, and I will get almost no salary for this month(and obviously the nexts once). I have trying to call him, emailed and sms him what happened, that I need this job because it is the only income that I have, but nothing he completely ghosted me. How bad of a person can you be when you just delete a persons livelihood without any thought? And without have it any benefit for you?
The saddest part is that I was very consistent and reliable at the job, I was fast and always on time etc. Now I am a very bad position on all of the sudden, of course applying for other jobs all day but no hope, while I am trying to study and balance my life for the uni . I am getting rejected by everything even McDonalds etc for no apparent reason.
I am completely in a loss 🙁
