So, I have my wedding, the honeymoon, etc. Sink almost every penny I have into the whole sha-bang.... Towards the end of the first day back of work, I'm called into the conference room....and then I'm #ing fired!!!
What the #? Geez guys, you could have told me this before I spent a ton of money on the honeymoon.....
Not to mention, they didn't even give me a god damned reason why!!! (FL is a right to work state, so they don't have to...) I really didn't see this coming at all.... I mean I knew my boss was kind of scared of my experience and knowledge of the work and all, but I had NO idea it was this far...

That's the only thing I can think of, as I have a stack of client compliment letters..... The only solace I have is knowing how shocked they'll be when the clients call up asking to speak to only me, and then they have to tell them that I'm "no longer with the company" which is the phrase they'll use...which really means, "we're #ing idiots, and fired one of the most knowledgable reps we had...."

Well, I'm hitting the temp agencies today, and already filed for unemployment (though I'm sure I'll be working before that even goes in motion....still, good backup)... I've never actually been fired before....always quit previously...so this is really an eye-opener.... Even those co-workers I'd call friends don't seem to have a clue why (or if they do, they're playing dumb...)

What a great way to start married life.....#in' bastards.... I can't even defend myself, as I don't know what I'm defending against!!! Not that it would matter at this point...what's done is done.... Still, I'd like to know....
Assholes...... They're lucky I'm a nice guy....seeing as how singlehandedly, I could put the company out of commission for days, and cost them thousands, possibly more, and lost clients.... But, I'm not that kind of person (and they know it)...nor would I do something that stupid....but man, I just had to rant for a bit.....:bash:

Damn Gaz !! That really bites !! Wtf? What reason do you think they had to terminate you? (Other than them being afraid of your know-how)
I'm sorry to hear it. Try not to let it get you and your new wife down. This is a happy time for you guys.
Congrats, btw ! Let us know if there is anything we can do to help.

Holy # Gaz!! That's some sad news. Kinda makes you want to go to your boss's office and put your foot up his ass. Dont worry about it. You'll have an even better job in no time.

I can not believe those friggen A- holes would do that to you man. Un-fricken believable. What is the name of the company and what was your position?

(FL is a right to work state, so they don't have to...)

I thought "right to work" was the opposite of that....I thought it was put in place to protect peoples rights to work..not protect the companies rights to fire without reason..but I guess im wrong if what you say is correct..If that the case the term "right to work" is sure missleading!! "right to work" sounds like a good thing...damn government

The HR Director knew I was searching for an engagement ring, and I told her one lunch break I was on my way to get a $10,000 platinum ring. She let me.

Then called me in once I got back to let me go. I went ape # on the ring issue, and she was like "Oh I didn't even think of that..." :shk:

Sorry to hear that Gaz. Welcome to the surf ATS all day club. :verysad:

I need to know the name of that sweat shop and what your job was. I am personally insulted that they would do you like that.

Even if he was fired..he may need to use them as a reference so it may not be to good an idea to harrass his employers...He may have to use them on an application or something..but if your worried about it...I love to flame and harrass people.(for fun)

I just think that was a real chicken arse thing for his employer to do. What ever happened to coaching and counseling an employee to get desired results. I obviously dont know the whole story and hope the G man will post it here for us to read. They should consider his personal situation and should have given him an opportunity improve. Even friggen MacDonalds does that. :bash::bnghd::bash::bash::bnghd:

I'm happy that they let you enjoy your honeymoon w/o worry of being fired. There is a silver lining in everything, believe me. You'll either get a new job or find a way around it, and things will be fine. Two years from now you may be happy that you aren't working that job anymore, in Flordia.
