Re:Sometimes things just suck! Luv2drive85: PG....let me just start by saying its illegal for them to fire you for that LAME reason!!! WTF is right! and its illegal for anyone to ask your age, sexual preference, religion, marital status, child status or even if you are a smoker during an interview! I hope that wasnt the case at that tiny company. I work for a large, politically correct company. They are very strict with things like that. Just an fyi....
And keep your chin up.....like you kinda of said before, everything happens for a reason. there are bigger and better things out there for you, hence the reason you're not at that uptight, stiff, tiny company :)
Re:Sometimes things just suck! in_search_of: I just want to toss in that it does suck! But L2Drv85, its not illegal, most states are right to work states, and if you do not sign an employment contract you can be dismissed at any time with or without reason.
Re:Sometimes things just suck! janee: Sorry to hear you were fired from your job, that sucks. But, keep your chin up and keep looking. It took me almost a year to find a career related job. Between that time, I worked crap jobs, etc. Sounds like that job was a bunch of yuppie, stuck up jerks, and that is the last thing you need to be around. Especially, during tough times. I would suggest looking at temporary work, until you find something permanent. May not be ideal, but its cash. And it shows potential employers you are staying busy. Look at craigslist.org in your area. Don't know where you live, but there are some job listings. I found this sight to be more helpful than the paper. Good luck and keep us posted.
