Venting GOT FIRED TODAY, a new update has been added!!!

[whywere]

1st off sorry for bothering people, this is just for me, I do not want to have to burden anyone, I am a totally worthless piece of shit. I got there this morning had a "manager" waiting for me, took me in a conference room and asked for my temp badge to get in the place and walked out and that was that. At 64 years young, I was 40 plus years older than the others and I tried 110% to keep up and not good enough, get out.

UPDATE!!!!!I told them I had mental health issues AND after getting fired they called the cops on me and they were going to do a 72 hour hold on me because the company called and said I was suicidal. Had to talk fast to get out of the 72 hour hold. Fire me then call the cops on me.

You just described human kind in a nutshell.

I am very sorry to hear what happened to you. I wish there was something I could do to help you, my friend.

Your experience is just another example of how cruel people are.

The truth is that most people are evil. Our lives are wretched. And there is nothing we can do about it.

I wish I had access to nuclear weapons right now...

I give you a hug, my friend.

I got fired once many years ago,

The assistant manager was bullying me every day treating me like a slave and spoke to me like dirt, and the top manager took his side, i got fired for talking back how he was treating me.

I went to the assistant managers house and threw a brick through his car window.

Not proud but i had a good sleep that night.

i was a manager and i treat people with respect , if we had a lull i`d say go put kettle on , never ordered anyone around and got the job done faster and more efficient than it had ever been done , I forget what i had got the lads doing but the general manager asked me ,"how did you get them to do that "? , i said i asked instead of ordering .
Unfortunately the owner semi retired and got an arsehole new chief executive to run the place who changed everything i did and fooked the company up by buying things we told him not too , he wanted me out as i knew more than him and he even took my company car off me , i walked out in the end and wasn't even sanction for benefits when they had been in touch with him and agreed with me he was an arsehole , they advised me to sue .... anyway from going from opening a new store every year i was there and me setting them up and training staff it ended up going bankrupt with him spend spend spending . knob he was , i loved hat job

 

[XYZ]

Here's a hug from me, I think you need one on this tough day

I am really sorry you got fired in such a beastly manner. You deserve respect and compassion.

 

[Good4Nothing]

I'm sorry you got fired. I was rooting for you.

 

[Soul]

I'm sorry. (((Hug)))

 

[TheQ22]

I'm sorry to hear that. Don't do anything rash, it's just part of the journey.

 

[Sinkinshyp]

I'm sorry you got fired. They didn't deserve you. Sending you hugs

 

[TheQ22]

I'm sorry to hear you got fired. People are so heartless. It's hard for find work since covid. Many hugs to you.

I love how you give the compassion, then drive the dagger home by reminding them how nasty people are, and how hard it will be to find another job.

Give with one hand, take with the other two. Then wrap it up with a quite insincere hug.

It all depends on what they do, it might not be hard at all, especially with all of their experience.

Perhaps reword or think more carefully about what you say.

Good luck OP I am rooting for you and believe in you.

Its a harsh reality we all deal with. Sorry I don't just shoot rainbows of hope up everyone's butts, but I do empathize.

Ahem.

Yeh everything is harsh but if my dog poops in my kitchen I don't need you to rub my nose in it to know it's there.

Not going to make me feel better about it, is it?

There's a difference between not shooting rainbows up peoples arses and actively making them feel even shitter.

Ahem.

Yes I am a hypocrite. But that's why I can point this out. So I'm doing you all a favour, really.

Deleted, now can you get off my ass about it?

 

[TheQ22]

Certainly dude/dudette.

I apologise for getting on your ass in the first place.

 

[voyager]

I'm sorry they fired you. Had it happen to me too years ago. Knew it was coming months beforehand. Was pretty disillusioned by hat point and not putting much effort into it anymore, but it was nevertheless demeaning. Would even have dreams about it over months in which they'd taken me back and it all being one big misunderstanding. Thing is don't take it personal. Truth is I wasn't willing to take the night shifts anymore (after colleagues got robbed twice) and was thus useless to them. Same goes for you. It's not your fault but this world.

 

[Ghost2211]

You could have sent a pm and said my wording wasn't appreciated, and I would have deleted. It's cool, I have no issue with you and removed it. Edit your reply if you don't want op to read it. I didn't intend it as bad as you took it, but I seem to do that at times.

[Deleted member 17949]

feels bad man ngl, rough situation

 

[Good4Nothing]

UPDATE!!!!!I told them I had mental health issues AND after getting fired they called the cops on me and they were going to do a 72 hour hold on me because the company called and said I was suicidal. Had to talk fast to get out of the 72 hour hold. Fire me then call the cops on me.

Wow, that's crazy!

 

[Soul]

It's not your fault but this world.

@whywere, this here is important to remember. I found out this week that my contract won't be renewed next year, and that's not my fault either, right? It's the state of the world right now.
So have another (((hug))) and be gentle with yourself. x

Update: Yikes!! Wtf did someone call the cops?! You need some time to recover from all this excess crap. I wish you good rest, good food and hydration, and something uplifting to listen to or read or watch.


@voyager, thanks for pulling my socks up too. 8]

Fucking hell!!! That company sounds like total trash!! I'm so sorry this happened to you!!!!

Yes to your question. I know that I am stupid and dumber than a rock, so please zing me for being stupid, I totally deserve it.

 

[GoodPersonEffed]

Yes to your question. I know that I am stupid and dumber than a rock, so please zing me for being stupid, I totally deserve it.

I was trying to figure out how it happened before I picked up any torches and pitchforks against the employer. You made a bad judgment call and that's how things ended up. But no zings, and no torches and pitchforks against you, either. I've gotten in trouble in the past for communications on work computers, even got fired from one job, all awful experiences. I've had a hard time keeping my personal self and my work self separate, and I've experienced consequences for it. I'd like to say I learned all my lessons, finally kept perfect boundaries between the two, never sabotaged myself and never suffered for it again, but that wouldn't be true. Some lessons are really painful, and some places one just doesn't fit even if they need to. It's really hard. You have my empathy and compassion.

I fucking love it!!!

 

[takemenowpls]

I too lost my job of 18 years. All for trying to do the right thing. I haven't worked since and am going downhill fast

 

[notlongnow]

Love a good printer smash up / TPS report (Office Space) toys out the pram job Mashup. @takemenowpls - that sucks. Jobs come and go though, you can bounce back.

My poor decisions today will take some effort tomorrow regarding my job. I definitely concern myself as to how fragile I am to certain situations. Its safer to live a reclusive life and not be vulnerable to certain hurdles. Bills suck

Anyway, this platform has aided me today, quite heavily. Glad I found it and you all recently

Oh my goodness I'm really sorry you went through all of this. I'm sending you prayers. This makes me so angry and reinforces why I loath most humans and will ctb
