I need a new job
Edited on Mon Apr-24-06 02:22 PM by windy252
I was just released from my old job today without much warning because I apparently violated a security rule I did not know existed. And I don't remember anyone telling me about it. Where can I look? And, is there any way for me to be less upset than I am now. I am extremely upset because of the way it was done.

1. Are any appeal procedures available to you?

While you are doing that, get your resume together and start looking on Monster.com and craigs.list to start.

Try to keep a positive attitude, and convince yourself that this may be a wonderful opportunity to find a job that will be much better than the one you had.

Having just been fired in a disgusting way, I can empathize, and am also trying to keep positive.

Just curious. Doesn't sound entirely legit.

3. No they didn't.
That's what's been bothering me. I don't remember being told it was verboten to use the stairs. My father, who is a manager at another company, thinks it was because someone really wanted to get rid of me and was looking for an excuse to do so.
