'I told them I wasn’t missing my father's funeral for their measly $11 an hour. They fired me the next day.'
,"What was the reason you ended your last job?" The question clearly resonated with a lot of people, as the thread promptly filled with numerous stories and accounts. Here's what people shared:"The boss reduced employee salaries 30% for all except his wife and kid, who also worked for the company. That was after taking his extended family on a 12-day vacation.
"My boss called every car shop in town , and said that I was lying. I brought the part that I got replaced in to show her. She said that wasn't enough proof and that no one in town said they sold me that part. She wrote me up and then said I may or may not be fired, and she'd let me know at the end of the week. I said okay. She asked me if I was coming in the following morning, and I said sure. The next day, I slept in and never showed up.
"He called me Saturday morning asking what it would take to get me back. I told him he'd have to fire the scheduler . He said he could never do that. I told him I already knew that and had a job lined up for Monday morning. In between getting home and returning the work van, I sent my résumé out to five different HVAC companies. In the three hours it took to clean out and return the van, I had five offers.
"I had no choice but to pursue a temporary disability. My boss didn't believe me that it was that severe. Before they could contact the doctor's office to investigate my need for the disability, they fired me. I was able to push back, and they reinstated a temporary position for me and allowed me to get the disability as an apology. I took it, knowing at this point I wanted nothing more to do with them.
