As the title says, tomorrow is the day of all days ... I'm getting fired from a job for the very first time in my life!
I'm excited. Are you excited? You better be

So, currently I'm still working as an assistant of management in a hotel. I was getting along with my boss pretty well but a few weeks back we had a fight. Basically, she was just having one of her retard moments and I was unlucky enough to be the only one around at that time. Sucks for her I don't take it easily when someone tries to fuck me over by trying to force work on me I don't know anything about or that isn't even supposed to be part of my work (Jek, do the taxes for 2012, you have time until tonight 10pm).

Since then she's just searching for reasons to get me fired, even got the IT guy, which I'm luckily really good friends with, to spy after me, because according to her I was sleeping and watching movies at work (Lol no).

Anyways, thanks to my buddy I know about all this stuff and also know she wants to fire me tomorrow. Which is good, considering this work was my only source of income and I still have to pay rent and for uni. I found a new job pretty quickly, way better pay and working conditions.

So now, celebrate with me! Feel free to bash you bosses here too


So today I went to work all happy and stuff, doing my work and waiting till she arrives. First thing I did in the morning was filling out how many hours I worked and put it on her desk. She arrives just like nothing happened, tries joking with me and stuff, I don't react. Don't talk to her, only when it's necessary.

The end of my work day: I go to her, tell her I'm gonna go drink a coffee and that she should look at my paycheck while I get my things. I come back take it, look at her and just flat out ask how she thinks this should continue. She gets all defensive, trying to tell me some bullshit story about how things were rough for her and she is sorry. Well guess what, things are rough for everyone, still i'm not going into work all mad and try to fuck up someone's day. Especially considering I got paid not nearly enough. I wouldn't even be able to pay my rent for next month if it wasn't for a great friend of mine.

She still tries finding some bullshit excuses, I just cut her off and tell her that I do not take it kindly when people treat me like that. Funny thing is: Some employees are leaving and this means I would be one of the very last people who are fit for the job. Who know the system and can actually solve problems.

She literally begged me to stay.

Sucks for her I don't intend to :)

One question, how much do they pay you and how much will you get from the new job ? I'm a university student too and it's not even worth working here, I make more money selling Steam games than I earn while working.HOW MUCH DAMN IT, TELL ME ?!?!?!

Well, she didn't pay me nearly enough for all the work I did. But I'm getting enough money to pay for uni, I can afford my own place and to save a bit every month. Could be more but it's okay considering I'm still studying.

Congratulations on having something lined up for you and ditching a crappy job tomorrow. I'm still looking for one over here myself.

Bitter, much? Some people are actually fortunate in their employment, I am happy for those folks:P

Why bitter? I'm not bitter. However, good bosses/foremen have a tendency of getting fired/replaced themselves or their business going under because they're not squeezing every last drop of blood out their workers. It's just experience. ;)

Well normally I'd say I was sorry you'd be getting fired but it seems like you already have a better thing going so congratulations!
I work as a library clerk (not a full librarian, unfortunately I don't have the Masters Degree in Lib Science for that) and they're cutting hours across the system in an effort to "encourage" non-librarians to quit because the levies for our library system fail to pass, despite our libraries retaining high numbers of users compared to other branches across the country. I've been looking for other jobs but my heart's not in it, I love working at a library but one does what one must. I'm just grateful I have a job for the moment and wish everyone looking for work the best of luck. Unless, y'know, they're terrible people.

Man your boss is lucky. Running a small business is tough and I wish I could fire my lazy employee, sadly I'm sleeping with him :/ On the plus side the sex is good and he knows what I like.

I run a small business by myself and always wanted to fire someone, thought about hiring someone just so I could fire them...it seems like it'd be fun.

Congratulations on getting fired!

this is oddly depressing
find a job you dont find hostile
also it sounds like you are a woman, because this kind of stuff is stuff a woman would say to justify her actions

No "Wrongful Dismissal" laws where you live, or can't be bothered as it's easier to just work somewhere else?

I've never seen wrongful dismissal laws be beneficial for blue collar work. It's usually easier to move on.

Yeh, true enough. Most likely would be a huge waste of time unless you had something concrete to use against them. Most cases are likely a he-said/she-said situation and just get dismissed.
