Being GLAD to be terminated.

Even jobs you're perfectly happy with can turn into a nightmare over time.

If you're a young college student, and your boss was also a young college student, then it's pretty reasonable to assume she has no actual mgmt experience in a professional workplace. When you get out in the real world, generally most bosses are reasonable, although not always.

That's why I never work on any ideas I have on my school-owned laptop with all my AutoCAD software.

I knew things would head south a bit because I would work after 5 pm, and it got a bit worse when she started to introduce a fluid schedule along with the best employee having free reign over hours. Then she mentioned that hours would now be 5 pm to 1 am.

I never expected it to go so far south so fast, but that's over.

Since I'm a bit more level headed now, I'll update a bit; boss at first job knew that the night job was screwing with me (she's CC'd on the schedule and noticed on the nights where my shift ended late, that the next day I'd be late to my day job), which surprised me. She also told me she has expedited my training up by a week for another job I was referred to.

I hope my luck doesn't all run out this early in my life!

'boiled clutch fluid' has no relevance to me as an employer.
you didn't show up when i expected you.

or you repeatedly have some excuse for not showing up... either way it is not productive to me - who is paying the bills...

so i would fire you too.

To clarify:

I said I had car trouble and lacked transportation. Hence why I live where I work. Sent ahead about being unavailable for Monday and/or Tuesday. Family car ended up having trouble (bad bearing got a whole lot worse overnight). Notified ahead, Monday night.

My supervisor is not an employer. My supervisor did not pay any bills, nor did she pay anything out of pocket being there. My supervisor had zero experience at that workplace, similar to me, but was hired first, 15 days prior, and trained for a week instead of a day. Made same amount as me.

Truth is, I would fire me too. Doesn't justify losing your **** in front of your employee.

I figure it would be better for everyone and this forum if this were closed.
