Hello Everyone. Please note that I am NOT in the position to provide any type of legal advice on this topic. I made this video as generic as possible to help with ideas on what to do if you get fired. There are ALOT of comments from ppl with very specific circumstances asking for my help that I cannot address. Thanks for understanding.
If you were let go with a severance package, it's more like you were "laid off" than "fired." When many people hear "fired," they tend to think "fired for cause," which is associated with a serious infraction at the workplace. While losing a job in any capacity is demoralizing and can affect your self-esteem, the more you are out in the work force, the more you realize people lose their jobs all the time. The higher up the ladder you go, the more it is an expected risk with any job, and you actually become a desirable candidate when you're a free agent again. For anyone reading I would try to word it that you mutually decided the position was not a good fit and that you learned a lot and stuck with it. People who are part of Human Resources Department and/or in charge of employment know this happens frequently in the workplace world. I would definitely quote anything in your written performance reviews that show your "strong upward trend" and include a reference or quotation from one of the managers with whom you had a great relationship, if possible. Spin it that you can take it on the chin and keep fighting, make it a positive experience. It might actually help your application much more than you think. Good luck to y'all reading this! I’d say it’s also important TO NOT LIE about the reasons you were fired, but you also don’t need to tell your next employer every detail about what happened. You don’t want to paint yourself in a bad picture for your next employer.
MOST employers in this day and age don't care about what you have done in the past(as far as employment is concerned). They care about WHAT YOU CAN DO FOR THEM in the present.I'm 29yrs old and I've had 5 jobs in my life.Gotten fired from 3 of them and quit 1 job WITHOUT a 2weeks notice.I'm on my 6th job making 100,000K+ as a oil field truck driver.Slavery ended a long time ago and people should remove the emotion from work and/or working 1 particular job.This is my humble opinion.
Agreed that most U.S. based corporate companies really don't care much about the employee base despite what many of them say. Bottom line is that it's very difficult in the work force these days and only getting worse. However, jumping from job to job especially in a chosen profession is not a good idea. But I do understand there are diff scenario's that can affect this. Thanks for watching.
Information Technology Q & A Show Sometimes staying too long in one job is not good either. The majority of these companies are looking for specific skill sets and if you've been on a job for too long and you haven't developed the skill sets you would most likely be rejected! I read an article on the internet where this guy owned his own company and he saw resumes of candidates that stayed on a job for like 10 years or more - he automatically threw their resumes in the trash! Just some food for thought!
tsohgallik Yep, and some don't last very long. They think they are going to do this year in year out............right. I read 6 weeks for some. The hours can be even 22/day. Obviously one has to be young and healthy.
I got fired because my skills weren't up to the level they wanted me to be. But they hardly even trained me. They were to busy to train me. And they never even gave me a warning. And the worst part is that I trained the person that replaced me. He's a mechanical engineer and they wanted to save money so they got rid of me.
It's unfortunate but that is common. One tip, NEVER rely on your employer to train you on skills that you should be acquiring on your own. They only need to train you on specifics that relate to their company only. Ie, home grown software, CRM applications, HR topics, etc.
@@learnitfromwilliam well my job at the time was fixing MRI machines so it's something that you can't even learn in school other than learning it from the company that you work for. But getting fired was the best thing that happened to me. Now I have a better job with higher pay and I'm happy there.
I just got my slow talk from my bos where he keeps reminding me i am not qualified for the job and how im not performing up to the standard.. To me it just sound stupid cause 1. When my manager (my bos) hired me there was no problem at all.. The qualification in reality is just if you know how to operate the software.. I know how to and i am good at it.. Even tho i do admit my knowledge of the job is basically 0. I worked for more then 5 years and just yesterday i become the guy who is not qualified.. Also.. I wont bullshit that my performance is great or anything but i do get the job done.. I did my best and i do it fast because when it comes to my assingment its always urgent.. What a load of bullshit.. Im gonna hand my resign latter in another month.. I know when im not needed..
I got fired because I said I no longer trusted my manager. He fired me for that lol. Oh well. I wasn't happy anyway. It sucks when you know your job isn't working out. But I feel free. Money isn't everything. Nothing worse than going to a job and a boss that you HATE!!!!! Now I get to leave all that behind. I just plan on being honest. I was good at what I did, it was my boss I didn't get along with. It happens
Bad bosses don't stay for long. Either they eventually move on to another job or they get fired from Regional management if other employers are having a bad time with this specific manager.
Angela L i have the same issue i just got fired yesterday with no concrete reason.but before that the company is getting toxic and i dont like the environment anymore.i feel mad when they fired me but i feel relief also coz i dont want to stay there anymore. and right it's not always about the money if u have a very toxic job.
i know a guy who got fired for calling out and going to the hospital even with a doctors note. thats why being an employee sucks and people should really consider looking for other sources of income rather than just having one. but when your out of a job, your new job is to get a job.
That's unfortunate for him. In some states companies can fire with no reason and that sucks. If he was a good employee with a good record, I would probably get a lawyer on that. Not everyone is cut out to be self employed or have a side hustle but I agree with you on that. And yes, if you don't have a job, your JOB is to find a job! In fact I have a video specifically on that topic. Thanks for watching!
Exactly what’s happening to me, I was out of sick hours but I was horribly sick and I got a doctors note and now they’re asking for a excuse for every single time I missed work to stay in one day...
U r still better than my neighbor Cuong! Here's some motivation. U still have some time. U r not 60. My neighbor got fired when he was 50 around christmas 🎄 and his bday! How cursed is that? Take guts to admit u got issues. All humans do. U r not like my neighbor Cuong. He was arrested 2x for his rage against his supervisors! Then he got fired around christmas 2012! Sought revenge and retribution, lost 2 court cases to his employers, & lost thousands of dollars to attorney fees! The misery doesnt stop here. He doesn't go out unless necessary. No job. No vacations. No eating out. Doesn't celebrate any kind of holiday as he lost interest in anything socially-related. Almost no social interactions outside his family. Wife works and cooks for him daily. He has 2 junk cars sitting in his backyard and many other clutters. He also collects cans and bottles to get paid for recycling ♻️. I mean Cuong is a miserable guy who has no real, honest hope in his life anymore! That's 10 years of misery n denial of his major, mental illness conditions. He likes to put up a tough, fake front in front of others, but his pain and agony overpowers him inside. His false pride 😤 is what leads him to self destruction! What a shame. People on this site have more courage than 🐔 Cuong! A failure covers n lies about his issues. That's Cuong. U r definitely a good, useful person in our society! YOU ARE FREAKIN, PRECIOUS AND UNIQUE! Wish u accept Jesus Christ as your Savior so u can go to heaven after this life. God doesn't expect you to be perfect nor sinless. He just wants u to believe in Him as your Savior for your sins so u can go to heaven after this life.
I got fired because I didn’t smile enough, unfortunately in most states laws don’t protect employees ,they barely respect race and religion therefore companies can do whatever they want with you
@@luvfreedom1470 it's actually if you don't admit, then get hired you will be fired. Telling the truth, employers gain trust in you. Then would still hire you. Don't be a bullshitter is what employers aways say.
@@dave7701 Yeah that never happens actually. 99.99999% of HR personnel are only going to ever confirm your employment dates. They MIGHT divulge if you are eligible for re hire, but even that is scarce. Admitting to a termination however will guarantee you won't get an offer, especially right now. Just reality...
@@dave7701 Not sure what the "lol" is for because what I said is absolutely true, but glad you don't judge applicants that way in your business. If you are spilling the beans about terminated employees then you are lining yourself up for a lawsuit. PS. Its obvious you haven't been on a job search in a very long time.
I was told to never refer to yourself as having been fired. Call it, involuntary separation. It works too. I was fired recently from a job I had been at for almost 2 years without real reason. I was told I was not "where I should be" and they refused to elaborate. I explained as much at my next interview process and laid it out as such. Got the job.
I am 26 and get fired for performance issues..I try to improve but my boss doesn't want me anymore..it makes me sad..but it's my fault I am screwed up at my work..
Well, if you've already identified you're the problem, then now you can work on fixing it. Have you read my resource guide? If not, I suggest you do. You can download it here: askwilliamc.com
Mine fired me cause of “poor performances” but seriously how can anyone be good at anything in the eyes of a micromanager?!?! Even breathing wrong would’ve set her off
Got fired today for low speed and poor performance. Gives me 2 days to improve my skills but I think that’s such bullshit that my boss only gives me 2 fucking days to improve and shit. I just think the boss had something against me
@@rhinelanderpcoffical2446 a similar thing happened to me. Got an initial warning about behavior that was my fault and I improved as best I could. Fast forward a few months, I have a talk with new supervisor about my call numbers being low and to get those up. Next morning I learned I was fired.
@@MsFallenangel1121 right man, that place was a joke. Such a bad boss and had no training like fuck that. Just in case your wondering it was a landfill I worked at.
@@rhinelanderpcoffical2446 that sucks, you’d think they’d want to make sure everyone is throughly trained. Tho similar thing happened at my previous company too so I’m not surprised. Despite having only done 1 of a 2 week training period, when I expressed not feeling fully ready, supervisor hit me with “well you’re either ready now or you’ll never be ready” and threw me into the waves with a bare bones idea of what was expected of me in the position. Godspeed in your job search
That sucks. I've broken so many things at work, I just called my supervisors and said it broke and they took care of it. Sometimes stuff just brakes and you just happened to be using it at the time.
I just got fired from my job because of other people gossiping about me. My GM did not confront me, waited for me to leave my shift, and texted me 5 minutes later, firing me. Over gossip. For no reason. And did not talk to me about it. I was her best worker, so this is extremely frustrating and uncalled for. I'm going to go to the store owner about it, because he has no idea of half the things she does to the store and people. Crazy.
I doubt you did anything about it.. I say throws eggs at that bitches car and dump milk in her cars engine.... Anyways did you got a job anywhere else? That hazing of her car seems creative though :-D I say one or two eggs.
People hesitate to do this, but I learned a hard lesson a couple weeks ago. I was let go from a job I held for almost 22 years and the one thing I wish I had done was go to HR when there was a concern about my job and how I was being treated. People do not like to do it and some say it does not do much good, but GO. Get your concerns documented and show you were trying to make things better. I was advised by several, in my area and by past upper level mgmt to go to HR and did not. Don't be bitchy and whiny, if you have a legitimate concern and are not aware you were doing anything wrong, go to HR and talk about it.
Lesley Weatherford HR is not there to protect you, it’s there to protect the company. They were created to make sure the company manages their “human resources” effectively and that means following the employment lawyers recommendations when firing or laying people off. In my opinion when they get health insurance figured out in this country, most people would rather work for themselves than work for an employer. Who the hell wants to be infantilized into asking to take time off, being nervous about leaving the office at the end of the day and being nervous about taking time off.
1:27 - You're wrong. What you're actually referring to is at-will employment, not right-to-work. And unless you're under contract, at-will employment is in virtually every state in the nation. The TRUE MEANING of the right-to-work law is that if you're in a right-to-work state, you are not legally obligated to join a union as a condition of employment.
I got fired cause they said the way the companies going we can't afford to pay you. Said I was not getting enough done in the day. But here's the kicker they never once ever came to me and said we notice hour going little too slow maybe try picking up the speed. So if they never talk to me how am I suppose to know if I'm doing anything wrong. I thought it was all good. I think it was a little unfair.
My feeling when the moment youre fired is like your heart dropped in deep pressure like youve committed crime then sentenced you .afterwards once you got out. Even youre free. You also have a bad image to community and to other companies that decided to never promote you. Being terminated at job is equal to criminal record I dont have a first job yet because of these nightmares
My manager made up lies about me to HR now I'm afraid I won't get another job. Even my coworkers told my boss these things never happened but she's buddy buddy with HR so I'm so lost....
Even if that is the case, it is against the law for employers to give you a bad reference. All HR has to do is give potential employers your start date with the company, your end date with the company, and that's it. If at any interview they ask why you left, just say that they no longer saw you as a perfect fit for the company, it was a great experience, yadda, yadda, yadda....
I was fired from Publix after 6 years for having an alcohol abuse problem in 2010 even though I went to the hospital for treatment and presented a doctor's note, they fired me regardless. Although big companies supposedly have an employee assistance program who helps such employees who have a drug or alcohol problem, they really don't help them so I don't even know why the EAP even exists, they should just say that if you ever become unable to perform your job due to an illness or personal issue, then we will immediately terminate you so you will have plenty of time to get well although it would have to be without income.
My first job McDonalds. Worst job ever i was working there for like 2 or 3 months they had my at the front register. I tried my best to work everyday for long hours but i have panic disorder to its complicated. One day i was working and i had a panic attack so i ran to the back and like moments later my boss comes yelling at me. " your on my time no one said u could come to the back blah blah blah" so i walked out. I came back the next day to get my check. The boss wouldn't even look at me i had to ask for my check from another employee no one would tell me i was fired until the boss pulled another girl to the side and told her to tell me to give in my uniform. Worst job ever
I just got fired on zoom, I am going to sit back for at least a week to plan my next move. It’s painful to not feel appreciated when all managers are against you
Oh in the UK that would be illegal you cannot give a negative reference(referral) all references do in this country is confirm that you were an employee from x date to x date. For that reason companies here will often as for a character reference which is normally someone who has known you for years and is willing to give a personal recommendation.
try getting hurt, being 100% honest get screwed, then written up for any little thing, gradually over the years getting worse... then fired for helping the company when the boss was unreachable
It's very unfortunate that this is the crap that ppl have to deal with because of such shit bosses/managers. But that's the way it is so we have to be able to navigate the tough place we call "work".
My new boss wants me out after 14 years! He is trying to say i am not performing blaming under investment in IT on me. I have a recruiter on the case and he says I am the best guy on his books, but I have barely slept or been able to eat for the last week.
In a non-union employment setting, the sad reality is that if your boss wants you gone, he (or she) will find some lame reason to justify getting rid of you.
Great advice. Pardon me for being nitpicky, but "right to work" means you're not forced to join a union. What you are referring to is "at will employment" which is pretty much all US states, though some may have a public policy exception or implied contract exception. My home state of New York is not right to work, and has both of those exceptions along with a few others, but employers can still fire you out of the blue and you may have no legal recourse.
I know lots of yt channels on this topic find it hard to answer the side of a legitimate firing... The answer for that is to 1st step is to improve yourself and become a better person while addressing that flaw that got you fired... then the next step is you need character whitenesses that will recommend you to new job prospects, if you have improved they will even tell the prospective employer that you are in better shape and doing well.. Atleast that what i have experienced in my life
I got fired because I asked coworkers if they were ready to die... for the afterlife... I made it clear I was talking about heaven, but it makes evil people uncomfortable when you talk about their character, so the evil system got rid of me. But I told them: THE CURSE IS A BLESSING. I have been persecuted for being a Christian. Great is my reward in heaven!
Boss: I’m sorry you’re services are no longer required Me: started my own structural/engineering consulting firm. Am doing a lot better than “the boss” who still works for somebody. Sometimes you just have to risk it and go even if you might fail at it.

I was recently fired but i dont believe i was ever given a fair chance. I wasn't trained properly to begin with. I made one minor mistake in the beginning but corrected it. Then I had an incident that was originally blamed on me but found out to not be my fault. I was placed on an extended probationary period for it even tho i wasn't at fault. Well i ended up being late one time in the 7 months i was there and due to being on my extended probation period they fired me. I have a job previous to this one that was basically the same thing. I had no issues there and only left because the other job was closer. I tried going back to my old job but they have a policy of not hiring back employees that resigned or got terminated. Should i even list the one i got fired from or just list the other one i had no problems at?
Hello. It's a bit tricky to leave a 7 month gap on a resume. You'll have to craft up a great excuse as to why you weren't working if you decide to do that. OR just leave it on the resume and if they question you (assuming they call for a referral), explain the situation. What type of work do you do?
well...in my case I was in a company for six months but however they have decided to terminate me due to attendance issues which I tried to improve..now traffic in my area is no joke.. 20 minute travel time can become two hours because of so many problems on the road, that have resulted in my attendance issue in the first place...when I applied for my next jobs they have questioned me as to why I have left my previous company and I would just say that I have a sick family member to attend to that have resulted my tardiness...but they're okay now and I don't think it's gonna be a problem anymore....i'd say if you were questioned about your previous job and you were fired because of performance.. say the problem.. then say the resolution so as not to experience the same problem again
These days most smart employers will just verify dates of employment and salary. Nothing more. If I was let go and my prior company/boss was bad mouthing me they'd be facing a lawsuit.
@@learnitfromwilliam I have family that work in HR. I know. Going into details about a person's former employment opens the company up to potential legal liability. No one wants to risk that. The only exception would be jobs with government agencies requiring certain level security clearances (law enforcement, etc)
I got fired partly because" I went to the bathroom too much" I'm pre dietetic!! I also found out I was pregnant a week after I was screwed. I told them I was feeling sick and needed to clean my teeth. I was VERY depressed working at Walmart... so it was VERY hard to be upbeat!! When I was DENIED raises because of the bathroom!! 😡😡 I hate Walmart!! Their the worst!! Been unemployed for a year. I'm looking to SUE thanks They also screwed with my hours I would work 1 to 10 then forced to come in at 5am, 6 am. So I couldn't stay real active. I was working like a mad women to get OUT I couldn't. NO job would interview me 😭 SO much more...
I called in sick at my 6 am to 6 pm 7 days a week oilfield job under the 100+ F Texas sun with "working lunch" for only break, and next day I got fired.
Thanks for the video! I have a question, I still live at home with my parents because I can't afford to move out yet and right now I work at a crappy fast food restaurant just to get by. Whenever I try to apply for a better job with better pay my Father specifically always shoots me down and throws my motivation out the window saying stuff like you should become a manager at that fast food place blah blah blah. What he doesn't realize is how much I hate this job and the fact that it stressed me to the point that I have started smoking cigars pretty frequently. I guess my question is how do I not let what my Father says or others opinion interfere with my goals for something better in life?
Hello Ryan. That's tough my friend and very unfortunate that you have a father who is going against the good intentions of his son. It sounds to me that you want to create a better life for yourself but he's holding you down. The good news is YOU'RE in control of that, not him. Let me ask you a few questions so I can help. 1. Are you working just one job? 2. Are you going to school? 3. What is your ideal career (what you really want to do in life)? 4. What do you do in your "spare" time? 5. Do you mind telling me your age? by the way...you can send me a direct private message too so we can discuss this rather than a public comment.
I got fired because someone accused me of calling some one a bad word on the floor in the warehouse. They called me at HR and manager said that this was very silly but that the office made a desicion to fire me over that and of how they have heard of my 2 previous write ups from other incidents that i have never started. For this last one is about what he said she said without proof of it. I was not even called to be asked about what happend and if it was true or not. Not even gave me the chance to defend myself over something i didnt do.
Write everything down in small notes or just a piece of paper and always carry it with you while on the job or even when you are not on the job but you want to remember smg important in order not to lose the job
First step is taking ownership that you've screwed up (which you've done). 2nd step is to analyze what you're doing wrong. 3rd, is to stop doing what you've been doing and figure out how to do the job correctly. Perhaps you need some coaching from someone at your job?
I got fired twice. Once was after 3 days however i was only shadowing and i did absolutely nothing wrong and they fired me. Second job was yesterday after 3 days. I can't stand it but I'm glad i have others who have gone throuh the same
I got fired - I had managers telling the employees in staff meetings stuff that is against Canada labour code. And I was the only person in a room of 20 people to speak up and tell them what they are doing is breaking the law. I was the first to let go. Then 6 months later most of them were let go..... I’d want to love my job , but if your managers don’t have class and are not that smart ...... do you really want to work for that company ? It was a mixed blessing !
Good for you standing your ground and having ethics. I’ve always opened my mouth and got a lot of respect from management because I spoke up. I hope you find a better place to work.
@@learnitfromwilliam yes - now I make more money , 5 weeks paid holidays , unlimited sick days and I love my job and everyone is treated with respect !
Thanks for the video! I was recently fired yesterday. It was my first job out of college. I was given 30 days to improve my job quality and even though I felt I improved, but my boss felt I did not improve enough to justify continued employment. I had been in my first job a week shy of 5 months. At the time of my leaving, my supervisor told me he can put a good word for me. Some of my co-workers also told me they would put a good word for me. What is scaring me is that they might call HR or my boss and ask for how I ended employment in the company. I was told that the official word would be that the end of employment was due to mutual agreement, but I have no way to confirm that. If the reasons for my firing are out there (poor performance) I worry iI will never get another job. Is there anything you could recommend someone in my situation? I hope to hear back from you soon. Thank you
Hi Francisco. I'm assuming you're a young guy? If so you have two options. 1. Don't worry about a future employer calling for references because sometimes they never do. And even if they do, trust that your previous boss will give you a good word. It looks to me that you didn't burn a bridge and it was mutual so I think you'll be OK. 2. Don't put this job on your resume and it'll look like you're still "fresh" out of college and it's your first job. This wouldn't be a bad thing especially if the job doesn't pertain to the field you studied. Hope that makes sense.
Thank you for the swift reply. I have thought about not putting that particular job experience in my resume, but that makes me have an 8 month gap between graduation and today that presumably I would have been doing nothing, which is a total of 8 months (on paper, since I was spending my time in the work I was fired from). The job description I held was supposedly a mechanical engineer job, but I hardly made any decision or anything at all that required engineering knowledge. So I am left in this awkward position in which I was in a job that has "engineer" in the title, but my responsibilities were hardly engineering related, while the other option is going back to my state when I was just a graduate with absolutely no experience. I hope This doesn't make my question convoluted. I hope it reaches you at a good time. Have a nice rest of the day.
I get it. Yea the word "engineer" gets thrown around so loosely that you really never know who truly IS an engineer. But that's OK. Just put it on your resume and see what happens. I think you'll be OK considering the circumstances. But even if you do leave it off the resume, 8 months after graduating can be chalked up to alot of things. Perhaps you had some personal things to take care of right out of school, finishing up some "projects", taking care of a family member. Know what I mean. It's really not a bad predicament to be in. It's alot easier at your stage than someone whose been in the workforce for 10 yrs and has an 8 month gap..now that's a crappy scenario...
I was got fired because i didnt handle an emergency situation properly, and i wasnt trained for it, and i did it out of the goodness of my heart and still handled it , just handled it the wrong way, if i was trained i would know exactly what to have done. It still stings because i really loved that job. What hurts me more is i wasnt even fired for bad performance, did really well at my job. I feel as though i should have been let off with at least a warning, and say this is how we handle thing.
What if I worked for a company for 2 years and I quit and came back so they considered it 3 months probation and I reported my on duty supervisor to my manager for harassing me at work and pubically humiliating me... they said they would look into it and took these allegations seriously the next day they terminated me.
My supervisor likes my work efnic I was having problems with my child acting up at school so I lost my job for 6 months so I decide to come back so now I got rehired
I've also heard prospective employers if they do a reference check mostly it's just to verify if a person actually worked for xyz company and that a former employer can only confirm a person worked for them as well and just give the dates.
Elizabeth Schiada not true Well here in the UK the reasons for leaving section also has to be answered by the employer. Some employers do not bother checking but other companies do an in depth check and it really isn’t difficult for them to obtain an in depth account of the details surrounding ones previous work place.
Information Technology Q & A Show even in the US if a company wants to dig deeper and get more information from a previous employer regarding a candidate all they have to do is ask questions. Previous employers very rarely refuse to give out information if they are asked for it
Someone was fired because someone said they said but they were the ones that actually said it. It’s the second time the office manager has accused of something someone else did. This office manager constantly hazes employees until they quit or she pulls something out of a hat to fire someone whenever she decides she wants to hire a friend.
What state are you in? I'm in Washington state, which is a right to work state and I, as a supervisor, am not allowed to make any negative comments regarding a past employee. I'm pretty much restricted to date of hire, period of employment, position held, etc. etc. anything else can get us slapped with a lawsuit.
If you don't do what you're told, then that might happen. Why didn't you collect the buggies? Good news is you're only 16 so let this be a lesson learned!
I don't know about US but here in Canada gov't can help you choose a second career and provide you grants. However if your already in IT field and you have some savings after you've been fired. You can use gov't assistance to upgrade yourself. Food for thought
I got fired for “calling” in even tho I had people cover my shifts and I only called in one time Bc of my doc appointment but other than that one call in I had people cover my shifts for me and i only missed three work days and other people don’t call or text and they don’t show up to work I’m having a hard time understanding how people manage like that
I got fired because I touched my phone with gloves on in a kitchen. My manager didn’t say anything to me. My boss just called me and fired me 1 hour before my shift.
That sucks and sorry to hear that. You must live in a "right to work" state where they can fire without reason. But for them to just give you the boot with no explanation tells me they are a highly unethical company and I would never want to work there. Wish you success finding another opportunity.
If you are fired without justification, there is almost nothing you can do about it. The best way is to prevent the act before that happens. Reality is: employers can fired any employee without just cause. Something that could prevent that to happen is a union contract. That is the only option under labor law that gives an employee legal protection.
That's crazy, brother I got fired since my job went slow, and I apply for unemployment and I got approved!! It's money I paid all this years, no one is giving me a favor, it's my money, and it's time to collect them, I applyed and it shows how much I have in total and how much I'll get every week, I kept collecting for 4 months until I find a great job.

Hi everyone 🤗, This is my 1st time being fired. I was wrongfully terminated, due to the fact that I had got injury on the job at a senior living facility, my position was a caregiver. Long story short my "ex' employment" fired me at a meeting that they wanted me to attend to which I did, but my "ex' employment" end up firing me in the lobby infront of everyone. I'm not sure what to put on applications "when they ask if you ever been fired? & also in interviews what should I say"? Do anyone has any suggestions? I really appreciate it :) Btw; I do want to get back into the field of healthcare, continue my work as caregiver, since my career/goal is to become a nurse. I need gain as much of experience as I can, since I took some time off for schooling....
Did you go to the HR dept? That would have been the first thing to do especially if you feel it was a wrongful termination AND the fact that they humiliated you. How long did you work there? If you were indeed not at fault, then just explain what happened to future employers. As long as you're honest and genuine, it should be fine.
I was wrongfully fired over talking to another caregiver about when can she start I wanted a weeks vacation . I also did more then beyond and over to make my client happy and even cleaning a cat litter box because her daughter Sabrina Bell is pregnant and walking a dog that was not a part of the job . July 15, ,2017 Lucille Bell said your services are no longer needed . I Even got housing to get her a walk in shower in her house . Sincerely Louise Snippert.
Believe it or not but I have watched your video 4 times. As inspiration, while I do my work. Something about knowing that I could get fired being constantly on my mind makes me want to work really hard to not get fired, weird huh?
I'm glad the video inspired you. I guess we all have different motivations and doing your best so you don't get fired could be one of them. Although if you do what you're supposed to and do it well, you shouldn't have to worry. Although there's no "job security" so just remember that. Thanks for watching!
I appreciate your response. Lately, I have been feeling very overwhelmed with my job. I am a career consultant for advanced technologies on a cooperate level. I have considered lately that I need to find a new job, not because I am bad at the one I am currently doing but because the stress of juggling so many different clients (part of being a consultant) has caused some issues with putting work away once I get home with my family. I push 100% constantly but there is always more to do and I have trouble letting that go, especially working remotely and taking care of a 2 1/2-year-old child. Perhaps, this is a video you could possibly do? Learning how to separate work from home or perhaps knowing when it's time to move away from a job that may be toxic to you personally. Of course, this doesn't necessarily mean that job or company is toxic, just may be toxic for your situation whatever it may be. Anyways, appreciate that advice and wish you the best in creating more great career oriented videos. With the change happening in America, we will need more educational resources that will give great foundational knowledge in work ethic. -Lion
Good video. It seems most companies these days if they are smart are going to simply say that all they will verify are dates of employment, salary and that’s about it. Aside from criminal activity against a former employee, it’s a slippery legal slope. A “bad employee” in 95% of cases is simply the opinion of the former employer / boss. A bad reference could be grounds for a lawsuit for slander. I am not an attorney either.
Nae, I'm not sure what comment I made that you're contesting but you are correct. There are some states that are "right to work" states that can fire without reason.
I just got let go of a company I never started. They said I never was able to work or didn't respond. They never called me or emailed me.All I did was wait.
Got two write ups, one for calling out too much which included 4 days I left for a family death, so I couldn't call for the next 30 days so I didn't. Three days I either came late (which I never do) or left early. we are suppose to make up time but I usually cant due to other personal problems. For the day I did come late I made up the time but that wasn't good enough for my supervisor. She wrote me up in front of everyone I was embarrassed. I usually sign the write ups and don't talk back to the higher ups but this time I felt like it was unfair. I told my supervisor I will not be signing my write up and she said "we can fire you for your attitude you know that right? I'm saving your job by writing you up". Now I cant help but feel that she is out there to get me fired, what do I do? p.s she is leaving for maternity leave soon and I'm hearing from other coworkers that she might not come back after her 12 weeks.
Hello Alex, if you got written up for bereavement, then you should go straight to HR cuz that's bullshit. As for being late, that's on you to clean it up. Do everything you can to get to work on time. And I'm glad you stood up to her. Who is taking her spot while she's on leave? Whoever that is, you need to show them you're reliable and a great worker. In other words, make a good impression on them so that if she does return, you've got someone on your side. OR, if you want to quit, then weigh all your options first before jumping ship. Write down all the good and bad and see which way the scale tips. Hope that helps.
Information Technology Q & A Show thank you for replying so quick. my supervisor isn't informing us if she is getting replaced. She doesn't give out much information. I did go to HR, and my supervisor found out and was very upset since she felt like I was trying to get her in trouble which she stated. She did inform me that in the state we are in,she can fire me for whatever reason. so looking into the work manual will not help me even if I have notes for an excuse absent. I try to ignore her but it's very hard when she has to go around the office and ask about why I call out since I'm not giving her a real reason.
That's an unfortunate situation and I'm sorry you have to deal with such a shitty supervisor. All I can say is that you need to work on not being late and not call out. You may have to find other work to get away from that non-sense.
Alex, hope you don't mind that I reply. It's a shame that there are jerks for bosses, and yes, sounds like you have one.. Hopefully she will be replaced and you can get a fresh start. If you do get another boss, use words like, Ok, I can do that or no problem, when they ask for something or give instructions. Not saying you don't do this, but if helps. Not asking you to Kiss butt, but showing interest in their needs will help. Again, I can tell she is a problem by you comment, but hope you can get a fresh start. Good luck -
+ Information Technology Q&A Show What should you do in a situation where you were at your job 5 years and then suddenly your fired by someone in corporate (someone you don't know) for not following proper protocol. (so suddenly).
That's a tough situation but you have to put it on your resume since it was 5yrs of working history. Be prepared to explain to future employers what happened. You may want to talk to the HR dept as well to get the full story.
what if u get fired, because ur boss brings up something like 2 months after the fact, that he says u did something, instead of doing it the week of, he waits all ths time and is like so whaty happend that day, and im like that was 2 months ago, so whos to say hes not doing it just to get rid of u
I just got fired after only three weeks because they felt like I wasn’t independent and did not take initiative when I was doing everything they trained me to do so far, mostly without being asked. They were just beginning to train me, how am I supposed to take initiative when I have no clue what I’m supposed to do? I can only think that they meant I should have asked to be trained more?
I made a video on this topic. You have to be VERY careful how you act on social these days. Employers are watching every move! Yea, you'd think it's your personal life, but unfortunately, that's not how it works in the real world.
I was fired for approving a cash refund unaware that they paid by card. Employee called requiring help. The customer had his ticket stubbs and I do recall seeing him earlier by her register as I was walking into the office prior to the refund. I should have just checked the receipt just to play it safe cause corporate found out through camera that the tickets were purchased through card from her. Corporate downright terminated me when they discovered it and everyone else were encouraging me to fight for my position as assistant manager back. Truth is I was relieved. I know my actions were reckless and even the general manager thought that the most I should get is a suspension. Meh. I was grateful that they wanted to help me get my job back but **** it! I did acknowledge that what I did could have been a scam had it been someone else. It could have been an attempt to get money out of their card since they wouldn't be able to use the atm. I didn't make the transaction but I did make a foolish assumption that the employee took precaution if the customer was going to make a purchase that was over $200.00. I figure if the card was actually stolen and refunded through cash, someone would have visited questioning the transaction. Nope. It turned out there wasn't any scam and it was legit. Months later I find a better job at Dillard's a a Dock worker starting me off with $11.00/hr. Don't have to deal with the customers and most of everything is easy to do. I never come back home a filthy mess. Much better than being paid $9.00/hr when I was assistant manager. Some jobs just aren't worth fighting. I told some of my employees prior to my termination that if you are looking for a good pay then forget working at the theater! It should only be temporary. The theater is very stingy with the money. Dillard's should know I was terminated as I mentioned it in the application though they never questioned it during the interview. I probably won't ever be Sales Associate but I am happy with Dock.
Yesterday I was fired. The reason: My boss told me a customer followed him around when he was out shopping and told him that I wasn't a good range safety officer (I worked at an indoor gun range and gun store). My boss also twisted my words with a customer about range safety. The hint: Twisting my words with a customer I spoke to about range safety. How did I handle it? I understand his reason, but I did call him out on twisting my words. He objected of course, and told me I was lying. I stood there staring at him the entire time as he did not make any eye contact with me the entire time. Despite being fired, I've shrugged it off even though it was a job I did enjoy doing. I simply told myself, "Whatever is out of your control let it go and move on." Am I looking for a job today? NOPE! Because my investment finally paid off. :D
I've suffered an injury and was out 2 weeks under doctor's care. Been with my company 20 years. When I returned they dumped another team members work on me after firing him. Now I have double work, under meds I can't take at work for pain and need surgery with NO overtime and expected to be accurate with accounts I'm not trained on. This is a huge company. The new manager is a dummy that knows nothing about the business and doesn't care to learn and I have to train her in the process. I can't even escalate anything to her that is beyond my pay grade. She has an associates compared to my degree. I feel really screwd as I need surgery and think they are trying to fire me before it happens. Any suggestions?
I was fired from a job 7 years ago, I need to have this job on my application. I was with this company just under 10 years. This company claimed gross misconduct, but the state of Florida unemployment stated that I was wrongfully terminated. How do I comment in the "Reason for Leaving" section, without lying and making myself or the company look bad?
Hello Mandi. That was 7 yrs ago. What have you put on previous job applications since then? I would put down exactly what you said "wrongfully terminated" and when they ask, you tell them the truth.
I was in the US Navy and I am currently finishing my work study contract at my local VA. I have just graduated and need to find a job. The application I am filling out states I only need 6 years of prior jobs, but since the job I am applying for is in the same field as the one I was wrongfully terminated I know I need to include it.
what do I do If I was fired with our any warnings, making false accusations and only having some rules apply to others? please reply OH and also they said they "obviously" won't be giving me a character reference
Wow, sorry to hear that Sally. That's a tough call. If you worked there for less than 3-6 months, then don't put it on your resume. OR, if you need to include it on your resume, make sure you have a great explanation for the potential employers in case they ask during the interview.
WHAT DO I HAVE TO DO I LOST MY JOB AFTER HAVING A SURGERY BEEN THERE OVER 16 YEARS NOW CANT PAY PAY MY MORGAGE NO INCOME WHAT CAN I DO IM IN ZURICH CANADA

A buddy of mine got fired for 3 no-call, no-shows. That was his method of quitting. From his point of view, he quit. From the employer's pov, he was terminated for cause. He worked at the company 3 years and this incident just happened 2 weeks ago. What would be your advice for him? Should he leave it off his CV and tell prospective employers he spent the past 3 years traveling, taking time off for family, etc? Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
The only reason we don’t have universal healthcare is because significant numbers of people would move into consulting or temp projects and deprive employers of employees. Who on earth would want to work in these conditions? I switched from full time employment years ago and the only issue I have is health insurance but other than that it’s been great.
I tend to screw up a lot. I donated plasma but I passed out and was rushed to the ER. I barely ate anything that day before donating. I also didn't drink enough water before doing it. I know I didn't eat or drink enough before doing this. which is the reason the other two plasma places banned me because they couldn't trust me, I have failed many times. it breaks my heart I screw up so much. I kinda wanted die because of it. if I screw up again I don't think my heart can take it anymore
just got fired after my job at a year and my boss called me and he said he doesn’t like my work And I was calling out a lot let me tell you something I get sick very easily they don’t care about the employees specially when you’re disabled
It was a total accident. I made a video a few years ago about ppl who work in I.T. It wasn't a very positive video either (ironically) but it got thousands of views. I also started getting tons of questions from ppl in the comments section of that video about I.T. So it occurred to me that maybe I could start a Q & A "show" here on the channel and just start answering questions and helping ppl. At that time I was at 99 subscribers-- fast forward to now, about 15 months later and my sub base is over 5K and I'm having fun doing this and it's obviously helping ppl. It was totally unexpected.
Well you my friend are a blessing, breath of fresh air for sure. I listen to a lot of speaker here on TH-cam, and I only listen to people that have there act together. If your legs is broken you don't ask a group of plumbers for help they are going to tell you call a doctor. So I come here for knowledge, to hear ppl that know what they are talking, about on a topic or subject. You got it going on my friend, I like what you have to say it like real life. Keep doing what you.
I worked as a produce clerk at qfc and I was only working there for two and never have been late and I've been on time for the past two weeks, and I made a mistake I was 10 minutes late to work and that day I was late my manager wanted to speak to me in his office during my shift and i wasn't aware of the 90 day probation and it is mandatory for all employees to show up on time for those ninety day which I didn't follow up with and broke the rule and he told me that my performance skills was lacking my work ethic and I was tardy and that's what got me fired because of it...tardy just once and I tried to explain myself and the boss just kept declining me and it was a little hurtful because I tried everything I possibly could to ask for a second chance and it wasn't fair either. I was willing to make up for it and then ended up getting terminated. oh well I'm not too stressed about it anymore there are alot more jobs out there for me than just qfc and it sucked but I learned a good lesson.
jstar music Unfortunately, if you’re a non-union employee, you can pretty much be fired at will, especially during probationary periods. With Union employees, there is firing criteria managers have to follow first regardless of how long you’ve been there. So it’s harder to get fired for performance related reasons if you’re working for a place that’s unionized.
I got fired because my co workers told my manager i was shy. WHAT THE FUCK Man...I was legit at the job for a week i was quiete because i was paying attention to what i needed to do all i was saying was ok after what they taught me dont get me wrong being quiete is bad but i was new and learning i usually talk a fuck ton but when the manager told me i was fired my heart rate increased and time flashed at me...as i drove off it kicked in....
Hello Everyone. Please note that I am NOT in the position to provide any type of legal advice on this topic. I made this video as generic as possible to help with ideas on what to do if you get fired. There are ALOT of comments from ppl with very specific circumstances asking for my help that I cannot address. Thanks for understanding.
If you were let go with a severance package, it's more like you were "laid off" than "fired." When many people hear "fired," they tend to think "fired for cause," which is associated with a serious infraction at the workplace. While losing a job in any capacity is demoralizing and can affect your self-esteem, the more you are out in the work force, the more you realize people lose their jobs all the time. The higher up the ladder you go, the more it is an expected risk with any job, and you actually become a desirable candidate when you're a free agent again.
For anyone reading I would try to word it that you mutually decided the position was not a good fit and that you learned a lot and stuck with it. People who are part of Human Resources Department and/or in charge of employment know this happens frequently in the workplace world. I would definitely quote anything in your written performance reviews that show your "strong upward trend" and include a reference or quotation from one of the managers with whom you had a great relationship, if possible. Spin it that you can take it on the chin and keep fighting, make it a positive experience. It might actually help your application much more than you think. Good luck to y'all reading this!
I’d say it’s also important TO NOT LIE about the reasons you were fired, but you also don’t need to tell your next employer every detail about what happened. You don’t want to paint yourself in a bad picture for your next employer.
Well shut the fuck up
Somebody is having a bad day. Go find another channel to watch.
@@learnitfromwilliam no you need to wash your ass out
@@OwolabbyAzeez that's why there is a big difference between "termination" and "laid off"
MOST employers in this day and age don't care about what you have done in the past(as far as employment is concerned). They care about WHAT YOU CAN DO FOR THEM in the present.I'm 29yrs old and I've had 5 jobs in my life.Gotten fired from 3 of them and quit 1 job WITHOUT a 2weeks notice.I'm on my 6th job making 100,000K+ as a oil field truck driver.Slavery ended a long time ago and people should remove the emotion from work and/or working 1 particular job.This is my humble opinion.
Agreed that most U.S. based corporate companies really don't care much about the employee base despite what many of them say. Bottom line is that it's very difficult in the work force these days and only getting worse.
However, jumping from job to job especially in a chosen profession is not a good idea. But I do understand there are diff scenario's that can affect this.
Thanks for watching.
Information Technology Q & A Show Sometimes staying too long in one job is not good either. The majority of these companies are looking for specific skill sets and if you've been on a job for too long and you haven't developed the skill sets you would most likely be rejected! I read an article on the internet where this guy owned his own company and he saw resumes of candidates that stayed on a job for like 10 years or more - he automatically threw their resumes in the trash! Just some food for thought!
Damn an oil field driver? No way... Isn't that like one of those 18 hours a day kind of job?
Good for you man
tsohgallik Yep, and some don't last very long. They think they are going to do this year in year out............right. I read 6 weeks for some. The hours can be even 22/day. Obviously one has to be young and healthy.
I got fired because my skills weren't up to the level they wanted me to be. But they hardly even trained me. They were to busy to train me. And they never even gave me a warning. And the worst part is that I trained the person that replaced me. He's a mechanical engineer and they wanted to save money so they got rid of me.
It's unfortunate but that is common. One tip, NEVER rely on your employer to train you on skills that you should be acquiring on your own. They only need to train you on specifics that relate to their company only. Ie, home grown software, CRM applications, HR topics, etc.
@@learnitfromwilliam well my job at the time was fixing MRI machines so it's something that you can't even learn in school other than learning it from the company that you work for. But getting fired was the best thing that happened to me. Now I have a better job with higher pay and I'm happy there.
ME TOO
I feel ya, the exact same thing happened to me
I just got my slow talk from my bos where he keeps reminding me i am not qualified for the job and how im not performing up to the standard.. To me it just sound stupid cause 1. When my manager (my bos) hired me there was no problem at all.. The qualification in reality is just if you know how to operate the software.. I know how to and i am good at it.. Even tho i do admit my knowledge of the job is basically 0. I worked for more then 5 years and just yesterday i become the guy who is not qualified.. Also.. I wont bullshit that my performance is great or anything but i do get the job done.. I did my best and i do it fast because when it comes to my assingment its always urgent.. What a load of bullshit.. Im gonna hand my resign latter in another month.. I know when im not needed..
I got fired because I said I no longer trusted my manager. He fired me for that lol. Oh well. I wasn't happy anyway. It sucks when you know your job isn't working out. But I feel free. Money isn't everything. Nothing worse than going to a job and a boss that you HATE!!!!! Now I get to leave all that behind. I just plan on being honest. I was good at what I did, it was my boss I didn't get along with. It happens
I hear you. It really sucks but I do wish you success in the future!
@Kimberly K
Apply for the same stream in consultancies.....they will help for sure...
Bad bosses don't stay for long. Either they eventually move on to another job or they get fired from Regional management if other employers are having a bad time with this specific manager.
Thats a great attitude. I had a feeling i was going to get fired for a week straight. The dread of not knowing affected my work performance.
Angela L i have the same issue i just got fired yesterday with no concrete reason.but before that the company is getting toxic and i dont like the environment anymore.i feel mad when they fired me but i feel relief also coz i dont want to stay there anymore. and right it's not always about the money if u have a very toxic job.
I was set up by my boss, she then fired me..
Same here
i know a guy who got fired for calling out and going to the hospital even with a doctors note. thats why being an employee sucks and people should really consider looking for other sources of income rather than just having one. but when your out of a job, your new job is to get a job.
That's unfortunate for him. In some states companies can fire with no reason and that sucks. If he was a good employee with a good record, I would probably get a lawyer on that.
Not everyone is cut out to be self employed or have a side hustle but I agree with you on that.
And yes, if you don't have a job, your JOB is to find a job! In fact I have a video specifically on that topic.
Thanks for watching!
Yup and good luck finding one.
Exactly what’s happening to me, I was out of sick hours but I was horribly sick and I got a doctors note and now they’re asking for a excuse for every single time I missed work to stay in one day...
U r still better than my neighbor Cuong!
Here's some motivation. U still have some time. U r not 60. My neighbor got fired when he was 50 around christmas 🎄 and his bday! How cursed is that?
Take guts to admit u got issues. All humans do. U r not like my neighbor Cuong. He was arrested 2x for his rage against his supervisors! Then he got fired around christmas 2012! Sought revenge and retribution, lost 2 court cases to his employers, & lost thousands of dollars to attorney fees! The misery doesnt stop here. He doesn't go out unless necessary. No job. No vacations. No eating out. Doesn't celebrate any kind of holiday as he lost interest in anything socially-related.
Almost no social interactions outside his family.
Wife works and cooks for him daily. He has 2 junk cars sitting in his backyard and many other clutters. He also collects cans and bottles to get paid for recycling ♻️.
I mean Cuong is a miserable guy who has no real, honest hope in his life anymore! That's 10 years of misery n denial of his major, mental illness conditions. He likes to put up a tough, fake front in front of others, but his pain and agony overpowers him inside. His false pride 😤 is what leads him to self destruction! What a shame.
People on this site have more courage than 🐔 Cuong! A failure covers n lies about his issues. That's Cuong.
U r definitely a good, useful person in our society! YOU ARE FREAKIN, PRECIOUS AND UNIQUE!
Wish u accept Jesus Christ as your Savior so u can go to heaven after this life. God doesn't expect you to be perfect nor sinless. He just wants u to believe in Him as your Savior for your sins so u can go to heaven after this life.
I got fired because I didn’t smile enough, unfortunately in most states laws don’t protect employees ,they barely respect race and religion therefore companies can do whatever they want with you
I hate jobs that force you to smile
He said I didn't have emotional intelligence for the job
Employers don't care if you got fired. Most don't even check. It's all about selling your skills in a professional way. Eye contact shows everything.
Not in this job market. Trust me if you admit to being terminated you will most definitely not get the job.
@@luvfreedom1470 it's actually if you don't admit, then get hired you will be fired. Telling the truth, employers gain trust in you. Then would still hire you. Don't be a bullshitter is what employers aways say.
@@dave7701 Yeah that never happens actually. 99.99999% of HR personnel are only going to ever confirm your employment dates.

I was told to never refer to yourself as having been fired. Call it, involuntary separation. It works too.

That sucks. I've broken so many things at work, I just called my supervisors and said it broke and they took care of it. Sometimes stuff just brakes and you just happened to be using it at the time.
They fired you because they didn’t want to accept they fucked up smh
Roll tide
I just got fired from my job because of other people gossiping about me. My GM did not confront me, waited for me to leave my shift, and texted me 5 minutes later, firing me. Over gossip. For no reason. And did not talk to me about it.
I was her best worker, so this is extremely frustrating and uncalled for. I'm going to go to the store owner about it, because he has no idea of half the things she does to the store and people. Crazy.
Fired you over a text message??? I'm absolutely astonished at this. Yes, definitely call the owner and report her. She needs to be fired.
i feel you i know what you talking about..same here
I doubt you did anything about it.. I say throws eggs at that bitches car and dump milk in her cars engine.... Anyways did you got a job anywhere else? That hazing of her car seems creative though :-D I say one or two eggs.
I believe that's grounds for unfair dismissal - you might wanna look into that....
They aren't allowed to give a bad reference they can refuse to provide a reference
Jasmine K. That was my understanding too! There are 1 or 2 things more he said (video and comments) that makes me wonder if this is a snowball job.
People hesitate to do this, but I learned a hard lesson a couple weeks ago. I was let go from a job I held for almost 22 years and the one thing I wish I had done was go to HR when there was a concern about my job and how I was being treated. People do not like to do it and some say it does not do much good, but GO. Get your concerns documented and show you were trying to make things better. I was advised by several, in my area and by past upper level mgmt to go to HR and did not. Don't be bitchy and whiny, if you have a legitimate concern and are not aware you were doing anything wrong, go to HR and talk about it.
Totally agree! Sorry to hear that. Thank you for watching.
Lesley Weatherford HR is not there to protect you, it’s there to protect the company. They were created to make sure the company manages their “human resources” effectively and that means following the employment lawyers recommendations when firing or laying people off.
In my opinion when they get health insurance figured out in this country, most people would rather work for themselves than work for an employer. Who the hell wants to be infantilized into asking to take time off, being nervous about leaving the office at the end of the day and being nervous about taking time off.
They see it as bitching and whining.
I went to HR about the way I was being treated and was actually let go a few weeks later. HR can be a dead end or the beginning of the end.
@@ReviewsFromThe6 yup. They don't care how you feel.
1:27 - You're wrong. What you're actually referring to is at-will employment, not right-to-work. And unless you're under contract, at-will employment is in virtually every state in the nation. The TRUE MEANING of the right-to-work law is that if you're in a right-to-work state, you are not legally obligated to join a union as a condition of employment.
I got fired cause they said the way the companies going we can't afford to pay you. Said I was not getting enough done in the day. But here's the kicker they never once ever came to me and said we notice hour going little too slow maybe try picking up the speed. So if they never talk to me how am I suppose to know if I'm doing anything wrong. I thought it was all good. I think it was a little unfair.
Agreed, they should have approached you about it. Sounds to me like they just needed an excuse. Wish you luck in the future. Thanks for watching.
My feeling when the moment youre fired is like your heart dropped in deep pressure like youve committed crime then sentenced you .afterwards once you got out. Even youre free. You also have a bad image to community and to other companies that decided to never promote you. Being terminated at job is equal to criminal record
I dont have a first job yet because of these nightmares
getting terminated or laid off is an everyday thing...but yeah I have to agree...its like being sentenced in a court room...I felt the pain and stress
My manager made up lies about me to HR now I'm afraid I won't get another job. Even my coworkers told my boss these things never happened but she's buddy buddy with HR so I'm so lost....
Yeah, when stuff like that goes down, good luck finding another job.
Even if that is the case, it is against the law for employers to give you a bad reference. All HR has to do is give potential employers your start date with the company, your end date with the company, and that's it. If at any interview they ask why you left, just say that they no longer saw you as a perfect fit for the company, it was a great experience, yadda, yadda, yadda....

I was fired from Publix after 6 years for having an alcohol abuse problem in 2010 even though I went to the hospital for treatment and presented a doctor's note, they fired me regardless. Although big companies supposedly have an employee assistance program who helps such employees who have a drug or alcohol problem, they really don't help them so I don't even know why the EAP even exists, they should just say that if you ever become unable to perform your job due to an illness or personal issue, then we will immediately terminate you so you will have plenty of time to get well although it would have to be without income.
My first job McDonalds. Worst job ever i was working there for like 2 or 3 months they had my at the front register. I tried my best to work everyday for long hours but i have panic disorder to its complicated. One day i was working and i had a panic attack so i ran to the back and like moments later my boss comes yelling at me. " your on my time no one said u could come to the back blah blah blah" so i walked out. I came back the next day to get my check. The boss wouldn't even look at me i had to ask for my check from another employee no one would tell me i was fired until the boss pulled another girl to the side and told her to tell me to give in my uniform. Worst job ever

Not the best advice. Never burn bridges. We live in a small world.
@@learnitfromwilliam what about for attendance?
Oh in the UK that would be illegal you cannot give a negative reference(referral) all references do in this country is confirm that you were an employee from x date to x date. For that reason companies here will often as for a character reference which is normally someone who has known you for years and is willing to give a personal recommendation.
I didn't know that. Thanks for the info!! Sounds like a better plan than here in the states. It's cut throat here in the work place.
that makes sense
Just got fired
try getting hurt, being 100% honest get screwed, then written up for any little thing, gradually over the years getting worse... then fired for helping the company when the boss was unreachable
It's very unfortunate that this is the crap that ppl have to deal with because of such shit bosses/managers. But that's the way it is so we have to be able to navigate the tough place we call "work".
Information Technology Q & A Show In my case due to health pain etc I haven't been able to work and it sucks
My new boss wants me out after 14 years! He is trying to say i am not performing blaming under investment in IT on me. I have a recruiter on the case and he says I am the best guy on his books, but I have barely slept or been able to eat for the last week.
In a non-union employment setting, the sad reality is that if your boss wants you gone, he (or she) will find some lame reason to justify getting rid of you.
What if you are collecting social security, you are 74 years old and you get fired after 2 weeks.
I was never fired--I was "laid off", "let go", and "dropped from the project"...to hell with IS/IT jobs after that.
Great advice. Pardon me for being nitpicky, but "right to work" means you're not forced to join a union. What you are referring to is "at will employment" which is pretty much all US states, though some may have a public policy exception or implied contract exception. My home state of New York is not right to work, and has both of those exceptions along with a few others, but employers can still fire you out of the blue and you may have no legal recourse.
It’s cool. You’re not the first person to point that out. But I appreciate the clarification and most importantly, for watching!
I know lots of yt channels on this topic find it hard to answer the side of a legitimate firing... The answer for that is to 1st step is to improve yourself and become a better person while addressing that flaw that got you fired... then the next step is you need character whitenesses that will recommend you to new job prospects, if you have improved they will even tell the prospective employer that you are in better shape and doing well.. Atleast that what i have experienced in my life
I got fired because I asked coworkers if they were ready to die... for the afterlife... I made it clear I was talking about heaven, but it makes evil people uncomfortable when you talk about their character, so the evil system got rid of me. But I told them: THE CURSE IS A BLESSING. I have been persecuted for being a Christian. Great is my reward in heaven!
Maybe stop bringing religion into your job?
dude never talk about religion or politics at your job
Boss: I’m sorry you’re services are no longer required
Me: started my own structural/engineering consulting firm. Am doing a lot better than “the boss” who still works for somebody. Sometimes you just have to risk it and go even if you might fail at it.

I was recently fired but i dont believe i was ever given a fair chance. I wasn't trained properly to begin with. I made one minor mistake in the beginning but corrected it. Then I had an incident that was originally blamed on me but found out to not be my fault. I was placed on an extended probationary period for it even tho i wasn't at fault. Well i ended up being late one time in the 7 months i was there and due to being on my extended probation period they fired me. I have a job previous to this one that was basically the same thing. I had no issues there and only left because the other job was closer. I tried going back to my old job but they have a policy of not hiring back employees that resigned or got terminated. Should i even list the one i got fired from or just list the other one i had no problems at?
Hello. It's a bit tricky to leave a 7 month gap on a resume. You'll have to craft up a great excuse as to why you weren't working if you decide to do that. OR just leave it on the resume and if they question you (assuming they call for a referral), explain the situation.
What type of work do you do?
iri1shman86 omg the same thing happened to me and I’m actually really crushed
iri1shman86 no I wouldn't list it. I would say I was care gfor a relative and they've passed so I'm available again.
Can we reapply to same job after couple of months if the reason of firing was revenue issue or avoid applying in the same company forever
well...in my case I was in a company for six months but however they have decided to terminate me due to attendance issues which I tried to improve..now traffic in my area is no joke.. 20 minute travel time can become two hours because of so many problems on the road, that have resulted in my attendance issue in the first place...when I applied for my next jobs they have questioned me as to why I have left my previous company and I would just say that I have a sick family member to attend to that have resulted my tardiness...but they're okay now and I don't think it's gonna be a problem anymore....i'd say if you were questioned about your previous job and you were fired because of performance.. say the problem.. then say the resolution so as not to experience the same problem again
If you get fired there is no way to apply again
You mean re-apply at the same company? If so, I'd agree, chances are not likely you'll be received well.
These days most smart employers will just verify dates of employment and salary. Nothing more.
If I was let go and my prior company/boss was bad mouthing me they'd be facing a lawsuit.
The only thing a former employer will give are your employment dates. Details about your leaving and the reasons for it will not be divulged.
We only hope...
@@learnitfromwilliam I have family that work in HR. I know. Going into details about a person's former employment opens the company up to potential legal liability. No one wants to risk that.

I got fired because someone accused me of calling some one a bad word on the floor in the warehouse. They called me at HR and manager said that this was very silly but that the office made a desicion to fire me over that and of how they have heard of my 2 previous write ups from other incidents that i have never started. For this last one is about what he said she said without proof of it. I was not even called to be asked about what happend and if it was true or not. Not even gave me the chance to defend myself over something i didnt do.
Coralynn Hernandez smh this law needs to be changed
What do I do if I keep getting fired because I have a bad memory and have a difficult time retaining information?
Not even sure what to tell you other than seek medical advice.
Write everything down in small notes or just a piece of paper and always carry it with you while on the job or even when you are not on the job but you want to remember smg important in order not to lose the job
I don't want to get fired. How do you bounce back on the job if you've screwed up many times?
First step is taking ownership that you've screwed up (which you've done). 2nd step is to analyze what you're doing wrong. 3rd, is to stop doing what you've been doing and figure out how to do the job correctly. Perhaps you need some coaching from someone at your job?
I got fired twice. Once was after 3 days however i was only shadowing and i did absolutely nothing wrong and they fired me. Second job was yesterday after 3 days. I can't stand it but I'm glad i have others who have gone throuh the same
I got fired - I had managers telling the employees in staff meetings stuff that is against Canada labour code. And I was the only person in a room of 20 people to speak up and tell them what they are doing is breaking the law. I was the first to let go. Then 6 months later most of them were let go..... I’d want to love my job , but if your managers don’t have class and are not that smart ...... do you really want to work for that company ? It was a mixed blessing !
Good for you standing your ground and having ethics. I’ve always opened my mouth and got a lot of respect from management because I spoke up. I hope you find a better place to work.
@@learnitfromwilliam yes - now I make more money , 5 weeks paid holidays , unlimited sick days and I love my job and everyone is treated with respect !
Thanks for the video! I was recently fired yesterday. It was my first job out of college. I was given 30 days to improve my job quality and even though I felt I improved, but my boss felt I did not improve enough to justify continued employment. I had been in my first job a week shy of 5 months. At the time of my leaving, my supervisor told me he can put a good word for me. Some of my co-workers also told me they would put a good word for me.
What is scaring me is that they might call HR or my boss and ask for how I ended employment in the company. I was told that the official word would be that the end of employment was due to mutual agreement, but I have no way to confirm that. If the reasons for my firing are out there (poor performance) I worry iI will never get another job.
Is there anything you could recommend someone in my situation? I hope to hear back from you soon.
Thank you
Hi Francisco. I'm assuming you're a young guy? If so you have two options.
1. Don't worry about a future employer calling for references because sometimes they never do. And even if they do, trust that your previous boss will give you a good word. It looks to me that you didn't burn a bridge and it was mutual so I think you'll be OK.
2. Don't put this job on your resume and it'll look like you're still "fresh" out of college and it's your first job. This wouldn't be a bad thing especially if the job doesn't pertain to the field you studied.
Hope that makes sense.
Thank you for the swift reply. I have thought about not putting that particular job experience in my resume, but that makes me have an 8 month gap between graduation and today that presumably I would have been doing nothing, which is a total of 8 months (on paper, since I was spending my time in the work I was fired from). The job description I held was supposedly a mechanical engineer job, but I hardly made any decision or anything at all that required engineering knowledge. So I am left in this awkward position in which I was in a job that has "engineer" in the title, but my responsibilities were hardly engineering related, while the other option is going back to my state when I was just a graduate with absolutely no experience.
I hope This doesn't make my question convoluted. I hope it reaches you at a good time. Have a nice rest of the day.
I get it. Yea the word "engineer" gets thrown around so loosely that you really never know who truly IS an engineer. But that's OK. Just put it on your resume and see what happens. I think you'll be OK considering the circumstances.
But even if you do leave it off the resume, 8 months after graduating can be chalked up to alot of things. Perhaps you had some personal things to take care of right out of school, finishing up some "projects", taking care of a family member. Know what I mean. It's really not a bad predicament to be in. It's alot easier at your stage than someone whose been in the workforce for 10 yrs and has an 8 month gap..now that's a crappy scenario...

What if I worked for a company for 2 years and I quit and came back so they considered it 3 months probation and I reported my on duty supervisor to my manager for harassing me at work and pubically humiliating me... they said they would look into it and took these allegations seriously the next day they terminated me.
Since you complained to them about harrassment so they did not want to take risk being sued that's why they fired you.
it's called a background check but some of the things you said did help
thanks for watching!
My supervisor likes my work efnic I was having problems with my child acting up at school so I lost my job for 6 months so I decide to come back so now I got rehired
I've also heard prospective employers if they do a reference check mostly it's just to verify if a person actually worked for xyz company and that a former employer can only confirm a person worked for them as well and just give the dates.
+Elizabeth Schiada I believe that is true at least in the US. Thanks for that piece of info!
Elizabeth Schiada not true
Well here in the UK the reasons for leaving section also has to be answered by the employer.
Some employers do not bother checking but other companies do an in depth check and it really isn’t difficult for them to obtain an in depth account of the details surrounding ones previous work place.
Information Technology Q & A Show even in the US if a company wants to dig deeper and get more information from a previous employer regarding a candidate all they have to do is ask questions.
Previous employers very rarely refuse to give out information if they are asked for it
Someone was fired because someone said they said but they were the ones that actually said it. It’s the second time the office manager has accused of something someone else did. This office manager constantly hazes employees until they quit or she pulls something out of a hat to fire someone whenever she decides she wants to hire a friend.
What state are you in? I'm in Washington state, which is a right to work state and I, as a supervisor, am not allowed to make any negative comments regarding a past employee. I'm pretty much restricted to date of hire, period of employment, position held, etc. etc. anything else can get us slapped with a lawsuit.
I'm in Florida which I believe is also a right to work state.
I got fired for not getting buggies when it was pouring down raining. I’m 16 I worked at ingles. I had no warning no write ups nothing.
If you don't do what you're told, then that might happen. Why didn't you collect the buggies? Good news is you're only 16 so let this be a lesson learned!
I don't know about US but here in Canada gov't can help you choose a second career and provide you grants. However if your already in IT field and you have some savings after you've been fired. You can use gov't assistance to upgrade yourself. Food for thought

I took it down a long time ago. I may update it and post a new link.
I was fired from a senior leveł position. no write ups. Good evaluations. was told they did not have to give me a reason.
That sucks and sorry to hear that. You must live in a "right to work" state where they can fire without reason. But for them to just give you the boot with no explanation tells me they are a highly unethical company and I would never want to work there. Wish you success finding another opportunity.
If you are fired without justification, there is almost nothing you can do about it. The best way is to prevent the act before that happens. Reality is: employers can fired any employee without just cause. Something that could prevent that to happen is a union contract. That is the only option under labor law that gives an employee legal protection.
In alot of states that is true. And there are benefits to working in a union but unfortunately unions are not common in the business sector.
That's crazy, brother I got fired since my job went slow, and I apply for unemployment and I got approved!! It's money I paid all this years, no one is giving me a favor, it's my money, and it's time to collect them, I applyed and it shows how much I have in total and how much I'll get every week, I kept collecting for 4 months until I find a great job.

Hi everyone 🤗, This is my 1st time being fired. I was wrongfully terminated, due to the fact that I had got injury on the job at a senior living facility, my position was a caregiver. Long story short my "ex' employment" fired me at a meeting that they wanted me to attend to which I did, but my "ex' employment" end up firing me in the lobby infront of everyone. I'm not sure what to put on applications "when they ask if you ever been fired? & also in interviews what should I say"? Do anyone has any suggestions? I really appreciate it :)
Btw; I do want to get back into the field of healthcare, continue my work as caregiver, since my career/goal is to become a nurse. I need gain as much of experience as I can, since I took some time off for schooling....
Did you go to the HR dept? That would have been the first thing to do especially if you feel it was a wrongful termination AND the fact that they humiliated you. How long did you work there? If you were indeed not at fault, then just explain what happened to future employers. As long as you're honest and genuine, it should be fine.
What would be your interpretation if the boss let's you go but ends the conversation with, " I can give you a referral if you want " ?
I would think it's a good thing they offered you a referral. Most employers will not do that. So take them up on that offer in case you need it.
If you're fired I don't think you're going to be getting a good referral...
now laid off is another story
I was wrongfully fired over talking to another caregiver about when can she start I wanted a weeks vacation . I also did more then beyond and over to make my client happy and even cleaning a cat litter box because her daughter Sabrina Bell is pregnant and walking a dog that was not a part of the job . July 15, ,2017 Lucille Bell said your services are no longer needed . I Even got housing to get her a walk in shower in her house . Sincerely Louise Snippert.
Believe it or not but I have watched your video 4 times. As inspiration, while I do my work. Something about knowing that I could get fired being constantly on my mind makes me want to work really hard to not get fired, weird huh?
I'm glad the video inspired you. I guess we all have different motivations and doing your best so you don't get fired could be one of them. Although if you do what you're supposed to and do it well, you shouldn't have to worry. Although there's no "job security" so just remember that.
Thanks for watching!
I appreciate your response. Lately, I have been feeling very overwhelmed with my job. I am a career consultant for advanced technologies on a cooperate level. I have considered lately that I need to find a new job, not because I am bad at the one I am currently doing but because the stress of juggling so many different clients (part of being a consultant) has caused some issues with putting work away once I get home with my family. I push 100% constantly but there is always more to do and I have trouble letting that go, especially working remotely and taking care of a 2 1/2-year-old child.
Perhaps, this is a video you could possibly do? Learning how to separate work from home or perhaps knowing when it's time to move away from a job that may be toxic to you personally. Of course, this doesn't necessarily mean that job or company is toxic, just may be toxic for your situation whatever it may be.
Anyways, appreciate that advice and wish you the best in creating more great career oriented videos. With the change happening in America, we will need more educational resources that will give great foundational knowledge in work ethic.

Good question for sure. I'll def consider this as a topic for a video and let you know.
Just uploaded a video to address your question...hope it helps: th-cam.com/video/VZfydi9SSA8/w-d-xo.html
Good video. It seems most companies these days if they are smart are going to simply say that all they will verify are dates of employment, salary and that’s about it. Aside from criminal activity against a former employee, it’s a slippery legal slope. A “bad employee” in 95% of cases is simply the opinion of the former employer / boss. A bad reference could be grounds for a lawsuit for slander.
I am not an attorney either.
Totally agree. Alot of the referral process is subjective and based on one persons viewpoint of another. Sometimes unfair.
Thanks for watching!
that's not true they can fire you for any reason.
Nae, I'm not sure what comment I made that you're contesting but you are correct. There are some states that are "right to work" states that can fire without reason.

What would you suggest if you get fired from previous job just before your final interview for a new position?
wow, what timing. If you're confident that you will get the new job, then don't worry about it. If you don't get the new job, then keep hunting.
Got two write ups, one for calling out too much which included 4 days I left for a family death, so I couldn't call for the next 30 days so I didn't. Three days I either came late (which I never do) or left early. we are suppose to make up time but I usually cant due to other personal problems. For the day I did come late I made up the time but that wasn't good enough for my supervisor. She wrote me up in front of everyone I was embarrassed. I usually sign the write ups and don't talk back to the higher ups but this time I felt like it was unfair. I told my supervisor I will not be signing my write up and she said "we can fire you for your attitude you know that right? I'm saving your job by writing you up". Now I cant help but feel that she is out there to get me fired, what do I do?
p.s she is leaving for maternity leave soon and I'm hearing from other coworkers that she might not come back after her 12 weeks.
Hello Alex, if you got written up for bereavement, then you should go straight to HR cuz that's bullshit.
As for being late, that's on you to clean it up. Do everything you can to get to work on time. And I'm glad you stood up to her.
Who is taking her spot while she's on leave? Whoever that is, you need to show them you're reliable and a great worker. In other words, make a good impression on them so that if she does return, you've got someone on your side.
OR, if you want to quit, then weigh all your options first before jumping ship. Write down all the good and bad and see which way the scale tips.
Hope that helps.
Information Technology Q & A Show thank you for replying so quick. my supervisor isn't informing us if she is getting replaced. She doesn't give out much information. I did go to HR, and my supervisor found out and was very upset since she felt like I was trying to get her in trouble which she stated. She did inform me that in the state we are in,she can fire me for whatever reason. so looking into the work manual will not help me even if I have notes for an excuse absent. I try to ignore her but it's very hard when she has to go around the office and ask about why I call out since I'm not giving her a real reason.
That's an unfortunate situation and I'm sorry you have to deal with such a shitty supervisor. All I can say is that you need to work on not being late and not call out. You may have to find other work to get away from that non-sense.
Alex, hope you don't mind that I reply.
It's a shame that there are jerks for bosses, and yes, sounds like you have one.. Hopefully she will be replaced and you can get a fresh start.
If you do get another boss, use words like, Ok, I can do that or no problem, when they ask for something or give instructions. Not saying you don't do this, but if helps.
Not asking you to Kiss butt, but showing interest in their needs will help. Again, I can tell she is a problem by you comment, but hope you can get a fresh start.
Good luck -
Keith Clark great advice!
I have one quick question. If someone get fired from their job can that person apply another job or not?
Of course you should look for a new job.

What should you do in a situation where you were at your job 5 years and then suddenly your fired by someone in corporate (someone you don't know) for not following proper protocol. (so suddenly).
That's a tough situation but you have to put it on your resume since it was 5yrs of working history. Be prepared to explain to future employers what happened. You may want to talk to the HR dept as well to get the full story.
what if u get fired, because ur boss brings up something like 2 months after the fact, that he says u did something, instead of doing it the week of, he waits all ths time and is like so whaty happend that day, and im like that was 2 months ago, so whos to say hes not doing it just to get rid of u
Thanks for this video to build encourage
+humera sheikh you're very welcome. I'm here to help in anyway I can. Thanks for watching.
I was let go at the end of my probationary period
I just got fired after only three weeks because they felt like I wasn’t independent and did not take initiative when I was doing everything they trained me to do so far, mostly without being asked. They were just beginning to train me, how am I supposed to take initiative when I have no clue what I’m supposed to do? I can only think that they meant I should have asked to be trained more?
I was fired from a 140k job for a Facebook comment unrelated to the company ..
I made a video on this topic. You have to be VERY careful how you act on social these days. Employers are watching every move! Yea, you'd think it's your personal life, but unfortunately, that's not how it works in the real world.
Were you able to qualify for Unemployment? I was fired today for a post which they didn't show or tell me what it was in regards too!
I was fired for approving a cash refund unaware that they paid by card.
Employee called requiring help. The customer had his ticket stubbs and I do recall seeing him earlier by her register as I was walking into the office prior to the refund. I should have just checked the receipt just to play it safe cause corporate found out through camera that the tickets were purchased through card from her. Corporate downright terminated me when they discovered it and everyone else were encouraging me to fight for my position as assistant manager back. Truth is I was relieved. I know my actions were reckless and even the general manager thought that the most I should get is a suspension. Meh. I was grateful that they wanted to help me get my job back but **** it!
I did acknowledge that what I did could have been a scam had it been someone else. It could have been an attempt to get money out of their card since they wouldn't be able to use the atm. I didn't make the transaction but I did make a foolish assumption that the employee took precaution if the customer was going to make a purchase that was over $200.00. I figure if the card was actually stolen and refunded through cash, someone would have visited questioning the transaction. Nope. It turned out there wasn't any scam and it was legit.
Months later I find a better job at Dillard's a a Dock worker starting me off with $11.00/hr. Don't have to deal with the customers and most of everything is easy to do. I never come back home a filthy mess. Much better than being paid $9.00/hr when I was assistant manager.
Some jobs just aren't worth fighting. I told some of my employees prior to my termination that if you are looking for a good pay then forget working at the theater! It should only be temporary. The theater is very stingy with the money. Dillard's should know I was terminated as I mentioned it in the application though they never questioned it during the interview. I probably won't ever be Sales Associate but I am happy with Dock.
I got fired from a restaurant job last year and have been struggling to find a new job.
I know this isn't a place to tell your story but dayum I got a hell of a story to tell.
What if someone is fired without cause?
All I can say is talk to the HR dept and if that's not an option, maybe seek legal counsel. But of course that's gonna cost you.
How do I get a job without experience and in my senior year of college and will get my bachelors in IT this semester?
Watch the video's I have on how to find an entry level job.
Yesterday I was fired.
The reason:
My boss told me a customer followed him around when he was out shopping and told him that I wasn't a good range safety officer (I worked at an indoor gun range and gun store). My boss also twisted my words with a customer about range safety.
The hint:
Twisting my words with a customer I spoke to about range safety.
How did I handle it?
I understand his reason, but I did call him out on twisting my words. He objected of course, and told me I was lying. I stood there staring at him the entire time as he did not make any eye contact with me the entire time.
Despite being fired, I've shrugged it off even though it was a job I did enjoy doing. I simply told myself, "Whatever is out of your control let it go and move on." Am I looking for a job today? NOPE! Because my investment finally paid off. :D
Either find a union job or start your own business. The remaining "jobs", not necessarily careers are basically💩💩💩💩
Terrible mindset. I disagree with that advice.
I've suffered an injury and was out 2 weeks under doctor's care. Been with my company 20 years. When I returned they dumped another team members work on me after firing him. Now I have double work, under meds I can't take at work for pain and need surgery with NO overtime and expected to be accurate with accounts I'm not trained on. This is a huge company. The new manager is a dummy that knows nothing about the business and doesn't care to learn and I have to train her in the process. I can't even escalate anything to her that is beyond my pay grade. She has an associates compared to my degree. I feel really screwd as I need surgery and think they are trying to fire me before it happens. Any suggestions?
I was fired from a job 7 years ago, I need to have this job on my application. I was with this company just under 10 years. This company claimed gross misconduct, but the state of Florida unemployment stated that I was wrongfully terminated. How do I comment in the "Reason for Leaving" section, without lying and making myself or the company look bad?
Hello Mandi. That was 7 yrs ago. What have you put on previous job applications since then? I would put down exactly what you said "wrongfully terminated" and when they ask, you tell them the truth.
I was in the US Navy and I am currently finishing my work study contract at my local VA. I have just graduated and need to find a job. The application I am filling out states I only need 6 years of prior jobs, but since the job I am applying for is in the same field as the one I was wrongfully terminated I know I need to include it.
Thank you for the quick response.
Anytime. I wish you lots of success.
what do I do If I was fired with our any warnings, making false accusations and only having some rules apply to others? please reply OH and also they said they "obviously" won't be giving me a character reference
Wow, sorry to hear that Sally. That's a tough call. If you worked there for less than 3-6 months, then don't put it on your resume. OR, if you need to include it on your resume, make sure you have a great explanation for the potential employers in case they ask during the interview.
Thanks so much for getting back to me!
sally black Anytime, wish you the best going forward.

A buddy of mine got fired for 3 no-call, no-shows. That was his method of quitting. From his point of view, he quit. From the employer's pov, he was terminated for cause. He worked at the company 3 years and this incident just happened 2 weeks ago. What would be your advice for him? Should he leave it off his CV and tell prospective employers he spent the past 3 years traveling, taking time off for family, etc? Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
The only reason we don’t have universal healthcare is because significant numbers of people would move into consulting or temp projects and deprive employers of employees. Who on earth would want to work in these conditions? I switched from full time employment years ago and the only issue I have is health insurance but other than that it’s been great.
I tend to screw up a lot.
I donated plasma but I passed out and was rushed to the ER. I barely ate anything that day before donating. I also didn't drink enough water before doing it. I know I didn't eat or drink enough before doing this. which is the reason the other two plasma places banned me because they couldn't trust me, I have failed many times. it breaks my heart I screw up so much. I kinda wanted die because of it. if I screw up again I don't think my heart can take it anymore
just got fired after my job at a year and my boss called me and he said he doesn’t like my work And I was calling out a lot let me tell you something I get sick very easily they don’t care about the employees specially when you’re disabled
My question to you, what made you want to do these videos.
It was a total accident. I made a video a few years ago about ppl who work in I.T. It wasn't a very positive video either (ironically) but it got thousands of views. I also started getting tons of questions from ppl in the comments section of that video about I.T. So it occurred to me that maybe I could start a Q & A "show" here on the channel and just start answering questions and helping ppl. At that time I was at 99 subscribers-- fast forward to now, about 15 months later and my sub base is over 5K and I'm having fun doing this and it's obviously helping ppl. It was totally unexpected.
Well you my friend are a blessing, breath of fresh air for sure. I listen to a lot of speaker here on TH-cam, and I only listen to people that have there act together. If your legs is broken you don't ask a group of plumbers for help they are going to tell you call a doctor. So I come here for knowledge, to hear ppl that know what they are talking, about on a topic or subject. You got it going on my friend, I like what you have to say it like real life. Keep doing what you.
Appreciate that so much Earnest!
I got fired because I didn’t show up on my day off
Well that sounds very strange. Are you sure it was your day off?
If you agreed to cover a shift, then it's no longer your day off. If they called you in and you said no, then it's bogus that they fired you
I worked as a produce clerk at qfc and I was only working there for two and never have been late and I've been on time for the past two weeks, and I made a mistake I was 10 minutes late to work and that day I was late my manager wanted to speak to me in his office during my shift and i wasn't aware of the 90 day probation and it is mandatory for all employees to show up on time for those ninety day which I didn't follow up with and broke the rule and he told me that my performance skills was lacking my work ethic and I was tardy and that's what got me fired because of it...tardy just once and I tried to explain myself and the boss just kept declining me and it was a little hurtful because I tried everything I possibly could to ask for a second chance and it wasn't fair either. I was willing to make up for it and then ended up getting terminated. oh well I'm not too stressed about it anymore there are alot more jobs out there for me than just qfc and it sucked but I learned a good lesson.
+jstar music that really sucks especially if you had a good reason for being late.
jstar music Unfortunately, if you’re a non-union employee, you can pretty much be fired at will, especially during probationary periods. With Union employees, there is firing criteria managers have to follow first regardless of how long you’ve been there. So it’s harder to get fired for performance related reasons if you’re working for a place that’s unionized.
I got fired because my co workers told my manager i was shy. WHAT THE FUCK Man...I was legit at the job for a week i was quiete because i was paying attention to what i needed to do all i was saying was ok after what they taught me dont get me wrong being quiete is bad but i was new and learning i usually talk a fuck ton but when the manager told me i was fired my heart rate increased and time flashed at me...as i drove off it kicked in....
Sorry to hear that. Seems a bit weird a manager would do that.
