Just got fired yesterday vol. Merry Christmas

[coolnclutch]

No disrespect OP but it sounds like you weren't exactly working for a very professional business in the first place so I dunno if you have many options. Since there is no HR, you might just have to settle this on your own. Call up your "boss" and try to talk it out and convince him to stay. Hiring a new person and having to spend the amount of time training them and adjusting to them on the job vs. you improving whatever flaw he thinks you have.

Employers are required to respond to the request in writing within 10 days.

Talk to your landlord and tell him/her about your situation, hopefully they will understand especially if you have been good with rent in the past.

Pump out as many job applications as you can, everyday and hope someone bites.

There is no reason we shouldnt be able to make the current month's rent in situations like this.

Best of luck.

Hope that you can find another job soon OP. It's rough out there. Just stay positive and start submitting those resume's ASAP.

 

[biggie62]

That's bad I agree. MY friend who works for a PE company told me how when they bought a company back in early November, they told the CEO of that company to fire 20% of the workforce on the Wednesday before Thanksgiving. It really does suck and I would never want to be in that situation myself.

 

[chest rockwel]

Im sorry that you lost your job.

Posting on here won't do you any good though.

 

[knightngale]

Maybe you should move to an area with lower rent for a while? Are you paying off a house? Maybe there are some government programs if so.

Maybe its for the better. You lost this job just to find a better one. Think of it as a Christmas present.

(trying to stay positive.)

If I don't find work in the next week we won't make rent.

I'm really sorry to hear about your situation.

 It's something I fear; I'm fortunate in that I don't have any children or rent to worry about, it's debt (CC and Student Loans) that I'd be freaking out over should that happen to me... 
I really hope things get better for you very soon, and that you are somehow able to come across a better job soon. 

Stay Positive.

It's easy to speak like that when you aren't in OP's shoes, Adios. 

 

[bombbiggidyphil]

Your boss is a douche bag for doing it through text. If you still collect kicks you could always sell some if worse comes to worst. good luck

 

[jomitm]

Constantly look for work fam.

Convince employers you're down for whatever.

What I've learned is that when you think life is over, it just actually might be a new beginning.

Maybe you'll find something where your boss isn't a lunatic, more stable, or better in the long run.



Best of luck my dude. Keep your head up.

 

[crime wave]

Better stack and flip those 8 balls fam

 

[DeadsetAce]

over text? DAMN...

 Seriously, its one thing to offer suggestions to help the OP but its another to assert that this is a time for him to sit back.

 

 

[troymcclure]

You already know I don't believe in a higher power...I also never told him to "sit back"..but i'll tell you to

.

I meant it in, maybe something better will come out of this, find a better job - learn something, you know... adapt and grow, or fold. Choices.
