Have you ever been fired from a job ? What was the reasons ?

Yes quite recently, a big social media company went through a huge shift and decided to lay off thousands. I had the option to stay in another role but I decided to go with the exit package. **** them! :heart:

I've never been fired, but I have been laid off from three jobs and it has made it that I am nervous at every job I have had after where I am worried that I will be laid off.

Yes.

A hotel during COVID-19.

 

And a school where the principal was a complete control-freak and a lunatic (calling the staff cancerous, making everyone to clock in with a fingerprint and not being able to leave before 5pm, etc).

Dominos as a delivery person, after 20 minutes on my first shift after I did a delivery IN POURING RAIN :redface: they were like "We don't think you're a good fit". They ended up paying me 30 euros months after for some reason. 

 

anyway, I was happy

I was hired for a specifc role, and they tried to train me for another role. I wasn't having any of that ****. I said I wanted to do the job I was hired for. So they fired me.

I was laid off from my first full-time job in 2020 and it has scarred me ever since. I constantly think it’s going to happen to me again. :chick3:

I haven’t been fired but I have quit 3 jobs now - each about 2 years apart. All 3 I felt ridiculously overworked/burn out, underappreciated, and tired of the toxic work environment. A lot of favoritism, hypocrisy, and excusing of bad behavior if certain managers/partners made a lot of money. That on top of their nearly impossible expectations was enough for me to eventually leave. 
 

Related to OP, throughout the 3 jobs I had in that industry, I witnessed 3 people total get fired. 1 towards beginning of my career and 2 simultaneously at the end. I liked all 3 people so it was really sad. They were treated very coldly on their way out - it was eye opening to witness. You can never trust your employer has your best intentions - always look out for red flags wherever you work. I’ve become way more guarded at work because of what I saw and intolerant of hating my job - I’m here to clock in and out, do a good job & get my check nowadays.
