I was working at A living Assisting as a care giver .. One of the residents there asked me if I would go to the store for them I told her yes but it would have to be when I get off from work ..she gave me 100.00 dollar bill I then told her that i needed to write a statement that she is giving me the 100.00 I then asked the receptionist at the front desk to be my witness and she agreed to sign so myself and the lady I went to the store and the reception signed .. I went and pick up her items and showed the receipt and change to the reception.. I then returned the money to the elderly and she thank me for going and gave me 20 bucks and that was July 12 .. I was off a few days 17th 18th 19th I went in on the 20th but was not feeling well so thy sent me home I had off on the 21 so had a break ..I then returned back to work on July 22 I was told by some of the girls that some of the residents have been missing some things and someone had money stolen on the 18th and a few other things One of the elders had their wallet stolen someone went to Walmart and spent over $500. Now keep in mind when all the stuff was happening I was off all those days when things were missing. I got a call from my supervisor July 23 . Saying there is an ongoing investigation and I need you to stay out a few days I said OK. At that time I did not get upset because there's nothing that I did wrong so I went about my day. I was told by one of the other girls that there was a " white women .there and she was suspended for three days that following Monday they let her return back to work .. I got a call Tuesday the 25th from the supervisor stating this I told you there was an ongoing investigation I am terminating you because you went to the store for a resident she did and said you can come get your last check and sign some people work I said no you can mail me my check. I think got off the phone and went in that in the handbook to see if I did something wrong meaning was it OK for me to go to the store on my time off so I looked through the handbook and it said nothing. So I called the supervisor back and told her it does not state in the handbook if I can or cannot go to the store for resident on my time off she stated I don't tolerate it and then I said well it doesn't say she got very nasty with me and hung up the phone .. I then called to find a consistency lawyer to file a claim for California state law says that the job that I work that is a at will job.. meaning that they can fire me for any reason I feel the real reason why she fired me is because she thought I stored from the residence and I didn't I didn't have to .. I was very devastated I am a good caregiver I took very good care of those people there it was over 87 people .. I have a strong faith in God and I feel he removed me from that place for reason God did not create me to worry he did not create me to fear he created me to worship him .. also keep in mind that they found the person on video at Walmart and it was not even anyone that work there ..I am black

I have been working for a restaurant for 2yrs. Did more then what my job description was. I ran the store for 2mths with no GM, was promised the store, but all of a sudden the store was given to my bosses friend. Then I was promised another store if I kept doing what I was doing and helping this new GM with truck orders schedules and running the store effectively. Then we get 3 new supervisors and all of a sudden I get fired. I was not told what it was I did wrong or anything I was just told to clock out and leave because they no longer need me. After everything I did for these people this is the way they take care of their strongest and hard working employees. Im still mad because I have never been fired or any reason, Let alone fired with no reason at all. I will never work for that restaurant chain ever again.

So I'm being fired from my job as a custodian at a high school because my f.b. is to popular with the students.mostly vacation pics and circus and sideshow.the kids like it to much so I'm told I'm to f.b. famous and it distracts the kids from learning.

On august 8 i received a phone call from my agency telling me not to come today because the client (Medical devices company) ended my contract for performance problems and after i did my investigations or basically i call leaks from hr department that i was seen many times by my supervisor and other employees not doing anything during working hours and other times i was not showing up on CCTV cameras or hiding from cameras, i am not sure exactly, and other leak that i made a massive damage to products or production operations which did cost them thousands of dollars, and other leak that they gave me a warning earlier pointing out the mistakes or the damage that i made to production and the truth is that i didn't receive any kind of verbal warnings neither written ones, so i need really help and an advice on what to do against this miserable situation, i am in a horrible mindset that i started doubting myself as if i am crazy or i am the invisible, please help me.

I was working for a dental lab company as a courier and asked them if I could have extra hours if they had any. Well one of the owners asked me if I would consider being trained in the lab itself as a dental tech and learn to work on the dentures. So I agreed and ended up liking it. So I was offered fulltime. After about 4 months a former employee called to see if there were any openings and they let me go an hired him.

So Friday I got terminated from my job due to lack of performance and that I was a bad fit. I worked for a bank that treated me unfairly. I started this job in the beginning of December. There were a couple of issues I had including me calling out sick. I called out sick because I was sick but told me this was included in my final warning letter. This was when I was there 3 months. Then there was another issues that I made but told my manager about. This was also included in my final warning letter. But then there were things that happened. I was really sick one day and both my manager and assistant manager told me I had to stay in at work because we were short handed. Then I passed out on the keyboard and then I passed out on the floor. While this happened both my manager and assistant manager went down for a smoke. I was then taken to an ambulance. There was no plan in place. After I got back to work they added a new policy. So I don't know if this has to do with my termination or what not but is this something that I can fight for? And for the other things that was put on my final warning letter, were they trying to let me go no matter what?

I worked as an armed guard at the Air Traffic Control Tower in Houston. My co-worker lied and told my Supervisor I left before my relief arrived. I didn't leave until he arrived, and I have two sworn statements from both of the relief officers stating that I didn't leave until they both arrived. I need an attorney. This is a federal case.

Astonished and frustrated. I worked for a supermarket company for 9 years as a manager and I'm fired because my position disappears in the company and invent another similar with another name to pay less and give it to a person almost inexperienced and does not speak English. It's amazing what companies do to pay less. I applied for many companies and had several interviews and never contact you to give you any information and qualify or not. In the end you see people working in positions with no experience and very unprofessional, in an interview with a district manager the man was falling asleep in the middle of the interview. The business world is incredible ... it's very sad.

made a major career move to go back into a career/industry from long ago, employee benefits insurance account management. 90 days later it all came to a screeching halt. it is a family owned and operated business and yes I had my reservations but they were just so nice and I was more than ready to experience nice decent people in the workplace. I was cheery and happy (to my surprise) every single day. The compliments from the dad and his two sons kept rolling in. 30 days turned into 60 and then so on and I still had no idea what my actual job was. I had not rec'd set assignments and nothing specifically assigned to me as my responsibility. I would be given projects and they were completed in a timely manner leaving me with several hours on a daily basis with nothing to do. My smiling face never left nor did my positive attitude and the Oscar goes to....however the down time was becoming excruciating. yes I approached the dad and two sons along with one other gal in the office asking if there was anything I could help with. Again I would be given a project or two that would take me minutes to complete. I was afraid that my frustration was going to start showing so I started stepping outside taking quick walks or calling a friend or two to shake it off. I was told there was no problem with making or taking phone calls outside. Then it happened I apparently crossed over to one too many "steps outside" and my last 5 min walk it off moment was met with one of the sons greeting me when I got back wanting to know what my problem was. He kept randomly talking basically having a conversation with himself saying things like "r u sensitive"? "why do u keep going outside r u dealing with personal problems"? he references again being sensitive and then follows up with "we won't tolerate it" that is when MY blood started to boil. "tolerate"? at this point he is still having a conversation with himself and I have said nothing. He finally says "am I wrong"? he clearly was not in a state of mind to actually hear my concerns so I decided to say "yes u r" he said "I don't think so" that was it. the next morning I rec'd an email before work telling me my position had been "eliminated" and not to come into work accept to drop off my key and pick up my last check. I am a very strong person and I don't shy away from awkward situations and am all about holding my head up high but I just couldn't do it. I was a blubering mess -a friend volunteered to handle it for me and to my surprise and relief I let her. I feel sad and somehow betrayed and defeated.

I keep reading many comments about how employees need to go to H.R. for resolutions to there issues at their job. I beg to differ with this advice. I know that all companies with H.R. departments can be helpful to some, but my experience with the H.R. staff I dealt with in my last job was bogus. I will not drag out this comment, but my H.R. people would lie to keep their jobs. Case in point=====I do think the last H.R. manager was hired for a 6th or so month contract to fire employees, as I was along with many others during his time there. I thought that the department was to mediate issues in the work place, and not be in cahoots with managers some uppers to push people around. This man said to me that I had worked there for twenty years so it was time for me to "MOVE ON!!!!!!!! And also stated to me that if I spoke of conversations we had, he would walk me out personally. Now, I ask you, what is up with being treated that way. He lied about other incidents with other employees and there are many more issues that came up. He was arrogant, controlling, unprofessional and we had no recourse. No union, fire at will state, and when there were witnesses to some events, workers were afraid of losing their jobs so they kept closed mouthed. There is much more to the many years of my employment at this place, but my point is that this H.R. persons contract was up and is no longer there. I guess he did the ax job he was hired to do!!!!! Even my boss who was in tight was terminated shortly after me and ..others. So all this being said, my opinion of H.R. has been soured by all this. I can only hope this is not the trend for all companies. Thank for letting me vent!!!!
