I just got fired today...
My depression and anxiety were making it hard for me to perform adequately, but that actually wasn't the reason I was fired this morning.
Yesterday I had five minutes before I was technically off of work, so I was helping a friend cut out bubble pictures from pieces of paper. My boss's boss came up and asked why I was helping, so I told her it was because I had a few minutes before I should leave. She reprimanded me for not doing more quality checking in my last five minutes of shift, and then she left. She told my boss, and they decided to terminate my employment.
I don't understand what people are thinking when they expect others to work literally every minute of the day. I had finished my production sheet, and if I'd done any more quality checking I would have only been able to QC like one file...
I got fired for cutting out a picture of a bubble...
This is the first time I've ever been fired from a job.
I guess I'm going back to accepting commissions for now.

Talk to a temp agency in your area. Even if the work is a few months per job, they typically pay well (especially if you can use basic computer programs like WORD and type at a decent speed).
