Update on life (if anyone cares)
9 years ago
Well for those i spoke to at EF, you might remember i got a new job in a toy store and that i was SO eager to start there.
I did, and it went all fine, we got to go to an existing store of the brand, in order to get a training on how to run things, while they finished building the *actual* store we'd have to work in.
We were 3 trainees, with the team of that store, who was composed of 4 people.
The contract was a 6 months formation, followed by at least 6 months job, and after that a indefinite contract.
All was going well, i had plenty of happy customers being delighted with my counsel, i got along really well with the 2 other girls of "my" future shop, etc.
On the 9th day of the training, one of the bosses called me in the office.
When i arrived there, sitting at the table were one other of the 3 bosses and the manager of the"training store".
And they fired me.
Apparently, the "whole team" (I.E the 4 people of the existing store + the manager there) ALL "voted against me" (i didn't know i worked in a TV reality show?)... i was floored.
In the first meeting we all had together before we started, they all said "And if there is anything that goes wrong, please communicate between yourselves!" Nobody told me anything! They were all smiling to me all the time.
They didn't liked my personnality, i was "taking too much space", i was "refusing to be at the cash register" (which is a lie, all i said was -when they asked i there was a position in the shop i liked less- that "being at the cash register didn't especially enthousiated me", that i "preferred counseling to handling money, but that of course i'd cash people in if needed"...)... and a full lot of assorted bullshit on that note.
My future colleagues? They didn't even consulted them.... MY manager, of the future shop? Never even saw her.. she was on holidays...
So let me get it straight:
I was fired to appease/please people i was anyway NOT going to be working with, in the end.
I was fired without being able to say a word for myself, by a manager who was NOT MY manager.
I was fired for "being myself" (they saw me 3 times in interviews and it's not like i am a "Jeckyll and Hyde" type of person... I am myself all the time)!
So now i'm back to square one, unemployed and broke as hell, but i am pretty shattered and i feel soooo shitty...
Am i such a monster?Is being myself such a crime?
I dunno how i'm gonna pay my rent/food/electricity/whatever...
I am open for commissions for custom MLPs and perler beads stuff...
My etsy shop is there:
