Today, it's been a few days since I saw an ad advertising my job after being told about it by a telemarketer. When I asked my boss about it, she claimed things were fine, it was an old ad, not to worry. Now, I was actually fired for no valid reason. A telemarketer gave me more warning than they did. FML

Today, I was fired from a job I didn't have. The manager in charge of calling me to tell me if I got the job never called, and never called me back when I left messages. The only time he called me was to fire me for not coming to orientation, which, by the way, he never called to tell me about. FML

Today, I got a call from an ad agency offering me a job. I was so excited, because I've been looking for work for a few months now and really wanted to work for them. An hour later, they called apologizing, because they'd made a mistake and offered the job to the wrong person. FML

The moral of the story: be nice to telemarketers. They may be annoying, but they're also psychic demigods who inform you of services and causes you don't care about when you're just trying to eat dinner.

Im almost completely sure that they need a plausible reason to fire you. Im not saying that you deserved it but they cant fire you without one.

I live in the all mighty terrible state Florida & here they have a rule that you can fire people without reason even after the 90 day probation.
