Thats terrible... When I had people fired at the Post Office, I made sure that it was at a good time (like a shift just before a weekend) & it was done after their shift & that the Store Manager, spoke to them in person & explained in detail WHY they were being fired. A few I forced to quit, as they were friendly people, but they just couldn't do the job & I didn't want to hurt their resume, as they were still quite young (under 20yrs old).

I missed out on the last person fired, & it was done the way I wanted it to be done. She was a total NUT BAG, to the point I feared for my life & the health of my customers! But I knew it was a mental issue & not that she was a "Bee with an itch". She was asked to quit as she was finally caught verbally attacking an employee infront of one of the BIG guys in the company, & she did quit a week later.

Thats how it should be done. As I know how it feels to be fired & not told why, or told a BS reason

However in the long run, its prob. best that you didn't work there. As it sounds like it would have slowly eaten you into depression.. Been there & had 2 major Anxity break downs, ya, its not worth the pain.

After I moved to this city, I had 3 HORRIBLE jobs! I had 3 major Anxity breakdowns in less then a month & then litterly hit rock bottom (I'm only 23)... So I vouched to myself NEVER to stay at a bad job like those again.. I told my Job agency about my work past & they found me a 3 day job with Samsung. I was told to work my butt off & impress (I do that anyways) & here I am at 2 months later in a relaxing, family enviroment job.. My pay bites, but its just enough to get by & I'm happy for once.

So if your agency offers you a temp job in a MAJOR company, TAKE IT!! Work hard (not too hard as to burn yourself out) & there is a chance you can wiggle into a more perm. spot.

I hope something I said was encourging or atleast gave you some hope
OH & Job Agencies LOVE it when you learn things on your own. I'm learning PHP, HTML & MySQL all on my own & because of that, they are putting me in places where I normally would never get, ie: Samsung.

So if you don't know MSword, MSexcel, MSpaint, IE, Firefox, MSN, GIMP, GAIM, MSPowerpoint, etc. Get those programs & play with them, or look online for a site that teaches you how to use them... The more you learn the basics the better chance the Job Agency will take a risk & put you in a good place!

Best of Luck
