    I'm not sue happy, but letting you go after just one day for foggy reasons just doesn't sound legal to me....

    I hope you get your pay soon Donna. *hugs*

    Kimmy,

    They called me at 5:50 pm and said my check would be at the security guard's station, and I could leave my ID there. How convenient that everyone involved had already gone home, so they didn't have to deal with it, or me probably.

    Legal or not, I'm just glad it's over and I can move on. That's a pretty crappy way to handle things and I DO deserve an answer, but don't think that's ever gonna happen. Oh well.

    Their loss!!!

    Donna, that was a very rude way that they handled it. However as you said, it's over and you can go on. {{{{HUGS}}}} to you, Donna!

    Donna, I'm sorry to hear this. It really doesn't seem fair!! They could at least have called you in to tell you why they let you go!

    Good luck finding a better job!

    Unfortunately this happens all to often in the working world.
    An online friend of hubby's took an offer with a police station (to be dispatcher gave notice to his other job and the day before he was to start at the new job they called and asked if he quit his old job, which at first he thought was odd question to ask. Turns out the new place changed their mind and said he didnt have the job. He has since hired a lawyer.

    It sure sounds like in your case someone else came available that they really wanted. Such a cowardly place to have your check ready after hours when no one was there. Your better off not working there at the newspaper.
