They fired me

It sounds to me like your suspicions are correct and if that's the case I would go after them for that. Working two jobs is no reason to be fired at either of them. They gave you a lame reason and paying you off to keep quiet.

Make them give you a written reason for your termination. I think you can fight this as wrongful termination. Is there anything in your employment contract that says you can't work for a compeitor? If not, then they don't have a reason. You can push for written notice of why you were fired. Make them pinpoint exactly their reasons. What they told you is too vague. I believe you can make a case against them.

hi there... I think that was rather inappropriate of hem to just let you go without proper notice. I dont know about you butif they did this to other people they would have been filed a case in labor. They said its performanbe, but thisyou also have toknow and agree with. They cant assessed yourperformance and they not tekl you about you.

hi that is surprising and yes they legally must give a reason so you have a grievance to file with the labor board. I was fired only because I was old according to what my manager told me. I asked der if my work was satisfactory and she told me I was the best worker she had.What she did not tell me but I had overheard the second in command under her did not want elderly people working in her library this I overheard. I did not file with the labor board but library headquarters notified me the firing was illegal and come back to work. The manager and her assistant were both fired.But it did me no good as I had had a b d fall fracturing my left shoulder and had to have a shoulder joint replacement.As I did not regain much use of my left arm there was no way I could any longer shelve media in the library . I hope you will file for whats due you .

I am sorry to be hear of your plight with your employment. If you lose your job then I think you are ctinly entid to know the reasons why. I would go to your employer and and let him or her know that you would like to know the reasons and causes of your termination. Good luck to you.

Hi I see in the comments that you are working at there competitor store.most likey that the reason. a lot of store have rules that if you work the competitor store they will fire the person on the spot.you should first gave the old the 2 week notice.on the other hand I know jobs if you give a 2 week notice. some of the jobs will fire the person the next day. and if it a part time job low wage most of them is at will empoyemnt either party can leave and the job does not have give that person anything extra they do have to pay them for all the hours that person work. I tell freinds all way read the jobs hand book .ok have good day.

Performance? You? That's a laugh! You could fight it, if you wanted to, but it's probably not worth the effort.

I thought when you got fired you had to be given a reason. Maybe it bothered them that you got a job at a competitor's?

It's funny how she says she's paying you as an appreciation, and yet her reason for firing you is performance. That makes no sense. If you performance wasn't up to their standards, why would they appreciate it? An obvious (bad) excuse to fire you.

whenever you lose something be sure that you will get something much better

Sometimes I feel it is a blessing in disguise to be let go from a job. I have been let go when I was sick. I was out too many days. So in my case, it was a blessing since I was still sick and couldn't work much. I got to heal and rest. I did have some bad feelings about it, but I got over it quickly and got another job. I wish you the best. Good luck!
