Just got fired
Posted: Wed Nov 05, 2014 5:14 pm
So yea... I just lost my job. I'm pretty pissed.
My contractor called and said that the client asked that I not come back. I asked what for, and she said that my production numbers weren't good and that I only did 47 projects today and that I didn't do anything from 11am to 3pm. I asked if she looked at what I actually did between those hours and she said and I quote, "I don't have to, you didn't do anything." I had one of the biggest projects I've ever done today, and it took me that long to actually do it.
She proceeds to say that my production numbers have slipped over the past few months, which is also a lie. I ask, "So how many did I do yesterday? How many the day before, or the day before that or the day before that?"
She replies, "That doesn't matter."
I say, "Oh but it does matter! I did over 180 projects yesterday and over 150 the day before. So you can't say that I'm not productive. I've told you numerous times about what's going on at that office and you choose to ignore me and so do the clients. None of them have any clue what they're doing there and when someone comes in that out-produces them, THEY FIRE THEM! It's happened before and I can list examples!"
She gets flustered and finally just says, "Look, you're fired. Don't come back. They don't want you there."
"Fine," I say. "I expect my firing slip and I expect my things."
"Expect? You can't expect anything because you don't deserve it!" I finally had enough and tell her off, which I will leave out. She finally said to email her and we'll figure out a time and place so I can get my stuff.
Anyone want a competent IT Technician with 20 years experience in IT?

I built my first computer when I was 10, made my first webpage when I was 13 and setup my first server when I was 15. My mom had an IT Company when I was growing up and I count the time that I spent helping her with her computers as experience.
