It's very hard for me to find a positive thing to say this evening. I'm hurt, mystified, confused, and a little angry.
For the first time in my life I was fired from a job - not because of work ethic, performance, or terrible errors, but apparently I offended a few people and my personality would endanger the well-being and cohesiveness of their small team.
I really have no words
I can't even wrap my head around this reason for being dismissed because it contradicts everything that I'm about! And I don't want to vilify the company or the people who work there because they're all really sweet, quirky, and imperfect.
I sincerely thought I'd found my people once I'd earned my stripes and was embraced as part of their work family.

We were just starting to climb out of debt.
We were just about to put a deposit on a beautiful rental to get out of this roach-infested temporary shit hole.
But I will not panic.
I will be taking the weekend to diligently apply for jobs in hopes of landing where I'm supposed to be.
Never burn a bridge
So anyway... I'm in the office and pleading my case and truly thunderstruck by what's transpired. There wasn't anything more to do so I thanked them for the opportunity and said, "Have a great weekend."
It was the end of the work day. I grabbed my purse and came home. At least my stomach doesn't feel like someone bashed me with a bat anymore - but damn, I'm winded.
Sorry for the downer post, guys. I'm just taking a break from job applications... again.
On the bright side of things
I'll be back to posting and interacting regularly until the next job comes along -- but if it's all right with you, I'll probably cry myself to sleep after I have a big bowl of ice cream.
Join my curation trail on Streemian
Don't worry, we won't fire you!!!!
Careful, papa - with my luck the whole place will shut down - but you're all stuck with me until then, okay? XOXOX
Hi merej99! You should go and read my latest post about the law of rhythm. You have just not yet found yours, and there is a reason why you were fired, because they would not take on the same vibrations as you. I am very sure to say that you will definitely find the right job at the right time, because you are not yet where you are supposed to be in life. You will find your little place and then you will be the one firing others, because they don't fit in with your vibrations. Just go and eat your ice-cream and go with the flow. Screw those damn people! Life works in mysterious ways, but at the end you will see that this is a good thing. This feeling will soon pass and then you are up and away to greater heights. It is not about the way you fall, but the way that you stand up!
Sometimes I feel like all I do is "keep getting up." But I suppose that's a good thing because it means I'm still alive. I've often said I don't know what I want to be when I grow up. And if you want to hear something weird, in this job I got exactly what I asked for: something easy where I wouldn't have to think too hard and all I had to do was say Yes sir, how high would you like me to jump? Except -- I'm not really good at being a Yes Man so I think I kind of did this to myself. LOLWhat an amazing response @giantbear
I'm heading over to your profile now but please share the link here so more people can see it. :)
Only if you have been in the deepest valley, can you ever know how magnificent it is to be on the highest mountain - Richard Nixonhttps://steemit.com/life/@giantbear/the-universal-laws-explained-part-5-the-law-of-rhythm# You can resteem if you like.) Think about this a bit....who the hell just wants to say yes sir and no sir all the time, no ways...you are a boss!!! I would probably have been fired in that first weeks already as I am not one to keep my mouth quite as shut as I am supposed to. Take a day off from thinking. Do something that you enjoy...relax and go forward. I am currently writing about the seven laws of nature. Life is suddenly starting to make a lot more sense for me..... go read them all cause I sure found some interesting things in these natural laws, that changed my way of thinking about life quite a bit. I actually see things a bit differently now.
Giantbear i'm following you now.... i love your response!
LOL thank you!
I am following you too @giantbear, I really like this positive attitude, I think the same.
Thank you. I must admit that I write about these things to keep myself positive. With all the negativity on Steemit some positivity is needed.
These things happen in the best families, many times things happen for some reason.
I in my entire life as a dependent worker (38 years) I only had 4 jobs, in one 18 and in the other 14 years.
I had in chief in the work of 18 years that spent 18 years preparing in case some momnetos we had to go through a situation equal to yours. Always told us the same parabola, the porter of the brothel.
The last job where I work my 14 years, I close by bankruptcy, there remember the parabola that I have heard so many times.
Do not press, have faith and patience, nothing is forever, everything will happen.
Force dear friend @ merej99, you can.
You are so sweet, @jlufer. I know you've been through tough times too. I think my heart is most affected. My husband and I have been through so much and for the first time in a long time we felt hope. And when I told him I was fired I saw the worry come back in his eyes. I hate that I put that there. :(
Have faith you and your husband, you will see that something equal or better, these things are small things that are put in our ways to see how we solve.
God squeezes but never hangs
When God closes a door He has a better one for you to walk through. I know this from personal experience. Keep your chin up because the best is yet to come.
Thank you for the positive vibes! Lately it feels like we're going the wrong way on an escalator and no matter how fast we move our legs, we're not getting anywhere! It's so frustrating. I did just apply for a job that I would love to have. It's the first one in the list where I didn't feel like I was working twice as hard for a job I half wanted. Fingers crossed. Prayers up. :)
No one has said it yet?
Well then.
42
May the interstellar highway take me to the next destination.
You sass that hoopy merej99? There's a frood who knows where her towel is.
This frood needs to take better care of her towel rather than be concerned with the movement of small green pieces of paper. lol
Maybe you need a digital watch.
ROFL - Hey now, I'm already as primitive as you can get. I've got a dumb phone (as opposed to a smartphone) and it only accepts phone calls, which is crazy considering that no one really talks to anyone anymore. And I don't own a watch. Oh... maybe I do need a digital watch!
I'm off to bed now. Thanks for all the fish.
The answer to the question about everything. :)
ooh bollucks -SQUISH-
LOL
I love you guys!
I just want you to know that I'm feeling very depressed.
Holy crap! That's nuts! I usually end up leaving jobs, but I've been fired a few times as well. The last time I was fired was because I solved a problem that had been plaguing the company for TEN YEARS. I was able to figure out a solution that the managers had overlooked. After the problem had been solved and the workers went into a full on party, due to their joy, the managers brought me into a room. I was reprimanded because at the time i had a temp position with zero authority. They didn't like it that I solved a problem that upper management couldn't even fathom. I was fired shortly afterwards in a big brother style: the phone rang and I was ordered to leave. This was at Hallmark. A big scary place!
Sorry about this. It sounded like it was a total shock to you....
It still is a complete shock. Truth be told, in my first week there I pointed out a problem which they found a quick solution for...and it happened to be the only thing they cited today. Not the fact that I helped but I guess it was because I dared to open my mouth? So much for "open door policy." :(
most companies require you to follow chain of command. If you get out of line, they don't like you anymore. That's been my experience.....also, I was surrounded by people with zero integrity and that also caused issues because I refused to lie or cave into that behavior.
I totally understand that mind-think because I was in corporate. I didn't quit my job there - I quit my manager. In this case, they're all wonderfully quirky and I felt like I fit right in...which is probably why I'm taking it so hard. I'm fairly certain I ruffled a few feathers but that was over a month ago - why not let me go then if that's the only issue they had. I'm just...confused. I'll never stop being assertive or be apologetic for trying.
I'm sorry to hear that from both of you, but this is the world we are living in. Those stupid companies never know how to appreciate someone's work and instead of promoting a hard worker person they fired that person.
This is a good reason why people should start working on their own, that way nobody will fire you!
I never gave up my freelancing business but I haven't pursued new jobs because I started to focus on Steemit and finding PT steady income. My goal is to revamp my personal website to have some affiliate and referral links, add backlinks to some of my Steemit tutorials and, like @stellabelle suggested, really get back into social media with some Twitter moments.
I just got back in touch with a friend and we're going to get back into recording our podcast idea from last year. Things are taking shape! :)
I can imagine that was really tough. I am sorry to hear it.
Maybe it is an opportunity in disguise. May you find a great new fit.
I'm very disheartened and my confidence is shot. Let's hope opportunity comes out of hiding soon. Thank you for your words @whatsup
Do you want a few peppers to help you cope?
LOL - the fire in my belly from those peppers might cure the baseball bat to the tummy feeling...but I still need to send you and the little peppers some homemade cookies!!!
I could try to give you a pep talk, but I am sure, I would feel the same way. :(
Just remember not everyone can handle caviar. That doesn't make it less valuable. Take care and be kind to yourself.
XOXOX
Do you mind at all me asking what they actually said offended them so much? There is actually a really bad situation within the west in particular where you have people losing their jobs and so on because of being targeted by people over it. Sometimes you can't do anything about it as you say, but if they just suddenly decided this without even telling you there could be potential for you to argue your case?
You could potentially sue for wrongful dismissal if it was totally made up bullshit or completely ridiculous, yes, I know, you may not want to do this, but this is your livelihood at stake. If you weren't even consulted about it by these people and they just fired you on the spot you could talk to a lawyer.
I thought about unemployment compensation for about 2 seconds before dismissing it. I may be wrong but I believe I was still within their stated orientation period (less than 60 days) where I could be dismissed for no reason at all.
Yes, it's complete bullshit and had I been given ANY kind of warning I would have been submitting applications for a smooth transition elsewhere. Like I mentioned, I've never been fired from a job before so this was a completely new experience for me. They didn't have an opportunity to get to know me or they would know I would have been a work horse until the very last second of my last day but I guess most people would have raged out of there.
Honestly, it's not worth the aggravation. I'm used to tightening my belt. This situation has solidified my resolve to pursue what I love instead of settling for a mindless job at nearly minimum wage. It's not the job itself but the bit of steady income that I'll miss the most. Oh...and if I had any kind of tenure I would definitely have spoken to a lawyer. I have quite a few friends who were used up for DECADES and then treated like crap. It's wrong for anyone to treat a dedicated employee like that!
Wow, you have a tremendous support group right here on Steemit.
Blessings on your new job search.
Thank you @paradise-found. Steemit is incredible if given half a chance. By the way, welcome aboard! If you have any questions please holler. There's a bit of a learning curve but we've also got a bunch of people who are committed to helping others here. I just hit the follow button on you and looking forward to your posts. :)
Thank you! Yeah, there is allot to learn. Today I've been trying to make heads or tails of the big whale/fight club battles. I really do wish you well and please keep your friends here posted on your job search.
That's the way life is.......Good that you haven't lost your hope.... And why should you?... Be brave and patient and everything will fall in place..... Good luck! Keep smiling ☺
Wkwk don't worry and don't panic xoxo!!
keep your head up!
I will. I promise. I'm just licking my wounds right now. XOXOX
I am so sorry to read this. Don't worry because there are always new doors to open. Cry and then get up and do it even better. Never take anything too personal. Enjoy your ice cream
I can't seem to stop crying...which is making me so frustrated...which makes me cry more. LOL OMG that's so stupid! hahaha! Maybe I need to forget about ice cream and just hit the beer tonight with a side of Netflix coma maybe?Thank you @mammasitta
That sucks. Sorry to hear this.
Yeah... I'm beginning to wonder if magic exists anymore. I hope so because reality sure does suck sometimes!
I am so sorry this happened. I truly hope you land at an even better job where they will appreciate you and your talents. You deserve it!
All cross-able appendages are crossed, prayers are up with the positive thoughts. I'm having a weak moment. Sometimes it just feels like when I have good something's got to whack me back down. It would just be nice if I had a cleat path instead of these miscellaneous stepping stones! I appreciate you @hanshotfirst Thank you for your thoughts. XOXOX
I'm so sorry to hear this! Just know that we all love you around here!Aww, @merej99 :(
And I love you for saying that!
It was a wonderful day with a terribly dark hour -- but I hear the sun's going to rise again tomorrow and the next day, right? XOXOX
The sun will never stop rising! Tomorrow is a brand new day. :)
I'm so sorry! I do know from personal experience that event that seems the absolute worst thing turns out to be absolutely the best thing for you in the long run. Be good to yourself. There are lots of people pulling for you!
Thank you @team101 - I'm trying to be good to myself and the support here has been incredible. It's part of the reason why I haven't signed off and cried myself to sleep. I've lived by making lemonade out of those pesky lemons for so long... I just hope I never get sick of lemonade. On the flip side of things: Life could be a lot worse. XOXOX
Sorry to hear about that; glad to hear that you are handling it like a trooper! Keep your chin up!
Without my walks Monday through Friday I may have to lift up my chins. lol
;>
I am sorry you had to go through that. I remember the first time i was fired. It blew my mind but I learned from it. It's amazing how people react when they are threatened from people who want solutions. They will hurt themselves more with getting rid of quality workers. I know this feels personal but when you can get over the pain you will see it more clearly. If you ever start a business you know who you want to hire and reward. A person like you.
Is it possible to work for their competitors? They may appreciate you more!
Ah, I signed a non-disclosure/non-compete but I don't think they have a local competitor. In addition to applying for outside jobs, maybe I need to jumpstart my freelancing again. I've had my own business before working 7 days a week with 14-16 hour days. I cherish that experience. I'm getting older and don't want to work that hard anymore but I don't mind getting dirty or breaking a sweat for an honest day's work in a good company. I sure do like a steady income, which needs to happen if we're ever going to get out of our current residence. The majority of my things are in storage because I never want to be comfortable here so I'll do what I must. HUZZAH. I think I'm starting to get over my pity party!
No I don't see you having a pity party. We all have to go through a grieving process. I hope you find something even better and with people you can grow with. Thanks for being brave enough to share and trust us. What you are going through is no picnic!
I would love to be my own boss and the beautiful thing is I technically only need to make a minimum $250/week to live comfortably (by my fairly low standards) LOL. So I'm revamping my website between reading & commenting here. I feel like I've been away so long that I was compelled to interact with my people before I laid out another post. The support and motivation has been so positive I truly feel blessed. There really isn't another place on the internet like Steemit. I wish I could do THIS for my FT job! :D
Maybe you are on an adventure finding something far better than what you had. I agree with you about Steemit. This is a rare place and the Steemians are the best people I have come across online. I hope the best for you and sometimes it takes a bad fall to find where we belong and who we want by our side.
Sorry to hear that. I hope you find a better place which can work through conflict in a more healthy way. I hope you can disconnect the negative emotions from any good lessons you can gain for the future. Good luck and I look forward to celebrating when you get a great new opportunity.
I never felt one ounce of conflict from anyone. If I had any kind of negative vibe I would have been putting out applications the entire time I was there. At least the shock is wearing off.Thank you @lukestokes
I'm glad to hear that. Hopefully this will be just one of many stories that make up the character you've built throughout your life. This will make you stronger, give you perspective, and direct your future.
I hope it's an amazing future. Things will get better. You'll make it so.
On the one hand, that just sucks. But on the other hand, it's best you're not in an environment that doesn't value what you bring to the table. Here's to the next opportunity!
Cheers! May the next opportunity show itself soon.Thank you so much @prufarchy. They'll never know what I can actually bring to the table but some places are satisfied with the status quo - and that's not my problem, is it? I always look for improvement and efficiency in a positive environment. I think this is why I'm so utterly surprised.
"Normal" people don't understand artists, @merej99. I run into this all the time. Better luck next time!
Ironically, I don't think there was a "normal" one in the bunch - which was why it was cool there! But, you know, I've never been cool - I just never thought I'd be kicked out of the quirky club! Oh man I hope that doesn't mean I'm normal now! That would be terrible.
I'm so sorry, the way you feel is so understandable!! I like how you're open to the possibility of this leading you to a better opportunity that is a better fit...I'm holding this vision for you.
I am definitely open to positive thoughts and actions coming my way. It keeps me out of the dark place. XOXOXThank you so much for that @natureofbeing
I believe it was because you out grew them. You have talent, you can't fake that. It seems that they couldn't handle your brand of soda, either. Pussies.
Once upon a time I was a quiet mouse and a doormat. Being older, more confident, and finally comfortable in my own skin, my filter and acceptance of the status quo ranges from little to none so I will never make myself small again -- but if that's offensive and makes people uncomfortable then they are NOT my people. I'd rather surround myself with peeps who say I've got a whistling booger dangling from my nose than those who'd point and laugh about it behind my back, if you know what I mean.
You are a wonderful creation.
"I get knocked DOWN! But I get up again! (((words I can't understand)))Never gonna get me down!" Maybe this little ear worm will cheer you up. Maybe not. Either way, I think you have a fantastic attitude about it all. You're being authentic about the crapiness of the situation, but not wallowing in it. You're going to pick yourself up by your bootstraps and get on with life! You're an inspiration. Thank you for sharing this experience with our community.
It's been a long-time anthem. It's funny - my son actually sent me a Skype message earlier asking what happened. Honestly, I had no idea he read my blog. So I gave him more of the details and it was kind of funny/interesting to see him rage on my behalf.Thanks for the earworm @simplysara - LOL
I'm half wondering if I've been so beat down that I suffer a sort of life's battered wife syndrome or if I'm just that strong that the fates/God/karma/the universe, etc. keep testing my strength and resolve. The end game is being dead so I'm trying to fill this life with good things. I just wish the path was easier sometimes!
Sorry to hear that, @merej99! Having them cut off the light at the end of your tunnel, when you are on the verge of something positive like moving, makes it even harder. I hope your walks help, and the support you have here on Steemit, too. I hope you find a great opportunity soon!
I think that's the hardest part to take -- someone shut off the damn lights again and I'm getting pretty sick of it. LOL I guess I'll have to learn how to navigate in the dark.
I feel for you. Let's hope you find something special in the dark -- or at least another light comes on!
I'm not very good with words first thing in the morning so I'm just going to send you lots of 💜 and 🍦🍧🍨.
I definitely appreciate the love and ice cream! Now that the shock has worn off I've had a great day :)
Curiosity: when I started my new life after the job's lost I was 42 years old :DI'm so sorry, @merej99 . I can understand you, I lost my job 4 years ago. I was there for about 20 years and when it happened I was very depressed. After the first "shock", I decided to analize all my skills and to try new way and now I'm really happy for the new doors opened in front of me . So, have patience and faith, think positive and say "42"! ^_^
Thankfully I'm not in desperate times. This is a setback and I've been reading all of these wonderful comments and finding inspiration to pursue what I love. If that can make even meager earnings then I would be so happy! We don't require much. I like the simple lifestyle.From the ashes rises a phoenix @silviabeneforti
I know is not easy to pass over these moments, especially at your age, but there is always a good side from everything what's happen. Even if now you don't see it, i'm sure in future you gonna better understand the reason.
Be strong and don't go down to depressions, it will just hurt more.
Somehow you will make it !
Even this positive vibe from all fellow steemians is something !
The positive vibes from the community has been outstanding! It's impossible to stay depressed with this kind of emotional and moral support. I'm inspired and starting to make things happen so I can guide the pathway to my dreams. It can happen. It will happen!
Sometimes, I think people cannot deal with honesty.
Agreed. Most people don't want to hear plain truth. I've always been the type to be honest and diplomatic. It stinks right now because I had plans. Well, the plans have not changed but maybe the timetable did - and I'm okay with that. :)
I'm sorry to that. Hopefully it's the universe's way of getting rid of stuff to bring in better. Good luck moving forward! x
Thank you @sarahwaring - off with the old and on with the new. I think I need to be way more specific with my requests from the universe in the future because the more I think about it, I got exactly what I asked for. I tell ya - the universe has a very strange sense of humor.
It certainly does. Do some visioning.........tell it what you want now. Good luck on your new ventures :-)
I'm so sorry, mere - I encountered that kind of nepotism and in-group snobbery many times but it always seemed to occur in 'jobs' - paid duty servitude. You are a wise woman. Instead of gritting your teeth and enduring the grind, go for something that is your passion and try getting paid for that. It will be a lot more fulfilling in the long run (hint: you are tres compassionate - that's your heart, Girl - work for an animal rescue or a halfway house, a hospital, youth center, or a senior's centre. Those people will love and appreciate you, like we do) xxoo
My passion is definitely helping people. I love working from home and writing and if money was no object, I'd be expanding on my growing love of drawing and painting. But my earnings here on Steemit have been going to 100% power ups and not consistent enough to say this is my job. But wouldn't that be a wonderful thing?
I've got ideas though...and the emotional support here is phenomenal. I am physically wiped out but the ideas running through my head are rejuvenated. I feel as if I'm on the brink of renewal - like a phoenix. :)
this is a bend in the road and if you follow your heart something good will be waiting around that curve, something you really want
We will not fire you from here!
💖
Steemit would have to shut down to get rid of me. But maybe I shouldn't say that. My luck hasn't been too good lately. LOL
I FIGURED MUCH! Lol :)
No way man, sending good vibes your way. You don't deserve that twaddle!
Sometimes I think I might have been a complete twat in a past life because it sure feels like I'm paying back karma for something. Le sigh.
Yeah, at least you think you're is from a past life. Mines is from an earlier part of my life!
I'm sorry to here your tummy was upset and you can't move into a better home. I've been in both places (I've been fired once, I was so happy, freaky nasty supervisor). I would ask my supervisor why I was fired so I could learn from the experience. I am Super curious why your former employer let such a smart kind person go! Big hugs❤❤❤❤
I wish I knew the real answer with certainty but the only thing I can guess is the one signing the paychecks didn't like the fact that the new gal made a good suggestion and rocked the boat her first week. He must have been stewing about it for weeks because I didn't have any other "run ins" with anyone since. We're still trying to see if we can scrape together the first and last month's rent for the better home. It may require eating ramen noodles for a few weeks. Fingers crossed!
I send a word to the universe that your stars align just right💫💫💫
Thank you!
a little @reddust juju in the universe would be amazing and truly appreciated. XOXOX
Good luck for the future! I hope you feel already a little bit better again and very soon will find a really satisfying and interesting way to earn enough money again.
thank you @jaki01 - my dearest wish for everyone is to find their true path. I think happiness has to come with a few bumps in the road otherwise we would never appreciate the good times. Part of my disappointment is that I really don't need to make more than $1000 a month for hubby and I to live comfortably. So I wasn't seeking work that required a lot of thinking! Unfortunately, I'm always looking for more efficient, smart ways to improve and my input wasn't appreciated. LOL I do feel better today - a lot better. The Steemit community is absolutely wonderful.
"don't burn a single bridge" true we will need them afterwords
but a few cop cars? That's not a big deal
We definitely need our bridges. I still have connections from high school - as miserable an experience as that was! LOL It's kind of cool to see how we've all branched off to do our adulting things. I've actually gotten freelance work because of those connections. Bridges are GOOD. Cop cars? LOL... I can't say anything about that. We recently got a Crown Vic retired from the fleet on the super cheap.
Okay first off this let me start by saying this is not about you. Like most any other relationship people sometimes don't mesh and this particular bunch sound like drama queens to start with. If they are going to fire and hire based on personality then they need to treat it like any other relationship and be open about their own personalities and values. You said you offended a few people and they said that "would endanger the well-being and cohesiveness of their small team"? Yeah okay, not a group I'd want to work with in the first place but even if one was going to I'd suggest finding out specifically what offended them and how they felt threatened. Not because I think one should change but in order to avoid similar personality types in future. You are who you are and shouldn't have to change for anyone but that doesn't mean you have to needlessly interact with overly sensitive special snowflakes that'll get offended by you just being yourself.
Frankly I think if people are so overly sensitive they should just order their stuff online.
You are very intuitive! I think my problem was that I spoke up and asked questions challenging the status quo because I personally didn't have a problem or speak badly about anyone there. And to be told that I would endanger anyone (or any thing for that matter) is so far from who I am as a human being that I was completely floored by such a ridiculous statement. LOL
It certainly did have a high school cliquey feel to it and I heard plenty of grumblings and saw the eye-rolls when they talked about each other - not necessarily mean but definitely petty...and none of my business. I wasn't there to make friends. I was there to make a little money.
So the place where I formerly worked manufactured specific products sold exclusively online. It was strange but I never heard the phone ring -- not once!
I guess if I was going to speak my mind about training processes and making things easier for the next warehouse floor monkey they probably thought I would sabotage their customer service efforts - which, in the month-plus that I was there had never actually got to do the job I was hired for. Strange indeed
Yeah be glad you got out when you did. They sound like brainwashed conformist millenials.
"conformist millennials"... I had to chew on that for a little bit because it seems like an oxymoron but we have conformists in every generation. LOL The more I think about it the more relieved I personally am about not returning. My pocketbook, on the other hand, is used to being light. sigh
Most millenials I know don't challenge the establishment. They may be foodies and buy organic food but they don't stand up for the right to own land and grow food. They don't bother with encrypting their data. International trade deals that compromise their civil rights never enter their sphere of attention. Half of them are for gun control. The notion that public education is a form of social engineering never occurs to them. While they may not watch TV they're all over corporate social media, and totally oblivious to the fact they're spamming their personal data to not only the government but every corporation within reach. And the notion of border security is totally foreign to them while at the same time civil rights is also totally foreign. Don't get me started on the vaccinations and health in general. It's just general trust in government and the media. It's not always like that, not all melenials are like that but it seems to be the trend. Very multicultural, very democratic, very hypersensitive to emotions, but also very oblivious half the time of reality. I mean they elected Trudeau for crying out loud because of his looks! And he's not even making weed legal like he promised. I'm not even that bloodly old and there's a marked difference.
But you're right there are conformists and individualists in every generation. We have to do this every time round.
I've been let go from a job before without a real explanation of why. I think I unintentionally upset someone without realising it. You just have to move on and maybe find something better. Good luck
??? I'm dumbstruck. Possibly because they have to be some of the dumbest people I've ever heard about, and I don't have a problem bashing them whatsoever!!
I'm sure many people on this post told you that it's not your fault, but I'm going to reiterate. It is NOT your fault that some people are dumb. Idiots. Fools. It just happens to be the roles they've chosen to play to irritate the rest of us enlightened, wise, and super cool individuals.
The price tag on this post makes me want to give steemit a big old hug ;)
Wow that is so disappointing! Sounds like a crap reason on their part. Really hope it all leads to bigger and better things!
Sorry that I missed thIs post for some reason. I know that you will be fine and I have great confidence on your ability to overcome any obstacles!
Blessings to you and yours!
