What a shitty situation
It seems like the most noteworthy time to write is when something emotionally charging happens. I feel helpless, powerless and have no where to turn. Before I was hired I explained that I had scheduled a vacation and at the time she said it was okay. Well it's vacation time and last week she told me it wasn't approved. She never informed me of an approval process.Up until last week I thought I was in the clear. Had I known, I would have never accepted the position. Well, she fired me. Why? Because I told her that I planned on taking the vacation I told her about BEFORE I was hired. The vacation that she now says I cannot take. What utter bullshit. She put me in a terrible postion. So, I went higher up and am awaiting a phonecall from the district manager. How did I get the DM's number? I called the Galleria, told the manager my situation and from the tone in her voice, I could tell she has been given this drama by store 109 before. She told me she had nothing to do with the place, that I was put in a terrible situation, and she wasn't sure if I was rehirable or not but that I should talk to the DM. I know this isn't the end of the world, hell it isn't even like I was going to make a career out of it but now I'm broke and in an all over shitty situation.
