What should I say to my boyfriend that just got fired from a job he was in only 2 week? There was other people fired as well, I don't think it was him. I said that must be the most frustrating thing to go through, but other than keep saying that (or I'm sorry, which I heard guys hate to hear) What do I say???

Being canned is totally lame and can make you feel like a big loser. Just let him know that you know he must feel bad about it, but that his being let go after only two weeks (along with the others) cannot possibly be a reflection on him, being that they barely got to know him! Tell him he deserves to be treated better than that by his employer and encourage him to find another job quickly (being unemployed can really put a person in a funk!)

Yeah just say, "they are crazy for sacking you, they must be in financial difficulties, dont worry it wasnt personal, (as others got sacked) help him with his self -esteem, by saying he will get another job soon. You are proud of him for trying so hard. And its their loss"
