Question Posted Wednesday February 13 2008, 10:58 pm
ok i have been working this job for a year but i was not making enough money to just work there so i got another job...my boss was cool about it but i needed off 2 days to train but then i found out i needed another day off so i did not want to ask off for that job another day so i asked off to help my sister when i was really training...Well i got off and i went to train well my boss called my other job asking if i was there and when they said yes he fired me... i was wondering if you think it is right that he called my other job? I mean i gave him a reason that should be good enough its my personal life.

It sounds to me like your other boss was just looking for a random excuse to fire you and you gave him the perfect opportunity. To answer your question, though, it was kind of odd for him to do that to you.
In the future, don't feel like to have to make up excuses to go train for another job. Tell them what happened, you made a mistake, and offer to take extra hours another time if they get pissed at you.
If you are upset about this, maybe you could go and try to talk thinks out with the boss that fired you and you could apologize and ask for another chance. [ sugarplum07's advice column | Ask sugarplum07 A Question ]
