I got fired. I dislocated my shoulder. Two doctors told me it’d take 4 weeks to heal.

I told my boss my progress every week and he kept wishing my healing well. Come the 3rd week, I let him know I’m ready to come back next week and he let me know he’d already replaced me….
I feel so much anger for the work industry. I give them so much: a commited schedule, a good personality, good customer service, conscientiousness, promptness, attention to detail, good and careful driving, good communication, etc.
I get injured and no loyalty. F-ing replaced me while pretending I still had the job and only let me know when I’m ready to come back.
Ducking bastards

- This is why people don’t care anymore. This and low wages that don’t mean shit anymore due to inflation. Good luck out there OP.
- And business owners and managers wonder why employees have no loyalty to their organization…..
- These are the type of companies that cry about loyalty when people quit without notice. Then wonder why they have retention issues.
- Companies do the “oh you are important” company cheering to keep people working. But the reality is they couldn’t care less and would literally toss your body out into the street. So, just remember, you work a job for YOU and what works for YOU. And when it no longer works for you, then quit and find the best situation for you. Period.
- Well, look it isn’t the end of the world, and you learned something important. You can trust no one. Loyalty is the web of lies people spin to appeal to your sense of belonging to a tribe. We all want to be a part of something bigger.
- Never allow yourself to feel like your employers are your friends. They are trying to take everything from you.
- If the person got hurt outside of work and couldn’t make it into work, I thought you could be fired. I’ve seen this happen at other jobs in the past. Happy to know it’s not true!
