I got up an went to work this morning. Not really ready but need to work. All was good and normal. My supervisor showed up as usual around 9:00 a.m. we talked and laughed and off she went to her office. Her office is in another building on a different property. I left at 10:30 a.m. as always.
I get home. Check on mom. Get some soup. Talk to Dave. Phone rings.
Me: Hello
My Temp Service: Julie?
Me: Yes.
My Temp Service: This is K. with "name of company here". I just got off the phone with S. (my supervisor).
Me: Yes .... ?
K: She asked that we phone you and tell you to turn in your keys .... your help is no longer needed.
Me: ***dead silence***
K: Julie?
Me: Huh? Why?
K: She said you just didn't quite fit in. No complaints about your performance.
Me: What?
K: Are you surprised by this?
Me: Yes. Just slightly. I don't get it.
K: Are you ok?
Me: No .... not really.
K: I have another assignment for you if your interested. It's in the next town over (30+ miles away).
Me: I'm still in shock here ....
K: Well, you calm down a minute and call me back.
WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED? OMG ......
In California they can fire you without giving a reason. And "not fitting in" is not a good reason here. I "fit" in just fine. I worked alone. How the hell can you not "fit in"?
AM I TRULY DESERVING OF THIS? I DON'T KNOW. I HAVE NEVER BEEN TREATED SO BADLY ANYWHERE ELSE (MEANING GEOGRAPHY WISE) BY EMPLOYERS. I WORK HARD. I THINK I'M FAIRLY INTELLIGENT. I'M JUST DYING INSIDE RIGHT NOW .... DAMN IT! SHIT!
The job wasn't that great .... but that's not the point. God help me ....
