How long has it been since I was fired from my job?
I’ve been at my job for only four months, but the owner has already hired my replacement. She brought me into her office to let me know that “this isn’t working out” and had a replacement in by that afternoon!
Why was I fired and asked to train my replacement?
You could argue that her position is a business inefficiency and her position should be restructured to include more work and given to someone who can do that work if she can’t, but that’s on the company, not the admin. I’m also wondering how much the assistant is being compensated.
What should I do if I get fired from my job?
It’s not like the OP is going to get a good reference from her anyway! Don’t forget to immediately apply for unemployment, even though you will be relocating. Besides providing you with some cash, the claim will count against your employer and their unemployment insurance rates will take a hit (call it karma).
Can a person be fired for being pregnant?
When you hire, you tend to want someone who will be there to do the work. This discrimination can be either conscious (“I’d like to hire Jane, but she’s pregnant and I can’t afford to have someone take time off.”) or unconscious (“Jane didn’t interview as well as John. Let’s go with him.”).

Can you work at a company that fired you?
Whether you left you job on good terms or can convince your old boss that you’ve learned the importance of good attendance and performance could determine whether you can go back to work at a company that fired you. Organizations that have rehire policies may be inclined to bring back a former employee, even if that employee was terminated.
Can a company fire you for working a second job?
Absolutely. Not only can they prohibit moonlighting, but they can fire you if they find out you are working a second job if you are violating any written policies or agreements. And if that 2nd job appears to violate the company’s trust or propriety ideas, not only could you get fired, but you could get sued.
Can you fire a new hire who isn’t working out?
