FIRED!!! DAY 2 ORIENTATION

Thank you for your service.

 

Then why didn't you stay?

 

I am not here to give you emotional or thickskin trouble today.

Go to the unemployment after documenting carefully the post battle format of everything that happened to you in the frame work of this forum post you wrote today. Expand on it with names and titles of the Office drones who deemed you no pass.

You are a vet accorded some protections not normally allowed to us regular non vets in hiring. Take it to your state Unemployment or simiar and find the top hat heavy Sarge in from Decision makers and attempt to estlish a swearing in conference call to that employer who snipped some of your feathers. For the company to be dragged to trial they only want out because if you won your case for cause such as Scott vs SCOTUS for being starved out and not in top shape to run when called on to do it. If you do win it's going to be back pay all the way form day one of claim and a number of other goodies. Also you will force that company to be on record for the offense committed against you. There are people who are all over that kind of stuff.

It is not the end of the world. Companies will pick, choose the best of the litter until they have a crew with which they think they will coveted crew they put in the not so clean trucks. (See? I keep taking cheap shots at companies, they are big enough for a few dents here and there.)

 

Lease with a company that doesn't require all that security clearance crap and remember, you can't go to Canada because of the drug conviction.
Greatwide might take you; if not, there are others that will.

I actually don't mind someone with a little bit of lawbreaking. It shows they have grown a pair. Which will be useful at some point in this business.

 

i thought about the "vacation time" or some "leave of absence", but the new employer will be making phone calls, and from what i recall, that can make for ill feelings at the old employer. up to the point of being let go, and not returnable for rehire.

sticky wicket all around.

best that the new employer TOTALLY vetted the new worker, FIRST, before orientation, especially since he was upfront about everything.

he should be able to collect unemployment...however, the unemployment may ask him if his former employer will take hi back. if they say "yes", and he refuses, he may be denied unemployment benefits.

i been through "some of this crap" myself.......(except buying a truck)

 

So - the old job, no way to step back into that seat?
A - thx for your service.
B - we all have make bad choices.

 

If you completed probation you need to try to get your conviction expunged or if it was a felony reduced to a misdemeanor.
