I was recently hired as a server at Ricky’s All Day Grill in Edmonton, Alberta, but after completing 10 hours of training over three days, I was unexpectedly let go. I had been upfront about my availability, working part-time at another job with a set but flexible schedule. The manager initially seemed okay with my availability, but after I submitted my June schedule, he claimed he was having trouble with scheduling. When I called him today, he informed me that it wouldn’t work out due to my limited weekend evening availability. I was frustrated because I had clearly communicated my schedule from the start. I reached out to his wife, who also works there, and she was surprised by the news and said she would discuss it with him. I also contacted someone overseeing the Edmonton franchises to report the unprofessionalism of the situation. It’s disheartening because I had turned down another job opportunity thinking I was secure here.
