I am facing the possibility of being laid off from both of my jobs in the hotel industry, which has left me feeling quite surprised and frustrated. At Job A, where I've worked for three years, a new company took over and implemented changes that have significantly decreased my income. The latest change involves removing gratuity, which will cost me over $500. At Job B, I've only been there for a month, and while the pay isn’t great for a luxury hotel, I was hopeful. However, when I requested a few days off for school, they immediately started looking for my replacement. Manager 1 claimed they weren’t against education but hinted that it detracted from the performance expected at the hotel. Manager 2, the general manager, gave me a vague response about whether they could accommodate my request, but the next day, I noticed they had already posted my position on Indeed and were actively searching for someone new. It really frustrates me how employers often don’t give any warning before laying you off and expect you to find a new job in such a challenging market.
