I just got fired from my job at a local restaurant about three hours ago. The reason given was that I had a bad attitude, wasn't attending to customers, and was on my phone too much. However, after talking with my coworkers, they all agreed that I was always at my station, helping customers, and being friendly. I think the issue stemmed from a confrontation I had with a chef earlier today. I told him to keep his drink in the kitchen, and since then, he seemed to be looking for reasons to complain about me. Today was actually slow, and there weren't many customers, so it was tough to be proactive when there wasn't much work to do. I spent some time crying in the bathroom after hearing the news. A coworker mentioned that people had been discussing me and thought I might get a warning, but I was just fired outright. Now I'm left with medical bills to pay for serious health issues, and instead of focusing on that, I'm dealing with this sudden loss of income and the stress that comes with it.
