Today, I witnessed my girlfriend get fired from her job at a coffee shop after just over a month of employment. She had a performance review a couple of weeks ago where everything seemed fine, but after taking two days off for a wrist injury, she was called in and abruptly let go. They asked her to leave the premises immediately and instructed her not to speak to any other employees. This feels really harsh and unusual to me. I’m trying to understand if this kind of treatment is normal in the workplace. It seems like they might be worried about her being upset, but it feels excessive. I’m also concerned about the legality of the situation, especially since her injury might have been work-related. I think we need to look into her rights and possibly consult a lawyer.
