2 months ago I was hired at CASA BORINQUENA, A PUERTO RICAN RES. I eagerly awaited the opening date, which ended up stretching out for TWO MONTHS to June 7th. So I turned down multiple jobs in the meantime and now, just ONE WEEK after opening, they told me they aren't pulling business they were expecting and need to let me go. I have no cushion to pay last minute bills and feel I got screwed by these people while remaining loyal to their opening vision. Now idk what to do and am seeking support

I feel this is incredibly unfair and obviously stated not through fault of my own. They had a team of 5 people, myself included, and only one week after opening they let somebody go who was patient and eager to be a part of their vision. I feel taken advantage of and very screwed by CASA BORINQUENA, and unfortunately I CANNOT recommend anybody working at this establishment. It took me a while to get this job so I'm worried about my ability to pay bills in such a last minute unforseen circumstance. It feels like as a business they should have expected what the slow season should be, or at least wait longer than ONE WEEK after opening to start cutting employees from the very small team. It's a shame because I was very excited to be a part of this seemingly safe and dependable business but now I can't recommend anybody working for the disorganized undependable establishment, they should have been better prepared and it feels like they took advantage by leading us on and hiring more people just to be safe in case they had to cut somebody from the team. CASA BORINQUENA, such a pity and yeah..idk what to do so it's back to filling out endless job applications and hoping I'm not on the street in one month 😔

Advice when looking for Tech Consulting internships in Chicago or DC Metro? My GPA (3.04) has disqualified me from most major companies. I've opted to focus my efforts into my student organizations and helping others reach their goals, in doing this I compromised for a B average. Are there any firms that will accept recommendation letters with the application? The networking route is also something I am exploring, but haven't had much success thus far. Any help is welcome! Have a great day!
