BDO fires and you are gone that day within an hour. Advise to all NEVER use your work computer for things you will need personally. It will all be lost when fired. If you are lucky you will get some severance but not a lot. Apply for unemployment and start looking.

Have seen a SM and a staff2 get laid off on separate occasions. Both were given same day notice and escorted out of the office swiftly thereafter. They didn’t even have time to collect their personal knick knacks from their desks...eventually coworkers that were close to them outside of work collected the items for them.

Call you into partners office with HR rep. They tell you that you are no longer working at the firm. You leave office, turn in your computer and you leave.

My coworkers got fired but the company is nice enough to tell them that they give them a week to find another “better fit job” so they don’t get a record of being fired. Basically he was “let go”.

Been there, had NO idea it was coming. Basically begged and knew I had to find a way out in 6 months...and did.

They gave you 6 months to find a new job? That's not too bad.

Usually you are put on a PIP. So you should see it coming. Not usually fired without any warning except in unusual circumstances I don’t think they respond to unemployment so I was able to get unemployment benefits cause I said I got fired not due to work performance (and had good feedback). My boss didn’t like me, didn’t understand my role or his team’s role and thought I should be doing miracles for the rest of the team

Thoughts?

I rented a house that had been vacant for a bit & the prior tenant didn’t do a thorough job cleaning up. Agent indicated the owner would be open to having the house cleaned but I would need to have the house professionally cleaned when I moved out (that was fine w me). I just received the bill from the owner for $250, which is super annoying bc there was no expectation communicated that I would foot the bill for this, more so bc the cleaner did a LOUSY job.
