My concern is with 2 things here

2. How do I address this gap in resume ?

I was written up over all this last week, fired this week. There’s a lot more to this but I think it’s because the DM doesn’t like me.

My boss fired me because i ask for clarification on my employment right.

I got hired not long ago. I realise some of the employee benefits i was told (missing in the contract) contradict with what’s stated on the law. So i email the boss about it and ask for clarification. Immediately after the email i was fired.

Just want to make sure people know this and don’t apply jobs in this shady company- it is called UniQ Biotech, in Delta, BC, Canada
