I just needed to get this off my chest because I haven't even told my family I've been fired yet.
I worked at a bakery, and it was one of the best jobs I ever had, I got there early and worked hard every day. I was still in training when I was fired. I scheduled my car for maintenance and it would take a day I asked for the day off a week in advance which is the norm. She said she would fire me if I was a minute late so I payed for my grandpa to rent a car and borrowed his since I'm too young to rent a car and made it to work on time.
I was supposed to train for two weeks but she wanted me done in 1 so I had to quickly memorize every ingredient in every bread and pastry as well as every procedure. I did the early morning set up twice and upon inspection I made only one mistake on my first try which was slightly too much powdered sugar on some fruit muffins.
Plus there was this girl who was training with me that started a week earlier and was getting the full two weeks, who made massive mistakes and spilled stuff regularly and still wasn't fired.
I think it's because she hates men, she openly stated that "men can't handle this easy job" during my interview.
Edit: The reason she gave me was that the store I was training to work at had "enough staff" even though it was critically understaffed and she often had to ship workers from the other store to staff it. The other workers hate having to drive there and say they already work too many hours.
edit again: Just called both the bakeries and they both state that there are still job positions available.
