What To Do When You Get Fired

It's never a good experience when an employer lets you go, but what do you do after it happens? Can you turn it into something positive? Today Don discusses how you can turn termination from work into a positive, career-advancing experience.

Its really hard to stay positive when you are being treated unfairly

I was let go from my job today for apparantly "not being up to the standards expected from their employees", despite the fact that some of the things they expect wasn't made clear during my time there. It was the first time I was ever fired from a job, which kinda sucks, but that's okay because I tried my best, and it was their decision at the end of the day. I know that something better is on the horizon, so let's do this....

It's hard to not to lash out. When your boss doesn't give u a real reason for why they're firing you.

Got fired from a job years ago and although it was scary...it was a blessing in disguise - it was the worst job I've ever had in my life and a very toxic environment. Once I got over the shock I was grateful they set me free from the misery - LOL!

I was fired in early 2020 and instead of getting a new job, I decided to leave the corporate rat race and instead become an entrepreneur. I started selling my hobby illustrations on Instagram, and soon after I started teaching other people how to sell their passion projects online. Today I'm happily running my online business, set my own time, never worked harder, and never been happier! Getting fired was one of the best, if not THE best liberating things to happen to me, it made me zoom out and realize that there is a HUGE world out there with infinite possibilities to either waste or spend your life on. 'Getting fired' turned into 'getting set free'! It SUCKED at the start, and it will for you too, but you can choose to use it as a springboard for an amazingly better life if you let it! Good luck! 😊🙌

Bad employers need to be called out for their bad behaviors.

Just got fired today because I stood up for myself and told my ex boss to stop speaking to me in a wreck less manner. Told him in order to get respect you need to give respect and he let me go!

I just got fired today. 😫
I said to my boss, i understand, and i believe that many doors will open for me. (Just to divert mixed thoughts running in my head)

For all of those that are here I pray and love you. I’m currently in this situation and just got engaged on Valentine’s Day, and I’m expecting my first child on the 4th of July, so I’m slightly down, but this too shall pass and the best is yet to come. Pray for me.

i got fired and asked them for my last paycheck, they gave it to me and I quickly looked for other jobs. I found a job but in another city so i had to drive there with all my stuff and moved into a new apartment with my cat. it was a huge journey but i prayed to god every day and it happened

Yesterday, I was told I was suspended until further notice so today a decision was made and I was terminated. I take full responsibility and I can't undo or take back the error/mistake. I'm fine with it. Life goes on for me. Tomorrow is a new day.

[lorizigler]

I got fired by a NEW supervisor and he said I suggest you clock out and 2 days later I was hired at a job making 3 dollars more and got to come back for my check and face that asshole! lol

[andresramirez]

I was fired from a job after 2 weeks. Absolute bullshit. I did not thank them nor shake hands. I never looked back. The only thing i learned is too never accept offers from companies that are desperate for people

[jackson]

I was fired today. They didn't tell me anything besides "I wasn't meeting their standards". I take full responsibility whether I think it was fair or not. I've made it this far I've gotta keep going.

[BradenBierkos]

I got fired from a job I hated and the next day I was granted a call for my dream job. Life always has a way of working out for you.

[kyliewilliams]

I got fired for the first time in my whole life. It was my dream job.

[SethNap.]

right after I read the text that I was getting fired today I called other places and now I have a interview in last then a week from now.
No matter what always keep moving forward‼️

I just got fired from my first professional job. This helped me feel better, and seeing other people in my position have success in life made me feel so much better. I can get through this. I just wasn't a good fit for the company, and I'll refrain from sharing how I feel about them personally, but I know I went there and did the best I could in a job that really was meant for someone with more experience and knowledge.
