I was hired Sept. 25 to a customer service job even though I knew nothing about this particular job. The owner/man who hired me was very charming and seemed to be a very nice man who wanted to help a divorced mother of 2 and I was very grateful. He was starting me at a very good salary.The first day there he personally sat me down to begin my training and at noon he took me to a nice place to eat,started a conversation about our personal lives, told me that he and his wife never had much to do with each other any more and asked me about my divorce and "don't you get lonely?". When I replied that I don't really get lonely because I have a very nice boyfriend, I noticed his demeaner changed. When we got back he worked with me a little while till he got a couple of phone calls and then asked his receptionist to take over the responsibility of teaching me the job for the rest of the day. To make a long story short, the receptionist was responsible for my traing from then on. She was far too busy to do an effective job and 8 weeks later he fired me with a letter that he left with his manager after he went out of town on a business trip.The note said he was sorry, but the job was a bad fit and there was not enough time for anyone to train me so I was fired. This I feel was terribly unfair. Is there anything I can do or should I just chalk it up?
