For not showing up on a day that I wasn't scheduled for!![]()
Ok, short synopsis: last night as I'm walking out the door, the manager (who is quite tempermental and I'm pretty sure a cokehead but is generally OK to deal with) approaches me and asks if I can work tomorrow/today. Seeing as my mom and me had plans for a day at the spa that we booked and paid for a month ago, I simply replied "I'm sorry, I can't". Manager then speaks briefly about how there are only 6 girls booked for tomorrow, and we're starting to lose business because we don't have enough girls, blah blah, OK fine, goodnight. No big deal.
As I'm leaving my apartment today to meet up with my mom, I get a call from the other manager, who is a bit more buddy-like in his approach. He asks me what happened, that manager A is pissed off because I'm not "helping out" the club and that I told him I "wouldnt work" because I don;t make money on Thursdays!!! WTF, I NEVER said that at all!!! I told manager B that I never said anything like that, that I simply had other plans and that it's not fault if they don't have enough girls. Manager B says OK, I'll see you on saturday (my next scheduled shift).
2 hours later, Manager A calls me and I call himback in the bathroom.
"Are you coming in?"
"No, I can't"
"Then you can't come back. " Hangs up.
10 minutes later Manager B texts me, "Sorry, I was told to tell you you're fired".
Sorry, I guess that wasn't all that short, but I'm just having a big WTF moment. LAST NIGHT the manager was going on about not having enough girls working, and I always work the days I'm scheduled AND I always come in at 4 (which is when we open, most girls come in between 6-7)..and I get FIRED because I can't work an extra day on 14 hours notice??? I'm kind of freaking out because this is the only club I've ever worked at for more than a couple of shifts; in fact, I've been there a year and a half now and not only is the money very good but also very steady for me at this club (and the environment safe and comfortable, a rarity in Jersey it seems). At the same time, though, there is NO WAY I'm gonna kiss anyone's ass to get my job back when I didn't do a goddamn thing wrong except buy my mom a trip to the spaWhat should I do? Any words of advice or wisdom?? I'm feeling pretty irate right now but also shocked and kind of stung. I should also mention that lately, they've been calling girls they've fired before to come back and work...just...wtf???

The boss didn't mind it since he's already in a good mood
