'I have no clue [why I was fired.]': Experienced barista gets inexplicably fired after first day at new job
Starting a new job is always tough. Sure, you might have tons of knowledge and industry experience, but there's always a different way of doing the same old thing at every new organization you walk into. You might think that a square peg would always just fit into the square hole, but your new job may require you to revolve the square 360 degrees clockwise, counterclockwise, and then on a vertical axis—all before putting it in the same square hole you always did before.
Sure, it may be stupid, pointless, and a waste of time, but you'd better wait until you've gained their trust before you tell them that; otherwise, you might be going through the same paces at yet, another new job.
Still, even if you do everything right, you might find yourself sent inexplicably down the road—just as this barista was after their first day. Their situation is tough, most managers would appreciate someone who is willing to ask questions instead of getting things wrong, but there are always those ol' boys out there who admire a worker's gumption and intuitive instinct and expect workers to figure it out themselves without a word being spoken.
The barista shared their experience on a popular Reddit subreddit for workplace discussion. An update they shared makes it look like one of their new coworkers might have made up lies about them to get them fired. Brutal.
Read on to see their account of events. Next, check out this worker who was fired for missing work after being injured trying to stop a shoplifter.
