Yesterday I called the bakery and told them that I was healed enough and ready to come back to work.
They fired me.
I took too much time healing from bone marrow donation surgery, and it was during my probation period. They decided that they covered my shifts so easily that that they didn’t actually need to hire someone in the first place.
Was I doing a good job prior to surgery at work? Yup.
Did they know when they hired me that I was having surgery and would be out for a few days? Yup.
Sigh. Back to being unemployed.
This bakery is Cupcake Royale in Seattle. Their phone number is 206.782.9557. You know, just in case you need it.
I’m dismayed that a purveyor of cupcakes could be capable of such poo. I’m sorry, Marne.
Did the postcard Addy mentioned make it any better?

Hah, it sort of did– I think it’ll make me feel a little more special when I actually see it. I feel like Addy may keep it for herself…

I just might…
Hah.
Oh, btw, I wrecked my car today at the corner of Rt 50 and Old Gick. You shoulda seen it!
Sigh…
