i got fucking fired. for a VERY DUMB REASON. i can probably talk about it now so here we go.
i had a job at little caesars for almost two years (would’ve been exactly two years this july) and i just recently got promoted to manager (december of last year). now thats great and all, but not long after (early to mid january this year) my gm got a report from our area supervisor that they’re now closely watching us bc somebody was caught eating the one food item we can’t take for free: the caesar wings.
we all thought, “oh that’s not that bad, that employee will get fired but we should be fine, right?”
WRONG.
we were put under investigation for violating the free food policy (lc calls it the “hero meal” policy). SEVERAL people were suspended, and some others have been fired. including myself.
however, the only reason we “violated the policy”, is because we didn’t fucking know much about it! apparently, you have to log the taken food as just “employee appreciation”, and then void it out. but did we know that? no. so basically, i, and several others, have been fired for not even knowing about the “correct” way to log the free meals.
i don’t even know if my amazing gm is still employed. she’s practically my best friend, and i love her so much (platonically ofc). we have almost nobody from our actual crew on the schedule, and our area supervisor is having to open the store.
but yeah, now i don’t have a job. whoop-de-FUCKING-doo.
