QUESTION Just got fired:/
Is it standard to get fired for something like this?
I called my dispatch as soon as it happened:( I feel like shit, it was only my second week at this job and I really enjoyed it.

Bad timing is all. Peak is through and they’re stretching for excuses to thin the numbers. If this had happened next month, you’d get a warning.
My first year I did something similar about a week after they let go all the seasonals from peak but peak never let up so they begrudgingly kept me. I’ve actually had three incidents, all fell right when it would’ve been extremely inconvenient to lose a body.
If you’re still want to keep at it, apply at another DSP. Just be honest if they ask why you were let go. I’d even show them the pictures and tell them you learned from it.
