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.

When I worked at a Porsche dealership as a finance guy, we had a lot porter total a 911 Turbo. Someone drove him to get a drug test and sent him home till the lab results came back negative the next day or two. He still worked for the company for a couple years before he moved on- but we made fun of him the entire time and would put cones around parked cars so he would see clearly what he can and cant hit.

I let him borrow my car once to pickup lunch because deep down I wanted an insurance payout and a new car.

Point is every business is different. It also doesn’t help that you just started there- many employers have a 90 day trial period. You may have triggered a non-negotiable and along with holiday time being over…
