Fired due to insecure boss
I started a new job as a pizza delivery driver , first day went great. Not a problem , management seemed happy. Only thing was the boss asked me about my life and seemed a bit rattled by the fact that I had bright future ahead of me.
I graduated with a bachelors and I’m studying for law school , he made it a point to tell me I “won’t be making money for 8 years as a lawyer”. Already that was a bit insecure but whatever.
Next day , I tried helping another employee lift something heavy, I was told not to help. The kid was still struggling and so I asked him if he needed help again. Boss overheard this and started pressing me about not listening and asked if it’s going to be a problem. I said no of course it just seemed like he needed help. Manager proceeds to fire me on the spot. As he was paying my last money in cash he asked me rudely if I had “100’s” I said no I’m broke and he whipped out money almost to flaunt it at me. When I asked why I’m being let go he said to “figure it out at my next job” and “to please leave his store”
I’ve never had an experience like this with a boss, worked for years and anytime I had conflict or made a mistake it was always fixed immediately.
EDIT- the kid was literally shaking on a step-stool trying to lift boxes from the top of one of those big drink fridges
