Just been fired :(

Thankyou everyone for your words of wisdom and encouragement. I appreciate it more than i could ever express.

I had only been in the job three months. Basically it was decided at the end of the three months that i was not performing well. I can understand that i had many areas to improve on, especially in terms of communication as i am very shy. But the report they wrote about me did not have one nice thing on it! And i know i do have some areas of strength as well (well i am pretty sure i do...) I had not been happy working there all along, was getting very stressed and depressed, so maybe it was for the best. I just wish i had resigned weeks ago instead of letting it come to this.

I had not thought of asking co-workers, or teachers, or people from previous jobs for a reference. These are all good ideas. Now my resume will not look so empty! There are a number of staff who i know would back me up. But does that put them in an awkward position to ask for a reference?

Thanks again,

Skye
