Written Job Offer Rescinded=jobless

[RNlvn]

I'm feeling pretty crappy because today was horrible. I cried most of the day. One of my worst days ever. So I have been working at a job for 5 yrs then I received a written job offer for a better job. So reluctantly I put in my two weeks notice. Monday 3/14/16 was suppose to be my orientation for the new job. However I received a phone call today (last day at my current job) from HR at the potential job saying they have to rescind the offer because of unfavorable reference. She stated I was not eligible to be rehired at a previous job (2010) So since they (potential employer) brought my previous employer out it applied to them to. I emailed her proof that I gave a two weeks and worked out my two week notice. I called my old manager back to see if I can rescind my notice he stated I would have to reapply for the position since I was out of the system. I have a feeling he won't rehire me. I have awesome performance reviews; I just feel like he would find someone he wants to hire like a previous coworker (small town). So now I am jobless/unemployed. I don't know what to do. Its Texas so I highly doubt I can sue. I just feeling they should have thoroughly did an employment verification before offering me the job.

You are on an anonymous forum. People are going to share their thoughts and opinions. If you are only looking for sympathy, you may be in the wrong place. People are going to tell it like it is.

Its people like you that is the reason people don't comment or post. I wonder would people tell it like it is if they were not anonymously behind a keyboard. And I absolutely was not looking for sympathy but experiences and insightful comments not unsolicited opinions. I didn't think this post would even get looked at twice honestly but thank you to all that left encouraging words, past experiences and insightful comments.

Actually, it's really people like you who get offended by everything and get mad when they aren't told what they want to hear that make people not want to comment. And yes, I would have said the same thing to your face. I'm not hiding behind a keyboard.

@springchick I am not mad; no ma'am, I blessed. I am also not offended because of people like you Trump has the potential to be president. Please find something better to do with your time because this thread will be closed.

Let's get back on track and focus on the topic of a rescinded job offer, people. Personal attacks are unwelcome and must stay out. Thanks in advance.

Done. Have a most pleasurable Monday, everyone. I generally dislike the Monday after the Daylight Savings time change due to losing one hour of sleep, but the adjustment will come soon enough. :)
