Qubit Posted June 2, 2016 Posted June 2, 2016 (edited) Cont.. of http://osbot.org/forum/topic/99450-got-fired-because-im-retarded/ So, I emailed my boss 3 days ago and no response. The also need to message me because the company still owes me money away. But, I was fired for drinking alcohol on company property and admitted to it. But I've been building an argument of evidence to presents that I was never drinking, but it is pretty weak.. Evidence (kind of weak): - Fired employees can vouch and say I never drank alcohol.. - Have a text from the person how bought the alcohol, admitting I never drank - I am taking medication which prohibits me from drinking for a total of 6 months, I have to take monthly blood tests because of it - I have a side of the story that aligns very well with what the boss imagined what happened, except I have names of 4+ people who were also involved and never got fired The job is a pretty unimportant summer job. I can easily get a better job, but I am fighting to get this one back merely because my boss fired me thinking I was scum and broke the rules and I believe I am a much better person than that and because of my character I never want to leave a job with my employer thinking I drank alcohol on the job. What do you think? Do you think it is inappropriate for me to call my employer tomorrow and ask for him to listen to me for a brief moment? Edited June 3, 2016 by Qubit
Timekeeper Posted June 2, 2016 Posted June 2, 2016 They don't care. You were drinking on company property, I don't even have to stress what a huge liability you are for that company. Multi-national companies spend a lot of money detecting employees just like you to terminate. Learn from it and move on.

Bitshift Posted June 2, 2016 Posted June 2, 2016 If you are truly innocent, then by all means, you should definitely do whatever you can to keep it.

Sponsor Posted June 2, 2016 Posted June 2, 2016 You said you admited that you was drinking so was this a lie ? i'm confused? don't be a grass and screw over other employers so you can get a job back aswell. If you can get a better one do it.

Aiban Posted June 2, 2016 Posted June 2, 2016 Just explain your situation and get the better job you said you could get easily this way its a win-win

And yes I read that you were drinking Dr. Pepper. Don't really understand what you are saying. I can't be mad at my employer for ignoring my email? How is my defense illegitimate? Do you understand Dr. Pepper is the best soda out there?
