21 crazy days

last night we went to out to dinner to celebrate a good friend's firing. or rather she was let go from her 6 year part time job that she was very good at. great even. she was sort of an ambassador of the retail establishment( i won't even mention the name this still family owned and probably soon to be in the toilet retail store) and everyone who came in contact with her, loved her. so why was she fired?? did she steal something? not this saint...NO.... was she rude to a customer?? Miss Congeniality...NO....so why, well her numbers for the month of June were down...after 6 years of doing excellent at her job, it came down to numbers, for a part time job. did they care that she always did the restocking and the cleaning up and settling up, so that the full time workers could ring up sales? did they care that she used medical leave time in june because her father is ill, and that is why her numbers were down? apparently not. i just don't know why they didn't tell her the truth?? that the store is in trouble and that some genius figured by firing the part time, non benefit employees they could save money! okay, so why didn't they start there? why make her feel as if she did something wrong? she didn't do anything wrong and she knows she didn't do anything wrong, but they made her feel as if she had, and that is WRONG. you shouldn't treat people as if they do not matter and i will never shop thereagain.
