That sounds a lot like what happened to me. My boss gave me a review telling me all the things I needed to improve. This was like in june. So in August, I sat down with her and her boss to see if I had made any improvement. She said that it was too early to tell
. Then in September after working the whole day, I was fired. All this happened in 2005,but it seems like it was just yesterday.
Have you applied for unemployment? if you haven't, do so first thing Monday.
