My job status went from on-call to laid off
I was let go because the boss didn't want a woman washing dishes in the kitchen. While I'm relieved to be gone from that workplace, I'm still angry. The only boss who supported me left after an argument with the owner. After he quit, the main boss took over, acting superior and making the environment unbearable. On 10/16, I started my shift at 4:00 PM and found the dish pit already overflowing because the morning shift was eliminated, and only closers were scheduled. I started cleaning, but the other cook, admitted they were only washing what they needed, leaving the rest for me.
