Welp.

Shit head boss wins. Fired for reasons of "not a good team player." I had a coworker who had outright stated I was the only reason he was still at that job. I documented the hell out of shit. I communicated thoroughly. I got along with everyone.

But my boss constantly had vague shit about me not getting along with people. Never anything concrete. Never any actual situations. Just vague handwavium.

And I got fired for it.

I once got fired from a paralegal position because:

  1. I was scheduled to be off a day for a school event.
  2. The attorney had court that day, and the situation was supposed to be resolved.
  3. The attorney did not resolve the situation and the case got continued.
  4. The attorney did not give me any paperwork related to this, or give me any indication that the case was anything but resolved.
  5. The attorney did not put the new date on the calendar.
  6. The attorney was on vacation when the new day rolled around, so nobody was there to argue it.
  7. I got fired for not putting a case date on the calendar when I could have had literally no way of knowing that the case was even still open, since our county does not use the statewise case tracking system.

Sometimes, asshole bosses win.
