You're Fired!!!

By Leigh Martinuzzi

Have you ever been terminated? What a disaster! Or is it?

Many years ago I was terminated on the spot and put under investigation for some bullshit reason. At least that's how I saw it and I was proven right. But who truly gives a fuck?

At the time it was a bit of a blow to the head. To be honest it caused me a lot of stress. The sudden dismissal left me without work in a time of need. I just became a new father. Good news is that we were well off and could survive the hurdle. It was proven to be unfair dismissal but it didn't change the fact that I was now without work.

The experience left me with many kinds of emotions, confusion, slight depression, anger and strangely, a sense of excitement. This is my story and some of the lessons I learnt. One which I am grateful for.
