Her: but we’re you guys hiding under the racks and sending each other chats and photos?

Me: no that part didn’t happen. We just added each other and it just took a second. Other than that, we only checked the time.

Her: well you’re not supposed to have phones on the floor at all.

Me: did they mention anyone other than me and [coworker]?

Her: no just u two.

Me: (sarcastically) well we’re the perfect scapegoat ain’t we?

After she laughed, she said another thing she wanted to talk to me about was temp season was ending and my last day would be the next night (December 24). I was originally scheduled through the 29th. Then again, the computer does the schedule, not people. All the managers do is make adjustments as needed.

And now my parents give me hard times about the phone use. Especially since most other seasonal people stay another week or 2. I was among the first to go. My other seasonal coworkers are nervously awaiting their fate. If the real reason was the phone use, wouldn’t my supervisor have said so? And she wouldn’t have said I did a good job. Last night was my first night away from home. It was a relief! Should I just agree to disagree?
Well, based on this new info, it sounds like the phone usage may have been part of the decision.

If I recall, this is a pattern for you with breaking rules that have been clearly explained to you. If you aren't supposed to have phones on the floor then why did you have a phone on the floor? They only keep a few people after the holidays, so it sounds like you sealed your fate by breaking the rules.

And my guess is that your supervisor was nice to you about it so you wouldn't raise a ruckus while she was letting you go.

Many times they smile to your face while shitting in your hand.

Start obeying the rules and these things will stop happening.
