Thx. I now have no desire to ever return to that location. In fact, on my way to school each day, I take a different route to avoid even passing by that store. That would reduce my temptation to go in.

I reread the previous posts on this thread plus posts on other forums on this topic. I guess maybe it is inappropriate to ALWAYS show up to work on my days off. And to stay in the workplace for an hour or two after my shift ended. It's even worse if my only reason was to see a particular colleague, who'll then feel uncomfortable. If prolonged, it will lead to the consequence I have now.

btw, while I was waiting to follow up on my application, my supervisor went up to me and said, "If you're gonna sit there and stare at us, I'll get a restraining order." I immediately explained I was following up on my application and just waiting until it gets less busy. She didn't like my explanation and told me I was fired and not rehirable. She only mentioned the follow up because I asked.
