Being terminated for unclear reasons and for being the suspected person of wrong doings. And I was being told of those wrong doings all of the sudden (last week) and that some wrong doings has been happening for a while. But he can't even clarify what really happened. And he even said some other things he "suspect" me doing even he don't know who did it.

But during working there, I asked how is my performance, my boss said I am fine. He asked my coworker about me, my coworker said I am helpful. (I know this because my coworker told me)

We met Thursday to receive my last salary and return equipment. I tried to keep cool (and or end things nice and cool) on the last time I see my boss. I didn't say much, very minimum. I just smile a bit. (I don't know what to say and don't want to say anymore at this stage). He gave me a recommandation letter. But the letter is more about making a statement of his point. He left out one of the major thing I did. The letter is just about what I have done, with no compliments (things he mentioned to me that he things I did good at).

I feel upset. Did he have to do this? what's the point, does it really matters anymore? why he have to do this at the end. And he did small things for this last meetup, like he wanted to protest or something. It's like he is using this recommendation letter as a last shoot. He did that on purpose. I feel very upset. I dunno why.

p.s. He owns the business, so there's nothing like HR.

My question is have you talked to HR about what has happened? This is not right, no boss should be allowed to do this to an employee without explanation to why.

Ok, well so much for that business going on your resume then. I am not sure what else you can do except move on from this and realize it wasn't you.

Unless you have any past documentations of when you've worked there to show as evidence to help you go through court.

penguinsing, I am sorry this happened. In small business places, owners/administrative managers think they can do what they want to do anytime. Would you please check your employment package? Is there something that was written about write up and grounds for termination of employment? What was the employment agreement? Was there something in a document that the owner breached something? You may consult chamber of commerce and department of labor about your case.

You may also take it as blessing in disguise that there is something better out there waiting for you and that terminating you was their big loss.

Wish you the best.
