#gonna start a blog thats 'ask a momager' 🤓

[1eos]

Hello! If it's okay, can I ask you for some advice? I was recently fired from my job after missing too many days...my Crohn's was flaring up and accommodation wasn't enough. There also was a change in management and I could tell they wanted to be rid of me. I was there for 7 years and I don't know what to say on future applications when asked about my employment history, like am I allowed to lie? Or how do I spin it in a different direction, it was my first job and I guess I'm just scared for the future if that makes sense. I understand if you don't answer this, but thank you for reading and sorry for the long ask. I'm a longtime follower and your blog, or rather you, are so lovely; I hope that only good things come your way. 💞💞

😞im so sorry to hear you got fired anon. i actually read this to my mom who's a manager who does hiring at her job and got her opinion as well. she said when asked just say that you left due to complications change in management bc essentially everything was fine until management came and its best to paint it in the most neutral light bc u wanna use those 7 years of work experience but just in case new jobs call the old job you don't want to have a totally different story.

and what *i* would recommend is to 100000% use that job on your resume bc you stayed a good long time and employers love to see that. if you can for references from that job if possible use the names of managers that you worked with BEFORE the ones that fired you. bc theyll obviously have better things to say!!!!! and idk if this will help you any but askamanager blog has really helped me figure out how to play the employment game a lot better and she has some articles on navigating making the best out of being fired when you're moving forward so maybe this will help?

no matter what you end up doing ill be hoping praying manifesting that you'll find an even better position that caters to your needssssssssssss 😣💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖and thank you SO much for the well wishes may we BOTH have nothing but good things in the futureeeeeeeeeeeeee mwah mwah mwah
