Hired and Fired in 3 Hours—Is This a Record?

Ever had a day so bizarre you question if you’re the punchline of a cosmic joke? That was me yesterday. I landed a new job in a bustling downtown office, only to be shown the door before my coffee even cooled off. From the moment I walked in, the team seemed tense, and my new manager barely made eye contact. Three hours later, I was told it “wasn’t a good fit.” No explanation, just a handshake and a security escort. I’m left wondering—was it something I said, or just bad office politics? Now I’m stuck replaying every moment, desperate for answers. Has anyone else been through something like this? How do you bounce back from such a whirlwind? Any advice would mean the world right now. 😔🤷‍♂️ #WorkplaceDrama #CareerAdvice #JobSearch #JobCareer
