Hello,
i was in a sub management position at a security company working 24 hours a week on the weekends, (12 hour shifts on saturday and sunday). I was contacted 3 days before a shift and was told that they had found a replacement for my position. i was not given any notice at all nor was i told that i violated any rules. I was not terminated from the company but my hours were reduced to zero with only 3 days notice and was not given the chance to find anything else.
is there anything i can do about it?
i am put in a tough financial spot because of this. i was using my weekdays to obtain other skills and was depending on this position to support myself.
