Please help. I've worked as a receptionist / cashier for a local Ford dealership for the past 2 1/2 years. I've had nothing but positive feedback from my employer about my work. I decided some time ago that a $13.50 an hour wage was not life sustaining and with only a High School education I've applied to the Canadian Armed Forces. Wanting to be fair with my employer (and they have been excellent to work for) I told them my plans. I am only in the early stages of applying and still have to write the aptitude test this Thursday. They advertised my position immediately and yesterday told my they have hired my replacement who starts in two weeks. It will take me two weeks to train her. I don't know what their plan is for me after that. I haven't given actual notice as it could be months before I leave or even if I'm accepted. What are my rights to being let go without cause and their obligations to me? Thank you.
