Even D-heads deserve some compassion, if even only once. ---steaming pile of meadow muffin--- happens. Don't let it get to you. Just trudge on knowing it can always be worse. Climb out of the shitter, wash off and start again. Consider it a learning experience. |

I was fully aware of all cameras and tracking avenues. --- End quote --- Were these 'Other Ops' your bosses? If not, it doesn't matter if they knew... the only one that counts is your boss and if you didn't clear it with them first, then you really don't have anyone else to blame but yourself. If you did clear it with your boss first, then there is certainly more to this story that you are not telling us. |

Not pretending I know the situation, but I have heard both the "My badge gave me access" and the "Others knew I was here" arguments at my work, and those firings were well justified. Granted, they were both said by temp employees and not regular staff. I think you need some tenure before people know you enough to understand. (BTW, have you checked temp agencies for work?) A big separation of the free shower facilities at my work is that they are intended to be a convenience during your work day, so you can exercise and shower and get back to work inside your work shift hours. I think if any employee came in at night to shower and do personal things it would be suspicious. The extent of facilities open for employee use ends with the normal workday. Bosses can be be pretty understanding, and if you had a situation, in a lot of cases, they would be understanding and work out a soultuon. If you don't feel comfortable telling your boss exactly what you are doing ahead of time, then you are almost definitely doing something wrong. I'm not pointing this out to be an ass at all, it is something to keep in mind during your next job so you are not on the rocks again. I feel for your situation, but I have seen enough employees bounce from job to job because they don't fully understand the natural boundaries at a workplace, and they let a tough personal life repeatedly interfere with how they are perceived at work. We just had an employee come and go who doesn't own cooking facilities, so she bought all her groceries and stored them in the break room fridge, and cooks a couple hours per day in the lunch room using multiple microwaves and half the dishes in the cabinet. She made breakfast, lunch and dinner from scratch, which I get is much cheaper and heathier, but a breakroom isn't really a place to dice onions or scramble eggs. Plus, our fridge was filled to the brim and smelt. She would stay extra long to make up for her time cooking (which was an issue as well), but she was canned heavily because she was abusing the facilities. She did this at her prior two jobs and was fired because her bosses were suspicious of her as well. I feel bad for her living situation, but she had the opportunity to have a career here if she had learned to work out a less intrusive solution until she saved enough to improve her conditions. |

Xiaou shouldn't really be discussing if his actions were just or not, but instead be learning how to not let this happen again. If I was your boss, and I learned of your situation, I would have provided you some guidance, or I would have told you why you can't do it. Either way, I would be protecting you to ensure you either have permission or stay employed. Good luck Xiaou. I know times are tough right now, but you have to look forward and put as much positive spin on it as you can. |
