Today, I was notified I'm being discharged after 2 weeks because my employers don't have the time to train me at my first real job in 6 years. FML

I know for sure in Canada that's illegal, though I'm not sure for the U.S. Sorry, OP.

Totally blows! They should have prepared for a new hire. Unfortunatly so many jobs are "at-will", so they don't need very much to getbrid of you. Especially in the early days.

I know the feeling man...got hired to work a manufacturing job then 6 weeks in got written up for not working to production standards because I was never properly trained on pretty much any of the machines we use...as soon as I find just as good or better I'm outta there before I loose a limb into a machine I'm running that I was never actually taught to use

I'm sorry to tell you this, but that was just an excuse because he saw no potential in you. That's the reality of it.

Are you the OP? no. OP hasnt had a job in 6 years. Sorry but if I didn't see the potential in a few days I wouldn't want to put in the work either.
