Give notice? You’re fired!
by Renee Chandel — Maine
A woman today shared with me the story of herself and her friend. They were both working for a store in Maine for two years. In that time the woman I spoke to earned a .25 cent raise, she was making $7.75 an hour. Each of the ladies were offered a job at a competing store in Massachusetts for $12.00 an hour to start in one month. They each gave their current employers a month’s notice and were fired on the spot. The woman I spoke to said that with her husband’s salary she was able to go without a few weeks of pay. Her friend, however, being a single mother was evicted from her home because she was unable to pay rent.
