I'm extremely heartbroken. I was in looking for a job for my wife and future daughter and I was told apply at TransWest by multiple people along with other jobs so I did and everything seemed amazing. The staff was nice and professional, office is clean and everything was good. I asked where I can put my availabilty on the application and she said I can put it on my interview. Later I made it to an interview and explained I have joined a Church that starts on Tuesday from 7:00PM-10PM so I can't work those hours along with Saturdays around the times of 6AM-10PM (On Saturday) and that I can work graveyard, for example from 10PM on Friday through Saturday and end at 6PM and Saturday at 10PM graceyard and she was really nice and let me know everything was good so I called the next day and she let me know my orientation is on Monday at 9:00AM and me and my wife got so excited because I have been job searching for 5 days straight and I need to plan a baby shower which will be so, so late due to money issues and 2 hours after I got the call for my orientation another job I applied for called me and asked if I can start on Monday so I let them know I was very appreciative oc the offer but that I bad recently been hired and my orientatiom was going to start Monday at 9:00PM. So to shorten things up I passed my orientation and when I did so, I was told to start at the same day I passed for a graveyard shift on Friday all the way to 8AM though I clearly let the lady that interviewed me know my worship times. I felt so sad when I got told to do so which showed they didn't listen during the interview but to make things much worse I got told by the lady who wanted me to work on Saturday to go to the front and to speak to the lady that interviewed me and she lead me to a room and lied to me saying that I told her that my availablity was open. I never said this and was very specific on the times I can work. Saturday 10PM through Saturday 6AM is very available and I let her know I can work for Christmas, Thanksgiving, Easter, New years type of Holidays which I feel looked good for me but overall the worst part was being lied to... it hurt my feelings because I felt useless. I just want a lie detector test. Christians like me are obligated to honest, so her saying that I said otherwise about my availabilty really hurt me along with the fact I turned down a job for TransWest This isn't just my future but my families as well... by the way Jovon is really amazing. I would not ever want for the lady to ever fired or scorned harshly for this but retaught just a bit and to listen more to the interviews because if she did and didn't hire me I would have secured a job elsewhere but I may still end up being hired. I just feel at risk for my beliefs along with the fact that she lied saying I told her I was free all days of the week, which I would never do but I understand why she did because when the lady that wanted me to work on Saturday found out that I couldn't and that I explained this on my interview, she got very mad at the lady who interviewed me. Honestly I will edit this to 5 stars if everything gets resloved from this misunderstanding but as of now the message has to be out there so the staff can learn from it. It's not like the people are bad but I got lied to and lost a job for something that could have been prevented just by listening a bit more while taking interviews. I need a job for my family and this really hurts when you happily drive 30 minutes from your house while jobless thinking you found a spot to grow and take care of your wife & daughter...
EDIT: I been terminated for 'lying' though I have emphasized my love for my Church while in the orientation and the letter we had to write about ourselves before the orientation and said everything God would want me to in the orientation. I am seeking legal attournies for this. I've wasted so much money on gas and got a flat while running over a screw while driving there and I'm only getting paid one day of orientation. The disrespect...
