They got to me
I got fired from my job last night after three months for one small mistake. Still being trained, no prior write ups, no complaints about my attitude or work ethic, customer feedback was good. I liked this job and I didn't know this mistake was grounds for termination. I think it was two other reasons they weren't legally allowed to say, but that's besides the point. I knew that you could get fired for tiny mistakes at this job, but in the heat of the moment, I lost my cool and threw a girl that just got promoted under the bus for talking shit about her coworkers including management. All I said was was that this girl hated half her coworkers including the manager, and I walked out. One sentence, which was a mild exaggeration, but I was pissed off after being blindsided by the firing. I don't know why, but I feel like a bad person because I let them get to me. I didn't say anything negative about the manager myself, but the moment got to me.
How do I get over this? Should I feel like a bad person for burning a bridge, and throwing someone under the bus and hurting another's feelings in the process?
