Today I had the evaluation of my test time (6 months) on the job.
I was informed they would let me go...This came as a surprise and very unexpectedly, specially because I kept on asking for feedback and it was never negative.
The main reason being that my partner is expecting our second child and everything what it my involved that can affect the company.
There's more to it, minor stuff that aren't even true but by law they don't even really need a reason for not keeping me.
Thing is I really enjoy the work, would love to stay in the company and wanted to ask for an increase of working hours.
I have bills to pay and this came with a month notice...
