This is Why You Got Fired From Your Job

By Sera Kazungu

Do you know that terrible feeling that comes to you when you have just been fired from your job? Terrible isn’t it?

In as much as it is something neither you nor your employer like, you will be fired on account of you lacking in one way or the other in your job.

Whether you believe it or not, getting fired is something that is totally avoidable.

Here are some of the reasons that might have made you lose your previous job

Why You Were Fired From Your Job

1. You were too comfortable
You were simply too comfortable in your job. The work was just too easy for you and you failed to concentrate on the performance of your work. You may also have convinced yourself that you were indispensable and started under performing.

2. You brought your personal problems to the office.
Everyone one has problems on a day to day basis. You may have forgotten where to draw the line between personal and business. For example,you may be so depressed that your mood rubs off on people at the workplace. This is a recipe for losing your job.

3. You were ever absent from the office
Are you that kind of a person who always has to be absent? Today you are going to a funeral, tomorrow a wedding, the next a house warming etc. Get your act together. This is an almost definite reason to lose your job, especially when you do not communicate your absence beforehand.

4. You complained about your boss/company on social media

Be very careful about what you post on social media. You like to vent about your job and employer on social sites,assuming that they are either too busy or too clueless to be on Facebook or Twitter. News flash: 90% of employers are on social media.

5. You had an attitude problem
Your bad attitude towards your job,boss and colleagues is also a contributing factor towards losing a job. Attitude is how to do and perceive things. For example, you could always be making faces after the employer tells you to do something.

Take a reality check, if these best describe you; it is time for a change. Wishing you the best at your new job.
