You're this worked up from just APPLYING to a job? Not even being smart, but you may have a bigger issue to tackle. Sounds like you need to deal with your anxiety first.

Moving into hopefully my last apartment tomorrow, gotta wait another 2 weeks beforey new sofa and recliner are delivered. Hope to get a new TV for my living room and new bedroom set next month, giving all my old furniture to Goodwill accept my dining room table
I have a bad feeling I'm about to get fired from work this week. I've been with the company for about 2 1/2 years, and I think I'm going to get screwed over for helping somebody out.
If that is the case write up your notice to leave but instead of giving 2 weeks make it effectively. Whenever you are called into your supervisor office or who tells you of termination slap the note on the desk before you are fired
It's a straight commission job, and I had this customer that was in a tough situation. I told her I would pay off a small balance she needed to pay off as well as cover all of her taxes on a transaction. She was eligible to receive a rebate card, but we agreed that I would receive it as I was paying all of the cash up front for her, and what I paid for outweighed what the gift card would be. She is now complaining to another employee of mine as well as one of our higher ups that I was supposed to five her the rebate card as well, and that I never covered her taxes or anything the day I made the sale. I went out of my way to help someone that looked like they needed it, as well as trying to build a solid client base, and I'm about to get screwed over.
It was about $150 in cash that I paid THAT day for her as well. I helped her out big time and I might get screwed now. I need to stop helping people out.
its ok to help others but you have to know when to do so and when not to, to be honest based on the little info I have on what you told me I wouldnt do it, but maybe you wont get fired and might only get written up or a suspension
.If you quit you won't get unemployment so don't do what was suggested. If it's a first offense, normally you get a write up, not straight up fired. Start looking for a new job ASAP if you feel this way and keep chill until your manager talks to you.
Ummm I take that back, yeah you're probably going to get fired for that. NEVER use your personal funds just to get a sale. Also making side deals is typically against policy.
With that said, being out of work isn't a big deal. Start looking for other jobs, try to get unemployment and you could always deliver pizza or drive uber if you have a car to hold you over.

It was a tough situation to deal with because she was in a very tough situation, so I did that, knowing that you're not supposed to do that. If I do end up losing my job (which I don't think I will now because I just spoke to one of our higher ups), it is what it is and I will take a month or two off. The upcoming months are busy seasons where you can definitely make about 7-8k/month in commission, and that's before any bonuses get paid to me due to my position within the company. If it happens it happens, but the phone call I just had made me feel better about it. They were under the impression that I was taking EVERY customer's rebate that the customer did not know they could get and was sending it to my house.
. That would be thousands of dollars a month and it would have drawn a major red flag.Good!! I'm glad it worked out so far. But still give yourself some options and look at other companies just in case.It was a tough situation to deal with because she was in a very tough situation, so I did that, knowing that you're not supposed to do that.

And don't fall for any more sad stories. You can be sympathetic without risking your own livelihood. She could have been lying for all you know.
