I was fired from the restaurant I work at because a guest wrote an email to corporate saying I demanded more of a tip and told them to get out of the restaurant. Not true. I simply asked if everything was ok. Upon explaining myself I was told it didn't matter. Apparently asking if everything was ok is against some unspoken zero tolerance policy. (Worse, even then what happened, was the callous treatment by management when I because visibly emotionally upset.)

But regardless of that, I was fired because someone lied and was looking for a free ride next time he came to the restaurant. Am I entitled to anything? I don't think so, but now I can't pay my rent because I needed the shifts I was going to be getting this month.

Though the positive is that I didn't waste more time working hard and promoting/supporting a company (or maybe just a General Manager) who treat their employees like cattle. Completely inhuman, and replaceable.
