(25F) Earlier this week (while being home with sick with the virus) my best friend’s mother let me know that the position she was currently in was hiring. Since I was sick, i had alerted my boss at my current job that i had to quarantine until my symptoms went away. My current never responded to the messages about me being sick.

More info about new job:She(friend’s mom)was only meant to be in the role for a few months and heard that I was doing a role similar to Hers. She reached out to see if I would be interested in interviewing. I sent in my resume and proceeded with two rounds of interviews such I believe went very well.

Up until yesterday, I was still an employee with the agency that I mentioned in. The first paragraph but I received an email stating that I had be terminated due to poor performance. Prior to receiving the termination letter, my boss had never had a conversation with me about my performance, they never had meetings, they never clearly defined their expectations, nor did I receive training. Aside from the those thing, I would say the workplace itself was toxic. I tried to call my boss to speak with them and no one answered. Seems like I was sent to voicemail twice.

Now with the new possible job offer in hand. I am nervous that the termination will reflect bad on me. The new position will make sure that I am trained on the thIngs I am unfamiliar with, so I am very confident that I will do better. I just want to make sure I chose the right references so I canmove forward.
