Dear Mr. [Executive]: I am writing to you in regards to a position I fulfilled with dignity and pride with your company. I was hired on Feb 19. 2007. I worked in the Office under the management of [Ms. X]. I sold a little over $11,000.00 in the last month of May and over $4,500 in the month of April with your company. When I was with your company, I always had the customers interests, as well as, the companies at heart. I want to let you know, even though it probably won't make a difference in getting my job back, but it may make a difference for the next person. About a month ago, Miss [X] pulled me in the office, and questioned me on here say that another co-worker told her, that I didn't know what the forward button was on the computer. I told her, this was not true, then said that I was slower than others. I asked her what she meant by that, and she didn't reply, she just looked at me. I even gave her the benefit of the doubt and asked her again the next day and she still never gave me a straight answer. She made me feel discriminated, like I was incompetent. I hold a B.A. degree from [small, private, accredited, liberal arts university in downtown Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania] in Journalism and Mass Communications. My work record is impeccable from every job I ever worked at. I am appalled to be asked If I AM SLOW. On June 8, 2007, I was told by [Ms. X] that my three month evaluation was due and I went in the room with her and [local HR Rep] to find out I don't have a job, which was told by [local HR Rep] and not [X]. I was devastated,. I then left and called [Director of office] and I was told I was let go due to performance base and did not get any specifications on what was meant by performance based. If almost $15,000.00. in 3 months is poor performance, I 'd like to see what her definition of good performance is, and I'd also still like to know what she meant by insinuating I was slow. Last month I did $4,500. and this month I over doubled by selling $11,000. Just imagine what I could have done if I wasn't let go. I definitely was an asset to your company, and was told that by customers, which showed in my chat transcript ratings and over the phone when customers wanted me to be their Account Manager. I also spoke to one of my Account Managers that I supported [name withheld], who said that she wrote [Ms. X] a nice letter saying how wonderful of a job that I was doing and that I would make an excellent Account Manager in the future. My fellow employees are shocked and supprised as well because they thought I was doing a great job and they are wondering if their jobs are next. [name withheld] is an excellent company, and has a great reputation, and will truly miss working for your company. But with employees like [Ms. X] that are bias and personally opinionated, that throw discriminate remarks is bad business practice. Eventually, it will catch up with her, whether anything is done about her behavior or not, if she feels she can't be disciplined. I just wanted to let you know that maybe she should be evaluated. With my prior work history and education I will get another job. In closing, I thank you for your time and hope to hear what Kate's version is. I'm sure she will sugar coat it. If you should need to contact me you can call me at xxx-xxx-xxxx. Thank You, ex-employee
