My daughter was hired at a Tim Hortons location at Glenwoods and Ravenshoe in Keswick, Ontario. She was given no interview and was called to do online training with her password given to her. She was given hours of 10-2 on the weekend of July 24 and 25th. Other shifts commencing shortly there after. The supervisor gave ongoing feedback in regards to what my daughter needed to change, such as speaking up so customers could hear her and try to get faster. On August 12, the supervisor called my daughter to see if she could cover a shift but we were away on vacation and my daughter mentioned that she would be home to do her shifts on the weekend. My daughter arrived for her shift of 10-2 on Saturday August 14 and was told to see supervisor in the office. My daughter was told that they would be moving forward without her and that she needed to find something that wasn't fast paced and that she needed to get her anxiety and mental health in order. I am angry as a parent of a 16 year old girl who has no experience working and this was her first experience with employment as it was her first job. Anxiety or not that should not have been mentioned and I wanted you to know that the way this situation was not ok. I am hoping that something will be done to prevent this happening to someone else's child in the future. My daughter was devastated and didn't see it coming. Thank you for your time and consideration in this matter. Sincerely, Julie Maloney
Desired outcome: Prevention of anxiety and mental health used in firing.
