Woman Fired on First Day After Disclosing Inability to Work Extended Shifts

Analysed 23 Sept 2026·2 sources analysed·India·Social
Woman Fired on First Day After Disclosing Inability to Work Extended ShiftsPreviousNext

A woman shared on Reddit that she was fired on her first day after honestly disclosing her inability to work newly imposed 12-hour shifts, six to seven days a week. She had accepted the job based on an advertised 8-to-5 schedule, which suited her existing evening hospital job. Management later announced extended hours and asked for accommodation requests, but those who spoke up, including her, were removed from the assignment by the staffing agency before lunch.
