I "wasn't developing into the role fast enough". It was about 3 months so I guess that's all it takes. It's very boring and typical reason to get fired. I also didn't really fit in with the people in my department, I guess I was too quiet.

One recent incident which was very hilarious was that we put up the live video from the French Muslim who killed that police commissioner. One of our managers was PISSED and made us replace the video with ten seconds of black because we couldn't take it down. It's kind of funny how everyone was scrambling and yelling at each other about it.

Assuming you're telling the truth:

-What was your job title/position and what department/desk where you assigned to?

-How'd you get a position at the New York Times? To get hired for what I assume is a highly-desired position you must've gone to a college with a highly-ranked/prestigious journalism program.

-Another journalism job or career change?

Go work for a rival news outlet, use your need for revenge as a motivator, so you can grow into a "role" of a hard-assed journalist. Oh, my bad. You are just going to feel sorry for yourself and buy into the fake propaganda that the NYTimes is "still" a great newspaper, particularly since it fired your "unwanted" and "unloved" ass.

-Associate Video Journalist, assigned to the Breaking News Video Desk

-I got the position by applying at indeed.com. This was a very entry-level position I'm assuming and it took about two months of interviews and background checks for me to finally start working. I didn't get the job because I was part of a journalism school (I never went to grad school or anything like that), only because I had actual professional experience with other news outlets for well over a year. That experience obviously didn't translate into the sacred New York Times.

-Jesus, I don't know. My life was uprooted today. I reached out to my old boss and he said he'd see what he could do but I'm not gonna get too optimistic, especially since I basically had to tell him I was being let go. If I don't get that job, then I don't know. I don't want to say "fuck journalism" but seriously. And grad school sounds like a terrible financial burden even though it probably would have saved me from this humiliation.

>>77375528
You're absolutely right. I want to work for Fox News or Breitbart or Gavin McInnes so bad after the leftist pills I've had to swallow for the last few months. But I don't know for sure if they didn't like me or if I just wasn't good enough. It most likely is the latter.

What did you do wrong? Were you slow? Could you have done more but instead browsed 4chan? Did you toe the liberal line or did you actually share your true opinions? You probably just weren't liberal enough and/or they wanted to have someone more fun around. Most jobs are more like high school cliques than meritocracies. Especially the white collar arena. No work actually NEEDs to get done basically ever. If they don't enjoy hanging out with you your production doesn't matter. If they do enjoy hanging out with you your production doesn't matter.

Nah this isn't true. Based on your posts ITT I can tell you have a very low self confidence, and oddly enough, a low self confidence value is correlated with high intelligence and competence. Its just a matter of focusing your energies. Go work for a right-leaning news outlet, youl see very fast that I'm right.

You sound competent man. Female bosses suck ass. She's keeping around women she likes and men she wants to fuck. Shes likely giving you 3 things at once so the people she likes can go home early.

Honestly, I don't know why or when she didn't like me, and she really didn't try to hide it that hard. Never said good morning, never "checked in" with me, gave me positive feedback three times total? I'm a very quiet person so maybe she didn't like me because I was quiet.

That's true. hell, I didn't even like this job that much. I like making videos but their system for getting them online was woefully inefficient and ate up way more time than necessary. It led to a lot of stress and fear. there was also the issue of accountability. occasionally i would take the brunt of other people's mistakes because I put my trust in the wrong people. I think this led to me being deemed untrustworthy. I never showed up late or called in sick or anything stupid like that though.

I got let go by my female boss back in January.

If I could go the rest of my life without working for a woman I'd be the happiest employee in the world.

Most of them have massive chips on their shoulder, especially if they're in a traditionally male-driven industry. My boss was easily the most hated person in the company. Her interactions consisted of sucking up to her superiors and putting down her subordinates.

>>77381977
Before anyone asks, yes, she was a Jew, as it happens.

I enjoy hating women more than I enjoy hating Jews, so take that with a grain of salt.

>>77381977
I've been kind of lucky I suppose with the female bosses I've had, but there definitely is a clear trend of them being absolute hell when they have the power and the leeway to get away with it.

Working for a guy is a much better bet. Guys are assholes, but they're also much more likely to be bros and try to help and improve a loser with potential.

mate, I've experienced rude people who think they are "all that"

if you are useless, they will keep you on, the main thing they hate is if you embarass them by being much better thanthem, this is the worst. managers WANT useless people, so they can not be blamed, any tall nail is a threat because it exposes them

why not write to their boss, and their boss, anf the fucking CEO of the company, and explaining their bullshit? it can't hurt

the worst thing to do when some asshole fucks you over is to just accept it like an omega, get some alpha anger, strike back

I did so much shit for my inferiors, for people who were fucking idiots, and I regret it now

hit her, hit her hard! spread her bullshit around

Hey OP, journalist-fag here.

You have two choices:
Put this on your resume as a "training position". Like you were there as part of your journalism school to work for 3 months to be 'in the biz'. Say you got a nominal salary, but it was just a consolation because they didn't think you should work for free. Use that to get into some other paper.

OR

Say you were fired because you posted a pro-Trump article on your facebook or you said something to defend him in an overly jewish argument. Write an article for Breitbart or Takismag about how you were drummed out of the office because you wouldn't admit to having white privileged or something. Lie and go over the top with it.

>>77381509
>she was asian
Oh fuck nigger you don't ever be sloppy around them.

What you do is you try and push responsibilities off to other people and kiss the boss' ass
>>
when i'm job hunting, if i can find out who i'm reporting to, i check to see if it's a man or a woman.
>>
>>77378288
You're too close to see that this is a blessing in disguise.

You'll be fine. You're better off not working there. I know it doesn't "feel" that way now, but just breathe.
>>
>>77371944
Kill yourself.

Painfully.
>>
>>77384738
These are decent suggestions for the resume, I think. Everybody has a different hiring style, but something like that would show me that the guy can figure out how to make the best out of a raw deal, and it'd make for a good topic of conversation for character judgment and intellectual ability if it should result in an interview.

>>77384890
And this is the truth. Gotta find a job where you fit, not just for the sake of having a job. This is where the Communists always fuck up when trying to implement their utopia.

I'm very tempted to do this (the first suggestion would work too except I'm not in Jschool) but wouldn't they call to confirm that this wasn't the case?

>>77385483
media fag here

Getting fired is no big, anon, it's par for the course. The higher up you go the quicker they'll boot you if you don't kiss ass just the right way. 3 out of 4 times it doesn't have anything to do with your job performance, rather it's a personal agenda/conflict/something like that. JMO.

I'd be tempted to put that on my resume and make up a story about it being a short term position. AFAIK they'll only verify your employment dates or else they'd risk being sued, but *maybe* that's different in NYC. Also,
>moar stories plox
>>
>>77385483
By the time it publishes, that would be the narrative. He who laughs last laughs the hardest, but he who yells first is the only one that gets heard.

But seriously do the first one. Say they offered a position but say they didn't offer enough money and you didn't like their standards lol
>>
>>77385483

that's a terrible idea, don't do that.

in journalism your reputation is everything, don't destroy it so early in the game, or at all.

>>77385999
Yeah maybe things are different in NYC. It does make sense what you say: the higher up you go the faster they boot you. This was the most responsibility I've had in my career and also the swiftest I've been terminated. I really could have been better at communicating with people I guess and being friendlier, etc. That's my failing, coming into work to work and not chit chat about Brooklyn and shit.

Stories? I'm not sure what you want to hear. I don't have any "dirt" so to speak that no one else knows: the paper being so obviously pro-Hillary to the point of hilarity. the video team and the print team didn't like each other that much. I was often left to my own devices every day, very rarely given an assignment or directive and usually having to seek out work to do. I hope I'll find something else. If getting fired is par for the course in media maybe I will leave it on. A three-month gap is really shitty.
