Now I get to stress. Dangit! What is crazy is the letter said I wasn't providing "quality feedback" (for opinions right?) but I hadn't gotten any bad emails in OVER 2 months. The last time I got them it was for side by sides and I quit doing side by sides and have been doing ONLY other tasks for the passed two months, then I get this email out of the blue. So...beware.

I am so sorry! That's just awful - I know, under the contract they can terminate at will, but "can" and "should" are two different things. It's just not right to terminate someone without any warning, especially when they claim it's for cause but gave you no feedback or opportunity to correct whatever the problem was.How on earth can you be held responsible for something when you don't even know there's a problem!? That's just wrong. I do hope you'll find something else very soon. Thanks for the warning - I think we'd all better take heed ....

I'm so sorry to hear that.
I was w/WFL for a year. I've now been w/LF for a week. I know in the year I was a WFL rater I saw many, many posts like yours of people being let go before their contract was up. There doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason to it. I wonder if it comes from Google.
Good luck to you.

I'm so sorry that they let you go. Just to let you know that I had the same experience with LB (I was in the permanent position with them). My statistics were all good and then out of the blue they fired me because my work "wasn't up to their standards." I asked them what part of my work they were not satisfied with and they said they couldn't tell me. Hello? It's my work, you can't even tell me what it is I was doing wrong? Anyways, I guess there is a trend here.

The same exact thing happened to me 2 weeks ago. It was a complete shock!! That's okay though - I didn't like it much anyway and I have another job that I can do but I do have to work more doing this job to make the same amount of money. Plus I'm getting into something else so....it'll work out in the end.

Well, LF workers BEWARE. They are firing people right now.
It's stupid because I got fired not long after they renewed my contract. Aggravating.

That's random.
