I was fired today. I'm heartbroken

I was employed at a local dog daycare and all things considered (spotty management and miscommunications) i really loved it.

Today, I was brought in and my position was terminated unexpectedly. They said it was due to my "lack of skills and improvement." Which, I feel is bullshit. I asked for a specific situation in which I had failed to display adequate skills and again, it was total bullshit.

I already have some trauma from job insecurity and I'm just devastated. I know I'll figure it out from here but I'm scared. I do not have a car and rely on ubers to get to and from work. This job was just close enough that I could actually sustainably afford the cost.

I had been saying for the last month or so that I was feeling like an "outsider" in this job. I'm autistic and already struggle with socialization. I felt like they kept me at a distance and that they didn't trust me. I was given no notice of any issues that could be led to firing, I was not put on a PIP, or written up in the last 3 or so months. I don't understand why this happened.

I'm going to miss all my furry friends I made. I get so emotionally involved with the animals and really begin to love them. I've been crying all day. This sucks.
