Why were you late? Was it your 1st time? What kind of work did you do?

In some jobs they cannot have you late, with the new way people are scheduling some need you there right on time.

Why? Because you were late. Other than that, you don't provide enough information to respond in a more meaningful way..

Maybe there were other reasons for dismissal that were not disclosed to the OP? Being late for work is a reason that is objective, easy to document and easy for management to defend.

Is this the first time you were late? Have there been other issues besides this one?
