    Same. Why I accused the driver. Even though I want to blame the "truck."

    Shit, my co-worker (whom I’m still good friends with to this day…16 years) and I used to take out the maintenance truck around a busy shopping center and “accidentally” drop the snow plow :laugh:

    we used to take the ATV and golf carts and jump them :laugh:

    Burnouts on ice etc. I’m surprised we never got fired.

    Had to fire someone at my new job yesterday. She literally started the same day I did and within 3 weeks she was out the door. Within a span of 3 days she caused issues with her manager(me), the assistant controller, controller and CFO. Oh and she did absolutely no work. I'll be redoing everything she touched when I get in this morning.

    I'm so over accommodating employees who straight up have behavior/mental issues that make them unable and unsuitable to work in a professional office environment or literally want to collect a paycheck for doing no work.

    She was interviewed and hired before I started the job so I had no input on her. All of management who interviewed her personally walked into my office and apologized to me for hiring her. She was that bad. For a 49 year old grown ass adult to behave the way she did in a workplace just boggles my mind.

    Moving forward, anyone I hire at this place will have a 90 day probationary period where they can get cut loose for any reason.

    Sorry for the early morning rant. Between HR and actual work, I put in 14 hours yesterday and by this Friday I will have worked 12 days straight. Just needing to vent a little.

    the world needs more fine people like you.

    the fine art of firing someone quickly is lost.

    I can't take credit for the quick firing as I had support from my leadership. This person managed to alienate all of management and it was painfully obvious she wouldn't fit into the organization.

    Would you believe me if I told you I feel sorry for her. This could not have been the first time this happened at a job for her. I can spend all day working on financial modeling, posting entries, performing analysis, presenting etc...and I won't get tired. Give me 20 minutes of people drama and bullshit and my battery is drained.

    I got the day off today with 8 hours of pay.
    The company moved my load with an independent contractor, they use them during Christmas.
    Since our building is closed for the remodel for 2 years there is no extra work.
    Because I came to work and punched in, they contractually have to pay me for 8 hours.
    I was there for about 20 minutes...:thumbsup:

    Brother, some days, I just can't win that lottery jackpot soon enough...Still thankful for the job and I actually am enjoying the challenge of fixing and revamping a bunch of broken processes.

    That's too much drama. Gonna push in with an atom of advice. At least dig through the phone book to imagine which lawyer you'll hire when the lawsuit gets filed. You're in Commiefornia or I'd suggest a quick brush-up at the range, too. I hope neither of those unsolicited nuggets are remotely applicable.

    I can definitely relate. However, this is the typical feeling at my deaprtment after trying to fix things at my level that the uppers have pushed down that make no sense, and typically don't have the desired effect they are looking for...:frusty:

    Harder to find team players these days. People want to get “there” ASAP, and some will do whatever it takes. There are no good shortcuts in a job.
