The twin gets fired...

[kybearfuzz]

I just got off the phone with the sis and the twin. They're out in a group at Applebee's in Richmond having a drinking outing because the twin got fired today from his new job.

It's mixed feelings. The twin didn't like the job, he said that management there was uncoordinated and made weird decisions when I was home last week. His archnemesis out there was the head of customer service, some fat bitch who was angry that he had gotten the job, because she wanted it. From day one, she told management that he was leaving early, taking days off when he wanted to, and was telling people that he made far more money than he did. The boss even showed up at 1:30 AM to make sure he was there one night.. and he was! What a surprise! The boss even told him that he needed to watch his back because she didn't like him and why.

Apparently, since he was still in his probationary phase, they could fire him. He did tell them during his close out meeting that he felt the cow was running the joint and the next person they hire for the job would likely have the same issues with her. I have no idea if they listened. He's hardly devestated, but no one likes to be fired.

I'm hacked because this lying blimp, who could never walk the distance and work the hours that the twin has, got away with this. I'm tempted to tell the twin to sue for slander, but he'll be happier away from there and the business is getting exactly what they deserve. Still, I hope the heifer chokes on her next twinkie.

That totally sucks. I think every office has some fat bitch or asshole that does stuff like that.

I was passed over for a promotion to the help desk manager this year. It was vacant for 3 months, and I finally said fuck it and applied. I was already functioning, to some degree, as the help desk manager...running all kinds of reports and monitoring and coding the help desk software.

But they wanted someone older and more 'experienced'. I don't think I am that young, but guess they didn't think I could handle it. The woman they hired is twice my age, but about half as smart.

So now I am in a position to do the same to this new woman the same that the bitch did to your twin. I hold back though, and try to be as helpful as I can.

Sorry to ramble on...that really doesn't have too much to do with what happened to your twin...other than the fact that corporate politics suck totally. :(

Well, I can understand being angry with the boss if he gave the job to someone else, but I think this bitch's anger is misplaced in going after my brother. Like he had anything to do with her not getting the job because he was more qualified.

It's good that you're not retalitory. Rise above it.

LOL.. my evil side giggles with glee... totally out of character for me, but I'm the protective brother here.

That sucks but if he's happier not being around that situation I guess it's for the better.

The twin called today to tell me he got fired. Apparently he was so drunk last night that he didn't realized he'd already called me. The upside is that he's collecting unemployment and getting about $2400 a month, which doesn't suck at all!
