I just fired one of my best friends
No kidding. Totally sucks. I have tried everything I could to keep her with our company but the account she was working on just went away. They
were bought and everything has changed.
Two parts that really sucked is that I had to do it over the phone and second, she just lost it when I told her.
She is one of my favorite people I have ever known. Just totally sucks.
One thing that I learned and stuck with, is that I was honest the whole time. Didn't mislead her and I let her know how good of a person she is and I
am going to help her find a new job.
What a bummer

Have you ever noticed how crayons are a lot like M&M's? All the colors tend to taste the same.

The very existence of flamethrowers proves that sometime, somewhere, someone said to themselves, ?You know, I want to set those people over there on
fire, but I?m just not close enough to get the job done.? George Carlin

my mom has a couple friends that report to her and she's had to talk about their shitty performance with them before. She also had to tell one of
them that she stunk real fuckin bad and needed to take showers more often and clean her clothes. She said it really sucked balls.

Yeah, that shit is tough. My friend I mentioned above worked in another office then me and we got to be real close the past few years.
It is hard because I really like the people I manage. They are all good people. It is hard to draw the line of Manager vs. Freind. The bottom line
is a healthy respect for each other.

i fired this dude once and he TOTALLY started freaking out. he started yelling and screaming "oh god, no!! why??!!" and slammed his head down on
the conference table. no shit.
If I fail math, there goes my chance at a good job and a happy life full of hard work.

Firing people must suck, BUT quiting is one of the funnest things in the world if you do it right.
Well, its this place where nobody works, and the pigs don\'t give you any shit. Everyone smokes weed and gets drunk all day. Its a place where
cunts like me and you can truly take it easy and relax. Know what I mean?

On my last day working for McDonalds my boss came out to the parking lot to say goodbye to me. I was blasting "Take This Job and Shove It" by Dead
Kennedy's as I drove away.

I had to can friends of mine twice. Didn't feel bad about either one.
One guy used to fight with his gf on the phone all the time and I warned him about it, the whole damn office could hear it. Combine that with all the
mistakes he would make doing data entry into our database and he really did it to himself.
The other guy lived 2 blocks away from the store yet showed up an average of an hour and a half late every day. He would open the store on Sundays 2
hours late. I was in a band with him at the time too and I didn't give a shit, he HAD to go. He took it well, we even ended up making a skit out of it
for the record we recorded but never ended up putting out.
