Nope, just got an email in my personal inbox and immediately cut off from everything
I’m usually early to work meetings, so this is usually how it feels till people drag themselves through the door 10 minutes later.
I once had that meeting, sort of
Only been with the boss and HR as a matter of performance once, I stayed for a shift I usually wasn’t on, and a manager I’d never met but only heard was a total hardass was having a shitty day (parent passed, but i had no idea, I’d never met this guy). He passes my workstation, first time meeting the dude, and chews me out for some computer shit. Totally fair - I was on reddit or something on a work computer and policy is not to, then a coworker across the floor does something humerous as manager is walking away. He files a report I laughed at him. I was under the impression I’d been written up for computer misuse the entire hr meeting, so thats what I defended and admitted to. In retrospect, fuck that guy and fuck that workplace, I got a 6 month probationary period for that. I served it no issues, but no wonder they have staffing issues and no wonder no one likes the managers.
If a department is dragging and gets better once someone is replaced, then you had an employee issue. If a department is dragging and you keep replacing employees, you’ve got a management/company issue.
Its a state facility. They don’t have turnover - they have churn. 200-300% churn annually. Good benefits though.
I rationed that in order for me to come back I’d need $70/hr to do that job again (100k annual after tax) and obviously they wont approve that lol
Happened to my partner, she worked from home 4 out of 5 days a week.
The company also had a lawyer there. All her accounts were locked by the end of the call, so she couldn’t exchange contacts with colleagues she liked. They sent a box and shipping label for her notebook, but never mentioned the two 27" Dell monitors and the height adjustable table.
Sucked at the time, but the gear they left us is pretty nice.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Among other things, I was in charge of on and offboarding and buying IT gear. HR basically told me if the employee won’t return the laptop we just have to suck it up. I may be misremembering, but legally speaking, we gave them the gear, no matter what paperwork they signed. And in no case would it pay to so much as begin legal action.
And no, we don’t want the monitors. Just not worse the hassle and shipping.
Twice.
Did you suspect it before the meeting started?
Most recent one was a little lol because I had gotten a ~15 minute heads up from another terminated coworker about what was going down – HR was late to mine, so there was around 10 minutes of empty small talk with the boss.
It’s when you completely dismantle their issues, and they carry on repeating said point. Time to go then
Your eyes and ears are deceiving you, the economy is in a new golden era commi.
I’ve been the boss…
Not by choice.
Flashed your penis to ladies again?
All I said are that Nazis were bad and that killing people is wrong
And here I was thinking I was just doing them a favor. I thought that they would enjoy seeing it.
“hey look, the news has gotten around, the head of HR and my line manager want to see my elephant impression too!”
Ohhhhhh Nooooooo … (POWWWWW)!!!
