Kevin....I like you....you are one of the best people on here! That being said I liked your story......but I most certainly would have given him a big "sorry.....can't help you out with that"......and carried on! Were you still under their employ at the time of the July 4 incident? It is a good story though....you are a better man than me I guess.....I would have let them flounder and enjoyed the fact that they are the idiots that were letting me go so let them eat worms!

Ah..Grasshopper, there is so much in life you have learned and so much you have not yet to learn.

It's like the differnece between making love and just screwing someones brains out.:)

Larry, I still am employed with them through the end of this month....believe me, If I wasn't and he called he would have gotten the big Sorry...trust me

You all have to read Dear Abby from a day or two ago. It was a letter to a boss from someone who had been let go. It was priceless.

Larry, would you sh!t on your bosses head?:hihi:

I think there are certain jobs and industries where boorish behavior might not cause you problems when looking for a new job. In TDF's industry, a bad reference can be the difference between a nice, well paying job to support your family, or working nites stocking shelves at a big box retailer for $10 an hour. If it came down to telling my boss to shove it or supporting my family, I'd choose supporting my family every time.

Given the right circumstance I'd drop heat on my bosses dome.

Have and would again! There are no loyalties anymore! I would have dropped a big ole' tird right on top of his head! You work hard for people and this is what you get....shiiiiiiit on!!!

fishbones 07-15-2008 07:03 PM

Larry, don't you work for yourself?

BigFish 07-15-2008 07:07 PM

Exactly! Why do you think that is?:rollem:

fishbones 07-15-2008 07:31 PM

So what you're saying is, you'd take a big steamer on your own head?

Larry, it's "turd" not "tird". And you need to buy a skiff, you'll have a better attitude!
