Joe brought that up in his "exit interview". From what he's said, he really gave them an ear-full, in a calm, collected, intelligent manner. So much so, that his boss was on the verge of tears. He told them they were making amistake because he was one of the best reps they had. Boss said, "You are. You always have been." He looked right at her and said, "Yeah, well it's too bad performance doesn't count, isn't it?"
NICE! Go Joe for not making a scene, yet also not going quietly. Beautifully handled.
He actually brought all of us flowers, but he gave me a big hug and said, "It' sbeen a rough week, and Joe's losing his job is a shit thing to happen. I'm so sorry."
Awwwww! I love your boss right now. We need to find Joe a job with a boss like that.
Our friend Daniel? The editor at G4 that got him the gig doing that show?
He's gonna rec Joe for an Asst Editor job at G4.
We need to find Joe a job with a boss like that.
I'm not buying him flowers.
No, you'll buy ME flowers.
WOOT!!!
See, this is what I'm talking about. Sometimes things happen for a reason, and I'm hoping like hell that this is one of those times.
Me, too K. Me, too.
And naturally all of this happens right when the effing Communisits invade.
Sigh.
There's a lot to be thankful for:
We're not destitute.
The health insurance is through me, not him.
We have a great big circle of support and love to hold us up.
Oh, and Drew, I'll just be happy if you buy
me
flowers.
IJS.
t runs away
He's gonna rec Joe for an Asst Editor job at G4.
This is fantastic!
MM's ex-bosses were idiots, if they let someone like him go because he missed three days taking care of his sick kid.
There's a lot to be thankful for:
And that baby. Lordy, that baby.
