Uh Oh......
 

Guess what? I am unemployed. My boss was nice enough to call me at 11:30 this morning to tell me that he had to let me go. Oh well, I would like to say it was good while it lasted but it wasn't.
I am not upset, just a little surprised because it was done over the phone.

That sucks ass dude...

sure it wasn't a prank call?

ah ha ha..

East Carolina Motor Speedway. I was the Marketing Director and the Track Announcer.

oh...

Uh...not really, but thanks anyways.

lol...

i like that song

Over the phone suck's.He should have been a man about it and told you straight up.

:stupid:

Well, I guess that about tops the cake on that job ey Mike? What a douche to do something like that over the phone. Back to the trucks now? Or do you have some lines elsewhere?

Working on a few things at the moment. Trucks is a last resort.

that was chicken **** to call you on the phone and do that. Makes me think of the commercial where his boss calls him and lays him off as well then the guy asks where he is calling from and his boss says the big conference. His boss is standing at the podium and the guy comes from the right hand side of the screen and just lays him out:D

yea..thats awesome!!!

good luck to ya mike..just dont sell the stang!!!!:poke: hehe...

sorry to hear that man but who knows you might even find an even better job. :D

lol...

out of all the times that I've gotten fired... I've gotten better jobs... lol

I am 34 and have been working since I was 15. This is only the 2nd job I have gotten fired from. The only other one was Napa Auto Parts when I was 17. :censored:

screw'em mike. If he is not professional or man enough to do it to your face whatever. Did they give you reason? Only if you want to share of course.

His only reason he claims is that we didn't "click".

lol...

6 flags great adventure $6 /hr fired
bike shop $7.00 /hr fired
sunoco $7.50 /hr fired
bil jim construction rates vary (min of $100 a day) still there

lol... I know the guy who owns bil jim, i hunt with him... nicest guy on the earth... so i won't get fired from there... and i don't goof around like i did all my others... lol

ask him if you CLICK CLICK:devil2:

can you even be fired for that? your work ethics must be an issue unless you call him names and stuff at work.

file a lawsuit.
lol

lol no the boss can fire you for any reason he wants really...but he means things were probably not working out

sorry mcm

Nothing to be sorry about, I am not sad nor bitter. Things happen for a reason and this happened for a good reason.

untrue, there has to be a legitimate reason why one is being fired. and if he doesnt like the way you combed your hair that morning... well thats not a legit excuse to have you fired.

True, but he could always say it was due to poor job performance even if it was my hair that disturbed him.

your hair kinda disturbed me, so I brought that up.

lmao... mike has disturbing hair...

better get it cut or yer wife might file for a divorce

Well that blows. Tell ya what, thats what ya get for using the place as a distribution center for some gool ol columbian blow.

As for people saying he shoulda told you in person... Why?,... why waste the gas to drive all the way to work just to get sent home? Aint like doing it in person is gonna make anything better. I'd be pissed if i drove 20 min to work just to get canned, i'd probably rob the muther****er for some gas money. I'd rather get a call instead so i could go back to bed or his the bar.

As for the reason he let you go, basically too bad. Just about every idiot on these boards is gonna tell you to sue him or call the BBB or whatever. You certainly can go that avenue, but honestly it would be a waste of time because nothing would happen from it except you would rack up a ****load of lawyers bills and still be unemployed. Some fights just aint worth it.

i dunno where yer at, colorado is a "no fault" state, meaning they can fire you on a whim just for the hell of it. Funny thing is that only happens on the lower end of the career spectrum. As in delivery drivers, fast food, kmark floor clerk, etc etc. When somone gets fired from my jobn they still go through the process of putting the person on a corrective action plan, training plan, etc etc, plus they have to log every time the person was late, and if they are black or hispanic then forget ever firing them. it wont happen. Honestly, i think it would be better if bosses could just **** can you if they felt like it. Do yer job and you wont have anything to worry about, might find jobs being a lot easier without the barnicals sucking the side of the ship.

Thats like on the movie "Fridays" when Ice Cube got fired on his day off. :icon_bs: Something better comes your way.
