Had To Let Someone Go Today

For starters, you're probably lying about being the boss of anyone. I don't think they'd promote you to graveyard team leader at Whataburger.
-
Can we make a $10,000 bet that I can prove that I have direct reports? I can have someone put that money in escrow.
-
Nobody wants to talk about letting people go. It sucks, even if the person was making everyone around them miserable.
And anyone who is completely unprofessional as he claims wouldn't be held onto until that Friday. It would be same day door.ass.out
He's ~25 year old tech support.

@Swoopthemoon doesn’t count.
-
It doesn't suck when the person deserves it. I want to get the word out and get this cautionary tale out there to people who think they're free to do this on companies' resources and think its ok. Its not.
Unfortunately, you can't fire someone on the spot. It takes some time to document the steps I took to correct the behavior, how those steps were ignored, culminating in a time that HR told me I was clear to relieve that employee of the burden of doing their jobs.
-
I see Spaz is getting the attention he so needs.
-
Ah so HR made the decision. Nice work Serpico.
-
And again, Doog Bot misses the point. The crime isn't posting on a random website your political views. No one at work is going to see that. The crime is posting your viewpoints on internal company channels and distracting yourself and multiple people from doing their jobs.
Guys….I dont come on this board to lecture you on being dumb….I just can't help it when you post dumb statements.
-
So have you found the "everywhere" I've been posting on besides the Tug yet? Just admit you lied to everyone and pulled that "fact" out of your ass!!!!

'Body is 17228 characters too long"

and lol at Buck's bet offer

Seriously Bill, I have a running list where someone accused me of lying and I made them look like an asshole. Ask Pawz and Doog Bot, they learned. There's no similar list against me. I just want people to be held accountable for the obvious BS they're peddling. You're just the latest on the list trying to spread something as fact that isnt.
-
You aren't a leader of any kind of that's your opinion on it.
It doesn't take a week to push it through HR if someone is really bad. It only is if it's purely a performance thing.
-
You lie on here as much as the Dazzler.
-
And yet you can't name a single thing about what I "lied about". Boy, thats strange! I can name a shitton of things you guys lied about and reference them.

Why the hell is Bob_C calling SwoopTheMoon back to this post?? Bob, I called MSFT to reach $440-why don't you put money where you mouth is and put some skrilla in escrow? Oh you won't-your just here to troll.
-
Didn't you just post Commie-la is up in the polls? I can only imagine your hot political talk around the robot package pickers.
-
I’m sorry….is Hardcore Husky the communication platform for my work? What don’t you understand about this?
-
Folks….please don’t let Haie handle your tech solutions or services. The guy can’t navigate the internet for shissakes.

I just judge the stimuli and problems that are put in front of me at a medium sized company. No need to Google anything here.
Pretentious support tech is a pretentious support tech.
-
Stop the angry. There is still breathable air down there. You drag your odd personality and look at me shit everywhere. I'm certain of that stubby. Seen your kind a million times.
-
The user name didn’t hyperlink in his post, Spaz. Your imaginary friend wasn’t notified which yet again reinforces it is one of your sock puppets.
-
you’ve never hired or fired anyone.
you’re a salaried grunt for a mega corp trying to troll or impress strangers on the internet.
it’s a painfully awkward social exercise in your part and I have no idea what you draw from this but it’s mildly entertaining nonetheless
-
Imagine coming on here to brag about firing someone as a pretext to make a political statement and brag about [likely] made-up job status. Imagine feeling the need to do that.
One thing about being a humble coug: we? know who we? are and are ok with it.
And to think you took my spot at UW. Fucking admissions people.
-
letting an employee go is whether it’s for cause or due to restructuring just isn’t something you brag/joke about with anyone.
Unless we’re talking about a HS job, you’re making light of a life event for the person in question and boasting about “swinging the axe” is such a terrible look that only someone who’s never been involved in the actual process of firing an employee would think that it’s something to boast about.
This is loser shit. -

Guys no matter how you wish it isn’t true, it’s very true. I bring it up because there’s a certain population that is struggling with this concept….your hardcore political views is a distraction and has zero business in the workplace. You can and will get fired when you refuse to acknowledge this fact.
I gave this dude multiple chances. He refused to believe me. Bet he believes me now.
