From my experiences (mostly in the medical field) this is very common.

I've never had a "boss" from bottom to top, that wasn't a complete dumbass and POS.

The surest way to not have to deal with that is to be your own boss. ;)

Not yet. Gonna move in with the parents for a year or two and I should have enough to buy a house with cash and retire and continue trading, and it will build exponentially. If all goes well...

20 minute phone call. I recorded it, and plan to post it on the internet after i edit out names.

This is f*cking bullsh*t people have been saying that they heard me make threats to shoot up the place / blow up the place / kill myself / etc....

It's clearly NOT true, I'm non violent, yes I like martial arts and I get pissed off at times but I've never shot a gun in my life and I would never do such a thing.


I dont know what the **** is going on. I can't believe this f*cking bullsh*t. People must really hate me.


It seems like the call went well though, I was prepared for it and awake, etc. Usually I'm tired at the hour they called but today I had shitloads of anxiety that kept me going strong.


Heart palpitations are f*cking awesome....




UGH.

I have no f*cking idea what the hell is going on.

It's an ongoing investigation. That's all I know.

I wrote up notes to prepare for the call and I was gonna talk about issues on why I didnt like the company, but instead I felt like I was being interrogated.


I'm f*cking pissed.

So you got fired out of nowhere for allegedly making threats you didn't know about? How many people would have had to report this for you to actually be fired from it? A single person? How large is the company you worked for?

So why would multiple people go to upper management with claims that you were making threats against the company and yourself? What did you do to them?

This is vaguely reminiscent of one of my employees when I was a manager for an outsourcer for Gateway computer tech support....I'll see if I can dig up the documentation (Yes, I still have all my employees write ups...even though it's been 10 years.)

That would be very interesting to read.

Apparently I wasn't fired, only suspended.

However, I told them if I wasn't gonna be fired, I quit.

Why wouldn't you do this on your own terms, after finding some other sort of employment? Finding a job without a job is always difficult, and much more so in this economy. Additionally, given that you quit, there is exactly a zero percent chance that you'll be able to collect unemployment.

That's okay I'll make enough money from trading it'll just take a couple of months to get off the ground...if not, I'll get a part time job and it'll only take a few more [months].

I don't even want to file unemployment because I know they'll try to fight it and bring up more of this retarded issues.





The reason I didn't look for another J.O.B. is because I'm tired of being a little b*tch slave to a corporation with their collective heads up their asses. I'm sick of having supervisors breathing down my neck with 3+ cameras on me at any one time. I'm sick of dealing with stupid people and stupid bullsh*t.



So now I work for myself. From now on.

as some of you may remember I used to work 11p-7a at a hotel (I used to come into irc after this shift a lot) I used to say it wasn't officially tomorrow until I've slept. this was the same job I used to pull 8 hr turnarounds with.

So, they must not have believed the allegations that you were going to shoot the place up, if they suspended you. What was their reason for suspending you?

the accusations were the reason they suspended me.


honestly it just feels like they wanted to find some reason to get rid of me, so they said i was fired pending an investigation cause they didnt know what the hell reason they wanted to get rid of me for.

but then the police were there so i dunno..

for this specific person i had already gone out of my way that he can just say thursday as he means thursday and not have to try to guess if I mean friday morning is a part of thursday night (which I don't, because friday morning is friday morning). He was in the military and I try to be as straightforward as possible with time, I don't use the 24 hour clock, but I do speak very clearly and consistently when I talk about time. For instance...11pm thursday night. 3 hours later would be 2am friday morning.

Nev, I started a separate thread for the employee file that I was telling you about....he couldn't seem to put two and two together....he had done SO many things that he deserved to be fired over, but he slipped by. When they finally decided they had to fire him, they had to have documentation, so yes, they were looking for reasons to fire him....he hung himself (figuratively), but all he could see was the "bogus" things that he was getting suspended for and thought everyone was out to get him for no reason at all and started blaming everyone else.
