Good times…
That shit sucks balls, big harry, sweaty balls.
I started some serious shit at work today, because I refused to take the heat for the lazy fuck I have to call a manager. I have 4 other people behind me, so I look pretty good right now. Some times being honest is the best approach.
Feels good man.
But anyway, start working on your resume.[/quote]
There’s been a couple of times where I was told to lie about a couple of minor, stupid, things… but, didn’t. It’s pretty sad when you get penalized for being honest. I agree with you, CB. Integrity is a precious commodity these days in the corporate world.
One the most consistant rumors that have been circulating, is that they will keep our department…for now. We will have the option to be “bought out” or sign an agreement to stay on, but cannot put in any transfers to go to another deparment for six months.
But, they will have the option to let you go within an eighteen month period and receive a severence pay that will depend on how long you’ve been with the company.
I’ll find out tomorrow, when they bring in one of the big guys (who will be escorted with security) to make a formal announcement at 3pm.
Should be interesting, to say the least…
I posted this before, but it sort of reflects the mood at the moment…
