He just really pissed me off...

I got a guy fired today, and don't feel one bit bad about it.

He's a pain in the ass, and has been a thorn in my side for nearly a year now. He is (was) the receiving clerk at our company and treated the truck drivers like sub-standard human beings. He made several of them wait six-and-a-half hours yesterday before he'd load their trucks.

That was the straw that broke the camel's back.

I went out to that receiving dock this morning and told him to get his lazy, hair ass up outta that chair, and unload the truck that was sitting just outside the bay door. He called me a BEE-OTCH in that stupid gansta-rap jargon, and I just let 'im have it with both barrels.

I called the so-and-so everything but a milkcow, told him to unload that f'ing truck, called him a saw off SOB, and told him that if it's the last thing I do today, I'll make sure he's fired.

And, he is fired.

It's been a rough day. Someone hug me.

Bullwinkle - here's your hug (hug hug). I don't know what it is you do for a living, but I work for a trucking company. All our drivers are Owner-Operators (self-employed), and I hear a lot from them about how hard it is to get their trucks unloaded sometimes. I'm glad you did what you did. One of my biggest pet peeves is someone who refuses to work for a living, as if the company owes them money just for showing up !! Well, I say GOOD FOR U!!!! You did the right thing.

{{{hugs}}}

Ohhhh no (((((HUUUGGGGSSSSS))))))

Huggggs! You did the right thing! Now that you are taking care of yourself, isn't it easier to stand up to other people?
