<---- My turn to be bored at work

doofeey · 08-09-2006, 03:15 PM

When in battle and you fire a warning shot over the head of the enemy you are kinda telling them.. look fool, give up now.. straighten up and fly right, and we'll go home happy and smiling, else, im gonna blow your head off next time.

Welp, I fired these warning shots, a few times around this joint... Monday when I came back from my mini vacation, I fired two people and one quite before I could get to her. I had their replacements ready. Nasty? yes, it sure is. But its the nature of the beast (this industry).

Anyway... Now im bored.... so rahter than go looking for something wrong around here to get all excited about.... Im gonna see what creative little atrosity I can come up wtih to post on here

What do you do Doof?

doofeey · 08-09-2006, 06:56 PM

Car dealer

Iliana · 08-09-2006, 07:14 PM

It's just not a normal day if Doof hasn't fired at least one person lol. Doof did you have their replacements fire them this time or did you do it personally?

doofeey · 08-09-2006, 08:06 PM

7:45am. I walked in, wearing a black suite, shoes, tie, gold/black cufflinks, white shirt with black pin stripes (my grim reaper outfit) so people knew someone was getting fired.

8am. I called the managers meeting like every monday.

8:15am. Immediately following the meeting, I called individual managers to my office and we had a little chat... Pages went like this, "Iliana to Terrence's office, immediately, please..."

8:40am. The last two I paged were fired. One for costing me a loss of money and the other for insubordination.

8:50am. The last I called to my office and she didnt show up. So, after 5 minutes, I went to go get her... There was a post it note on her monitor that read, "Terrence: thank you for the opportunity you have given me. Learned much. I am sure I am about to be fired due to the _____ deal and it costing the co. $$$, so I quit"

Their replacements were sitting at IHop (about 3 minutes away) finishing the breakfast I had purchased for them and waiting to walking int he door at 9am like I had directed them to do.

Whooo. are we talking hundreds of thousands of dollars lost?

doofeey · 08-09-2006, 09:21 PM

No. But if you cost the company more than $100 in one shot in my book, its time for you to either get gone or get right.

Manny · 08-09-2006, 10:28 PM

fair enough!
/note to self. go work for doofeey.

LOL see doof i couldnt work for you cause if ytou had to sell cars I would suck at it.. A family of 6 come in and say i need a car that could hold us for real cheap id end up giving them a van with the works and telling them my boss doofy said just take it...lol and the good thing is you can write it off on taxes.... see good deal..loolol

doofeey · 08-11-2006, 11:41 AM

Some of the best people in the business are the ones that are religious and born again...

That family of 6, would be leaving ina used minivan that you would make a comission of about $800 on.... that way, i get paid, you get paid, no need for a right off and the customer would love you and bringyou plenty of customer to buy form you and therefore put more money in your pocket.

Ricca, you do well at it... wit my help giving you a taste for the business... after a month, you'd never want to leave it.
