Yep! 4:30 today I've just been sacked by my company, barely 1 month into the job and I've been informed that as of today I'm no longer required..AAAARRRRRRGGGHH!
I left a reliable job in October after being offered more money, some decent commission etc etc from a small two bit company. As a good salesman with a strong reputation, I thought that this would be a chance to turn things around and go some where,make my mark as it were, after working for all the big companies and dealing with Tw4ts and Richard Craniums that don't recognize who the customer is, or who pays the bills at the end of the day...this would have been slightly different WRONG!!!!!
I had alarm bells ring after the interview when he said that the other guy didn't do the job for him and he expected orders immediately!! But I thought, on his word (and later contract), he was giving twelve months (confirmed) to turn the area around and bring some profit back into the company. Two weeks into the job and I'd had my first nut kicking session, there's no orders appearing on the horizion, he doesn't know whats going on in the area etc. I explained my reports, projects and level of enquiries had increased, but in his eyes I hadn't brought any orders in, (bare in mind this was only after 2weeks!!) On carrying out the job it turns out that "Customer" hasn't seen someone for over two years,"The Database" was out of date and people had either left or moved on.. and yet they were still HIS contacts.. and that some thought my employers were w4nkers by their overbearing attitude.
Alarm bells started to ring LOUDER as payday approached and there was no signs of a BACS transfer into the accout, worse still I find that he preferss to pay everyone by cheque
Well its finally happened the call today, was to blame the employee never the employer on the lack of orders coming in.. Typical...
Well, Feck! Meldrew.. change of approach, an Older and wiser character now.. SCROOGE!!! Bah Humbug!!..
"Christmas, what ******' Christmas... Christmas is Cancelled....GRRRRRR
