Hi folks, welcome back to the show.
Today at work was stressful. Sales were WAY down, labor was WAY high and I had to fire a great employee because he threatened ANOTHER female employee. Only one week after I threatened his job for the EXACT same thing and suspended him for 3 days.
The sad sloopy part is when I told him he was fired he started crying his head off and threw himself all over me. I physically threw an arm up and told him to get the fuck off me.
This kid was great at every station but dough. He was always on time and wanted more and more hours. But after 3 write ups in ONE DAY last week for cursing with customers in the lobby, insubordination and threatening a female, he should have gotten the point. Today I heard he threatened another chick who works for me and I couldnt take his shit anymore. I told him he was making ME look like an ass because I told such high praises of his smarts, grades in school, respect, lack of ghettoness......and he makes me look like a poor judge of character.
I hated like hell to fire him but I am sick of hearing his name out of everyone elses mouth always being followed by a complaint.
I will gladly give him a good reference and hope he learns from this mistake but he had been told MANY times to cut the shit out. The I'm sorry's and it was a joke's are getting old and dont cut it anymore. I'm sticking to my guns and cutting him loose.
When he left my office another employee brought me a cigarette.
