A few months ago I decided to look for other employment. WAY too many hours and whole months without a day off. Couldnt ever get out to shoot. Decided to bag it and find another job. Anyway I found a job and started last week as the maintenance manager for a big packaging company in Charlotte. On Monday , three days into it one of my mechanics came in and asked for the whole last two weeks of December off to go to Arkansas to visit his wifes family. Before I said NO the first thing that came out of my mouth was
"Arkansas? Was she your sister or your cousin before the wedding?"
He started screaming at me and running down the hallway yelling at the top of his lungs for HR as fast as he could. Within 10 minutes I see whats going down and I'm on the phone making a few calls to my peeps. At 4PM the HR manager came in and canned me as expected. Ive never been fired before. My personality works fine in some places but its not for everyone. In any case I spent half the day on the phone yesterday and landed a better job in a brand new facility running maintenance and engineering. Starts Monday. I hope I see that little SOB walk through my door looking for a job some day.
