Search Results: asking what's wrong

I'm asking if you would ever pass up on someone even if you're confident in the short term because you feel like you wouldn't be good enough in the long term. If so, please share your experience. What were/are you confident/unconfident about?

Maybe you're confident for whatever reason at first impressions, maybe you're at least somewhat good looking with a few good jokes but in the long term you're just broke, irresponsible or boring.

Maybe you're just really good with words in the beginning because you've gone on lots of first dates but you always get it wrong on following dates.

My co-worker did deserve his 1 week suspension as he got frustrated and broke a pizza screen. But he was relieved he wasn't fired and could return to work the next week.

However when the new schedule came out, he wasn't on it. Throughout that week he tried calling and texting our boss asking what's going on. He got no responses. She never told him to come in or anything.

After not getting any responses my co-worker physically went in. But had to go in the next day because our boss wasn't there. The next day he went in and our boss said he's fired. She could have fired him 3 weeks ago instead of suspending him so he knew to look for other employment.

He admits he deserved the suspension. But he didn't deserve having our boss make him believe he still had a job at the end of his suspension.

I'm not surprised by this, because our boss is known to use her position to punish all of us. Even if she thinks you did something wrong and you defend yourself. She'll cut people's hours that make innocent mistakes.

People quit there all the time because of how she controls us knowing we need a paycheck. She also calls us stupid, idiots, and retards behind our backs. We know this because we all have traded stories of her talking about each other.

I just think it's wrong making him believe he still had a job just to fire him. With all the open jobs available, he could have been starting a new job and not have to worry about having money to pay his bills. I really feel with her track record, she did it to punish him more than he was suppose to be.

Oh and she has her daughter and son-in-law working there, and times out orders with the bigger tips so they can take those deliveries and the big tips.

I use to think my other co-workers were being paranoid. But I see everything is true.
