So relaying the message to my manager she lost it and ended up firing him. He got this job two weeks ago...


So what I want to know from you is what kind of stupid people do you know or have witnessed?

Imagine if rather than fired, your manager did nothing. Then, gave them a raise around Christmas.

That's how my father has been managing things for a decade. The company now owes him over 200,000 dollars due to him keeping employees while refusing to pay himself. Add that he has my mother involved as free labor on taxes and financial work...and until recently had kept the person hired to do that (who was very mentally unstable and cited multiple times as a reason good employees left, because she made the office "like high school cliches") on out of fear she'd take him to court due to her disability.
Add a host of other things.

I think at some point "idiot" becomes "insane"
