Let me off this ride NOW
August 25th, 2010 08:55 pmToday marked the shortest time that someone has been in my employment. Currently I am interviewing for drivers. My morning interviewee was not much of an option - no car of his own, 6 points on his driving record and a one-year recent probation on a drug charge. Since my afternoon interviewee seemed like big improvement, I hired him. The HR lady spent 45 minutes getting our new hire squared away so that he could start work tomorrow morning.
But not for long!
A mere 15 minutes after leaving the building, the guy called and left a message for me ... he didn't want start until mid-September!
/facepalm
Another /boggle moment came from my boss when she announced to me that I could hire the shift supervisor that I need ... but only after MORE justification was done by this Friday. Thinking that this would mean that I could at least set the guy up to start on Monday, she let me know that's not the case.
A bit of good news did come my way today ... my attorney FINALLY got in touch with the ex's lawyer. After 2 very minor tweaks to the divorce decree, it is being sent back to other lawyer who will deliver in person to the court. No news yet on the schedule for repayment of the money that the ex owes me though.
