And.... Cut!
And.... Cut! This day is a wrap! I'll be leaving the footage on the cutting room floor as this day is a day I would like to never revisit again. The company updated my hiring database over the weekend and it was a complete nightmare trying to navigate this morning. It was INFINITELY more enjoyable to have to muddle my way through the process in front of the applicant who just 'showed up' at my office for her background check. Fantastic! There is a reason why people tell you to call and make an appointment. I've done a lot of hiring over the years... But this chic took the cake. "Ok, i'm going to need you to log in using the same information you used to create your application." "I don't have that info." "I can't go forward with the hiring process unless you can log in and provide the information I need to do your background check." Insert Cricket Chirping Here "Do you understand what I'm telling you. If you are unable to log in, we are done here. You don't get hired." "Oh.... Ok." She turned and started typing in an email and a password. Nothing matched. "Are you sure you are using the right email? Let me look at your application and see what you have listed." I pulled her application and reviewed the email listed with her. "That's a fake email. I used that because I don't want emails." "Ok, here's the thing. Either you provide me with correct, accurate information that we will be using to create your employee profile, or we're done here. You will need to complete a new application that I will then need to create a new job offer for so we can go forward with hiring you. It's up to you, I've already spent the last 30 minutes trying to get you logged into our database with an email that doesn't even exist." Deer in the headlights. "I really need a job, the girl helped me at Michigan Works to fill out my app and I am just not a computer person." Tears. Not one iota of sympathy from me.... I wanted to slap her. She didn't want a job.... She wanted someone to coddle her through whatever the hell she thought was happening. This is definitely a woman that has spent the majority of her life manipulating people with tears. I left her sitting in the conference room and told her to find me across the hall in my office when she was done. I would then walk her through the background. I think the best part of my day was when I stopped by the ex's house to pick up my . She was running around, throwing attitude, and being a shit like normal. And then she handed me a baggie with a pork chop in it. "Dad made you a pork chop." You just never know where the highlight of your day will come. He always was a much better cook than I was.... It was one of the best tasting pork chops I've ever had. Ugh.... |

With my luck if I had ever pulled that kind of stunt while applying for a job, they would have had me arrested instead of hiring me! Sheesh....what the hell was that girl thinking? I guess she had some sort of skills if you hired her. Now if the wizard would only give her a brain......

Why would any company want to hire her?

My shit day started when my alarm clock went off and I soon realized I'd never set my clock forward. Considering the number of times I hit snooze each morning, this is not acceptable.

Hi secret_lade I enjoyed this read, yet again the silver lining is there if we are open to it so many people would have just lost it and not had the patience you had and, in the end, you were rewarded when I have a tough day I long for my "feel good" foods, kinda like wearing your fave jeans or top or whatever when you get home fish or shrimp ceviche, or "ramen" noodles with a little cut up chicken or ham, one egg, some mushrooms... just sayin' we implemented a major change last week, we didn't break anything, but, our stakeholders are still analyzing and kicking the tires, next month, we go with phase II. cant wait it usually takes 2+ months to get a developer up to speed with what we do here, so when we lose people, it's crazy, we've lost 4 people in the last 4 months, yikes have a great day hmm Pink Floyd - "The Final Cut" Through the fish-eyed lens of tear stained eyes I can barely define the shape of this moment in time And far from flying high in clear blue skies I'm spiraling down to the hole in the ground where I hide If you negotiate the minefield in the drive And beat the dogs and cheat the cold electronic eyes And if you make it past the shotgun in the hall Dial the combination, open the priest hole And if I'm in I'll tell you (what's behind the wall) There's a kid who had a big hallucination Making love to girls in magazines He wonders if you're sleeping with your new found faith Could anybody love him Or is it just a crazy dream? Fantastic.... If everything worked the way the power point states it will. I continue to trudge forward, though.

Why would any company want to hire her? When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro. The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.
