Apparently there are two things going around where I used to work. The first is that ex-boss heroically turned the assaulting clowns away as clients and told them, "You are not welcome here anymore!" and he should be cheered on for that. Ummmm, no.

The second, and most galling thing that my ex manager (someone I was friends with for a long time,) is telling people that no one ever gave ex-boss an ultimatum about firing me. That all the clowns had done was to call him up and say, "I think you should be aware or what your employee said about us," (reminder: IT WAS NOT ABOUT WHERE I WORK,) and that in doing so I had broken client confidentiality (reminder: IT WAS NOT ABOUT WHERE I WORK, as where I worked was never mentioned, nope, not even once,) and that it was his decision to let me go based on that.

Uh huh. Without even asking me if I had even said any such things. Just by taking their word. And they hadn't badgered him or anything.

Which explains (though not at all,) what he meant when he said to me, "They're just giving me too much of a headache and I have no choice but to let you go, even though I value you as an employee. I'm sorry, I don't have a choice." *click*

So yeah, so now my ex manager is telling people that I had said things that I didn't say, and that ex-boss never kowtowed to those people.

She also told the girl in question--get this--"When those clowns come back in, it's our goal to protect you. It's all about keeping YOU safe from them."

WHEN they come back in. They are obviously still allowed back in as clients. And lemme ask this: If they're so sure that the girl needs to be protected from them, why isn't everyone being offered that protection?

Is this establishment messed up or what?

I'm glad as hell I'm out of there, and I'm also adding a stat counter to log IP addresses of anonymous people. Probably a bit too late for that, but at least I'll know, since they're probably already hanging around here.

I'm sadly not surprised about the manager, since she's been making up shit before this, and I'm sure they're trying to cover their asses. But still sucks to hear about people slandering your name.

Again, I'm glad you're out of there.

Yup. I'm breathing a huge sigh of relief. The good thing is that the people who really know me there know that she is full of it.

have i mentioned that your (i hope?) ex-friend is a stupid bitch? :D

and yeah they are idiots. is their business going to fail for rejecting a couple of clients? that's a perk of private business...you have the goddamn right to refuse service to whoever you want, for whatever reason you want.

You're too right.

You know, a lot of people have been bringing up the fact that I was getting paid a lot, and so was the one girl who left to care for her father and get her life together, was promised a job on her return at any time, and then was denied it by same ex-manager. Who, by the way, left me to tell the girl that her job was not, in fact, waiting for her.

Interesting.
