I hired a new employee 3 weeks ago.

 

He hadn’t been receptive to constructive criticism and had a giant ego that led to difficulty during training.

 

I had a conversation with him Friday morning about his cell phone use violating our cell phone policy and that we needed to come up with a solution that put him in compliance and satisfied his need to “be available for emergencies.”

 

Rather than have the discussion he stormed out in disgust and quit.

 

As I was emptying the office fridge I saw the lunch he forgot to take with him and ate it for dinner.

 

There’s no point to this thread other than to hopefully elicit a chuckle at my pettiness.

Was the meal any good? ?

Sounds like Kushner!

When doing a fridge purge at work, we found a package of deli ham that had gone really bad. Looking at the dates on the package, and the store it was bought at, we realized it was from a co-worker who'd been fired; the date on the package was the date they fired him, he must've bought it on the way into work that day.

Reminds me many years ago when I hired a young, young programmer - gorgeous guy, long blonde hair, built; my office was on the second floor with a window overlooking the employee parking lot. I had arrived a little early, sipping my coffee and was gazing out the window, I saw him drive in, park, get out and stand by his car for a few minutes. Dude was taking a couple of last hits off a joint. Wha? He comes in, I pull him aside. High as fuck. Of course this was back in the dark ages when there was no point in keeping him, no matter how hot or how much I lusted after him, or how well he could code, I’m sure he inhaled.
