That moment when an HR leader emails a dick pic to his HR entire team. He claims it was for his wife. Word on the street is that it was meant for a specific female on the team. He forgot to DELETE EVERYONE ELSE’S NAME.  Suddenly he had plenty of free time to spend with his wife. Have always wondered if she knew why!?… Read More

Long story…short. Got a call, which led to an investigation, which led to a job-protected leave, which finally led to a termination!

First month on the job and got a call: a married restaurant manager had taken a hostess out to his car to listen to a CD of the manager and his wife having sex overlayed with techno music. And no, this was not 1994!

The investigation ensues… Read More

A manager needed some references checked right away. He called in the information over the phone. I jotted it down on a post it and passed it off to my office mate, who offered to check the reference for me since I was in the middle of something.

I get back to what I’m doing. The next thing I hear is her asking if someone named “Krystal” had worked for them previously. “Yes, Krystal Burgers,” she repeats. I all but fall out of my chair in hysterics and hang up the phone for her as I try to ga… Read More

I received a call from a General Manager because a young man working for him would not remove his wig because it’s sexist and racist. “Ok… let’s change our approach,” I thought. So we created a policy stating that wigs must be restrained in the same manner as natural hair.

Two weeks later, I get a phone call from an upset guest stating that a “very unattractive lady” told her “she” was too pregnant for this $h*t! Needless to say, we have parted ways.

Thank goodness we don’t need to … Read More

I used to manage a Blockbuster video store. After one particularly awful interivew, I walked the candidate out toward the parking lot and the shoplifting detection alarms began to sound. It turned out that the candidate stuffed three DVDs in hus suit jacket before being called to the office for an interview. He did not get the job. Nor did he get Mama Mia, Fools Gold, or High School Musical 3 for that matter!… Read More

From WWLTV.com: A fired sheriff’s office employee, who reportedly died in 1999, was actually using another woman’s identity to earn a six-figure salary before she was caught.

Prosecutors say White had listed on her resume that she obtained a bachelor’s degree from Tulane University and a master’s degree from Hebrew University in Jerusalem. Investigators say White was hi… Read More
